131.0 Crashing all the time

Since updating to 131.0 I'm experiencing random shutdowns in FF.  There doesn't seem to be a common denominator.  Naturally, I shut down any addition apps running in back ground and it helped some but it still happens.  I use Ad Blocker of course, because if we didn't, it's worse than watching TV these days, with all the ads being shoved down our throats.  I wish I didn't need any of them, but, alas, we're stuck with them.  

Most of the time it's while I'm on Facebook and maybe watching a reel, but it happens when I'm just posting in FB too, without a video running.

I'm at a loss.  Being a long time computer user (Dos 3.2 and on up) I'm keenly aware of how most things work.  However, this has me baffled.  It didn't seem to do it until I upgraded to the current version 131.0 though.

Do you have any suggestions?  I'd prefer to keep my ad blockers on in order to prevent the constant nagging to buy stuff I don't need.  It's annoying and like getting a commercial in the middle of a telephone conversation.  To me, it's private and they're interrupting  my right from being inundated with junk offers of all sorts.

Thank you for assistance.

This is happening to me, too. The browser just randomly stops responding, I can't close or open new tabs, and videos stop. Or, if they do play, the video appears frozen while the audio track continues. Thr picture updates when I resize the window, but only for a single frame.

My specs are:

OS: Windows 11, version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.4249)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900 12-core
RAM: 64 GB (DDR 4)
GPU: NVidia GeForce GTX 1650
Primary storage: WDS100T3X0C-00SJG0 (SSD, 1 TB)

Oh, forgot to also mention my OS is Windows 11, version 23H2 (OS build 22631.4249)
