Firefox for Android hangs about half the time when I clear data on I exit of the browser.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? :?:

The problems are severe when using Android Q beta and any available versions of Firefox. The standard Firefox for android will just shut down immediately. The nightly as of yesterday will load but is unable to send the confirm to synch to get your bookmarks, passwords, etc. It was so bad I had to reload Android Pie.

Well I'm using Android version 8 and I'm having issues with the standard version of Firefox for Android. And I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox and I'm still having issues, and if Firefox completely hangs then one way I found to fix it is to go Firefox settings and clear private data.
