Yes.
Landon Baker
the web is slow.
Michael Gutierrez
yes, compared to Chromium based browsers
James Sullivan
for those who use firefox only because they like the font rendering:
1. Open Edge
2. Type edge://flags
3. Search for "Enhance text contrast"
4. Set to Enabled, restart

Firefox is not slow. The web is slow. Databases are slow, DNS retrieval is slow. JavaScript is slow. Add-ons are slow. What are you asking of a browser that you feel is the bottleneck in your workflow?
Nicholas Powell
No, "modern" websites are
Camden Edwards
Yes.
They should consider rebuilding the engine.
Nolan Williams
It is. Slow and insecure. I'll only ever use it if ublock actually stops working completely on all chromium forks.
Logan Morgan
Firefox is slow, compare loading time of any complex site to Chrome and it's consistently worse
Firefox itself maintains site charting speed over time (forgot URL) against other browsers and it's slower than Chrome (at least on Linux)
it's nothing controversial, they don't compete on speed but customization and privacy

How much does Microsoft pay you to say this?
Owen White
Looks literally the same.
Noah Jones
being able to drop firefox and not have shitty chrome rendering pays me enough
Andrew Miller
"complex" sites are the problem here
Tyler Carter
maybe but it's not something I notice
Austin Carter
No
Jace Ross
Maybe, but the alternative is faster but made by a company I do not agree with (Google)
Provided, Mozilla has been pretty weird itself but at least their product is alright for my needs
Robert Sanchez
I agree, but they are here to stay, and I don't want laggy browsing with Firefox
Liam Foster
which results in this. All the "complex" stuff on "modern" sites is just botnet that can and should be dumped in the bin completely. The fastest code is code that never runs.

What the fuck?
The EU is unironically saving the internet with that privacy law of theirs.
It is an unintentional side effect.
Benjamin Lee
Dang that looks better, still using chromium and Firefox.
Eli Wright
when people like complain that webpages are slow and laggy, 90% of that is because they're running a few megabytes of ad-botnet JS for every single page.
Samuel Turner
Is that Windows? Because on Linux there is no difference
