Is anyone else getting frequent crashes with Firefox Quantum ?

I didn't think Quantum (alias Firefox 57, I think) runs under XP; I
thought 52 was the last that would.

[LONG explanation - way over my head - snipped]
Bill's attempt to explain to me also read.

So, are you (Paul and Andy) saying "Quantum" - alias Firefox 57 or
beyond, I think - _will_ install on XP, but will then crash later?

I had assumed that the versions that aren't guaranteed to work on XP -
i. e. 53 on - wouldn't even install under it. Which was then what was
puzzling me about Andy asking the above question here in the XP 'group.

A biochemist walks into a student bar and says to the barman: "I'd like a pint
of adenosine triphosphate, please." "Certainly," says the barman, "that'll be
ATP." (Quoted in) The Independent, 2013-7-13


I use Ubuntu, but was looking for some feedback.

I know there are far many more Windows users than Linux.

Wasn't aware that FF stopped being able to be installed on Win XP.
