Release

firefox release summary score: 1.91, Tuesday 1.94

• Filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1531346 to account for a crash that didn't have a bug. Seems to happen with online banking
• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1487194 continues to be the top browser crash. Looks like an effort is progressing to try to get something landable for 66

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.
