firefox release summary score: 1.86, Tuesday 1.88

• Not too much to report in 65.0.2

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.

fennec beta summary score: 19.99, Tuesday 19.98
