    urghhhhh but firefox just doesn’t perform as well. i tried, i really did. i found a 15 year old (!!) bug affecting svg drawing performance that was fucking up a page i was working on, i’m not imagining it.

    I’m not sure if it’s the same one but i just found a similar bug with a five year old comment saying i guess we’re not fixing it anytime soon… https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483868

    I do have it installed and check in occasionally but it feels like a downgrade when i try to use it as a daily driver.

    is there any way to get a functional de-googled chromium build with settings sync across devices?

        The sentiment feels on point however, that this users experience with Firefox has been poor and issues flagged have not resolved in an eternity. I’ve definitely felt similar exhaustion with other systems.

      I use Firefox on PC and I’m happy with it there. But on my phone Firefox isn’t great. Scrolling and zooming is pretty choppy, not excessively but it shouldn’t be choppy at all.

      Edit: after posting this I tried using Firefox again for a while. I take back the “excessively” part. It is distractingly slow, there’s no reason for it to be that bad

        yeah I really notice the difference. I wish I didn’t, I’d rather use Firefox, but it feels slower and I want my settings syncing between devices
