Good for you. Meanwhile I just had to restart Firefox because it pegged a CPU core at 100% and wouldn't refresh.

And this was after nuking the configs and doing an "sudo apt purge firefox && sudo apt install firefox"

No offense, but I use Firefox across windows, Linux, macOS, and Android without any problems. I suspect you're seeing hardware issues or just trolling. Firefox may not be perfect but shouldn't behave the way you're describing. I agree it's not as fast as blink based browsers, but the issues you're calling out are not common unless your system is doing something weird to break it.

I don't agree with assuming he is trolling.

Well I guess he could open an issue if that’s the case?
