- new startup crash in 69 cycle: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1571516
- needs investigation
- filed a follow-up bug for the Linux browser crash rate issue which 69.0.1 ultimately didn't solve: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1585383
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.
