An anonymous reader quotes a report from Linuxiac:
> Mozilla has [1]released Firefox 152, the latest update to its popular open-source web browser, with updated settings, improved media controls, experimental JPEG XL support, and various platform-specific fixes for desktop and Android. A key update is the redesigned Firefox Settings page, which [2]now features clearer groupings, improved navigation, and a more streamlined structure for easier customization . The release also expands built-in spellchecker support, adding dictionaries for Croatian, English (UK), Georgian, Persian, Slovenian, Tajik, Tamil, Tibetan, Turkish, Welsh, and Xhosa. [...] Importantly, Firefox now offers experimental support for JPEG XL, an image format with improved compression over WebP, JPEG, PNG, and GIF. Users can enable JPEG XL in the Firefox Labs panel within Settings.

Mobile Firefox crashes on me multiple times a day when processing heavy JavaScript. I like UBO but this is ridiculous

Yeah. I've used mobile FF on Android for years. I have no problems like you're experiencing.
