firefox is so laggy nowadays. the scrolling is also weird.

[–] Cabrio@lemmy.world 50 points 2 years ago

Firefox is now faster than Chrome as of the latest benchmarks.

Respectfully disagree, I have no complains about the browser itself. just that lazy web devs don't test on ff, or actually, only on chrome.

Eh... I have absolutely NO PROBLEMS on Windows, Linux and MacOS. You should know that some extensions can cause problems. Try a new profile.

it is not lag as in slow, it has. weird scrolling glitch that make it look like a lag. Definitely not extension, because it happen on clean install too, and it is not only me. Plenty of people have it too if you google it.

On which OS?

Oh shit turn on CNN, a plane just flew onto one of the twin towers!

.... What? Wait, we're not quoting old posts? I dunno man, I know this is a huge "works on my machine", but I really haven't seen Firefox be a problem on any machine in at least, hard minimum, half a decade.

What system are you on that Firefox is laggy? I’ve had no real issues on Windows, Mac, or Linux in the past few years.

Upgrade to a computer built in the 2010s maybe?

[–] Ilgaz@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Core2duo with Nvidia 9400 does very smooth scrolling once you use Wayland. Yes, Linux of course.

[–] johnlobo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

i wish i could use linux on this pc.

[–] Ilgaz@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Business issue or hardware? If it is hardware there is always help, e.g. high level kernel devs cared about my HP boot issue or NetBSD.
