Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don't be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don't post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don't post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don't accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

I don't say this because I'm a Firefox user, but it has always been faster for me than any chromium based browser. Especially, on heavy sites like YouTube.

It's infuriating how slow firefox (and its forks) is slow on my android phone but fast on my windows pc.

Ps: I've connected via same network still firefox is slower to load pages that browsers like brave, chrome.

This was happening to me until I used fennec and I no longer experienced lag

How is Firefox behaving on macOS? I use Big Sur on a MacBook Pro 2014.

Huh. I main Firefox. It definitely feels slower to me than Chrome based browsers. Maybe I should do a fresh install.
