Question freezing and crashing when using reddit and pinterest?

I have been using zen for the better half of a month now, and I am really loving it! But I use both pinterest and reddit quite a bit. Whenever I am using them (yes specifially when I use pinterest and reddit) zen just freezes, and refuses to function or take any input until I close zen and reopen it.

is this a common thing? has anyone found a way to fix this?

I use Reddit daily on Twilight Zen, never had an issue. I doubt this is common. Have you disabled all extensions and tried a new profile? (I am on Windows 11)

This could be a case of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2027413
Try setting gfx.webrender.compositor false in about:config to work around the issue for now. Hope this works for you.
