Hello, curious situation with Mozilla? I am not developing or
debugging at the moment but merely just using. Last week i updated
from FreeBSD13.1 to 13.4. Everything working in 13.1 but my FireFox so
outdated it was being rejected. After installing everything from
packaging and getting Xorg working everything seemed fine. XFCE
installed and ran with a few tweaks. Both FF and Thunderbird would not
start unless safe mode was invoked. I disabled composting in both and
they start and work perfectly sans acceleration. So after checking
around i find numerous posts about failing graphics stacks not being
able to connect. This may not affect u but it is definitely a thing.
Is this the end of Xorg and should we be using wayland?

The grass isn't greener in wayland either. Even on Linux systems, I've
seen issues with thunderbird running very slow or hanging for periods.
It seems related to the message viewer code.
