Release

firefox release summary score: 2.97, Tuesday 3.32

[philipp] crash pattern looks sane - top crashes dominated by signatures during shutdown

Mobile

• Crash rate is calculated based on usage hours (the time Firefox is actively used).
• Usage hours will be significantly lower on Fennec than on desktop Firefox, so we can't compare mobile rates to desktop rates.

• Release

fennec release summary score: 20.30, Tuesday 20.94

• • Not much to call out for Fennec release. Things are looking good.

• Beta

fennec beta summary score: 34.96, Tuesday 34.92

• • New Fennec beta crash https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1490846. Closed as won't fix due to the fact it is an OOM.

• Nightly

fennec nightly summary score: 33.27, Tuesday 33.40

• • https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1490039 had a 2 day spike and has not been seen since 9.11
