I totally uninstalled Firefox an hour ago and reinstalled it. It had been crashing 4-5 times a day for the past few months. Not sure why.

Strange -- it has been solid as a rock for me for years.

I went through about a month of Firefox and Sea Monkey crashes before I discovered it was a RAM problem. As soon as I replaced the RAM, the problem was over. That was a couple of years back, so I don’t know if the problem is still relevant to today’s browsers. You might want to look into it.

Firefox frequently crashes (freezes solid) for me when or shortly after I close a tab in which I have played an Adobe Flash video. Fortunately the automatic session management save and restore feature works well, and I get more or less all my tabs restored correctly when I restart.
