Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:3 mwolfe]:
 > Before, tabs could see what other tabs were doing/had done. On Disqus,
 when I logged in, every other tab (previously opened) knew I had logged
 in, and status changed from 'log-in' to 'logged-in'. No more. Tabs don't
 know what's happened in other tabs. Disqus sets cookies. Disqus is a site
 that manages comments for many sites with content, so, when one signs in
 on the Disqus tab, this information is blocked from all the other content
 tabs. Changing to 'allow 3rd party cookies' allowed my log-in on the
 Disqus log-in tab to be seen by the content tabs with the item and the
 comments, so now I can comment, provided I allow 3rd party cookies (but
 sometimes that crashes Tor Browser).

 Interesting. So, we disabled 3rd party cookies in Tor Browser 7 as well.
 There might be something else that changed. What do you mean by "but
 sometimes that crashes Tor Browser"? It should work even, though we don't
 recommend that as we have not checked Mozilla's first-party isolation of
 cookies yet. Maybe there is a bug with that feature? Could you open a new
 ticket with a crash report, so we could investigate it? Thanks!
