As explained in the title, firefox crashes when I try to open links in other applications like telegram or slack. It asks me to restart or quit the browser, in either choise, the browser stops working. I can't open it again, coz it says that firefox is already running and I can't quit it because I can't see it running, so I have to manually kill the process.
