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
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
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. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
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.

To be fair, I blame the phone more than Firefox for the performance, though at the end of the day, it's still slower than Chrome.
I went cheap and low spec (OnePlus Nord N30, because it had a headphone jack AND sdcard) for my last phone replacement and, for 99% of the things I do, it's perfectly fine.
That last 1% is kind of annoying and browsing falls into it.
It's a case where loading a bookmark from the home screen will crash about 1/3rd of the time with Firefox and will routinely take long enough that I'm sitting there annoyed at how long it's taking to load. No specific sites are better/worse, but it's all mostly self-hosted stuff: redlib, Lemmy, PeerTube, Firefish, etc.
It's a case of it being basically instant for Chrome, and 5+ seconds for Firefox - and more like 20-25 in the case of Firefish to actually load all the content - so I'm assuming Google is doing some background pre-loading or something that's causing the discrepancy.
Aah. Have you filed a bug report on it with the info? Maybe they'll fix it if it is common?

I think the homepage can be made lighter by using the customize homepage option and removing unwanted stuff.
