    I didn’t realize people were still using Chrome. I thought most jumped ship a few years ago.

      Not trying to be rude, but really? You thought that “most people jumped ship” on a browser that still has over 70% of the desktop browser marketshare in 2023?

      Hell on mobile browsers it is just over 60% marketshare. The people that “jumped ship” on that one all own iPhones.

      This is just a silly statement.

      I used Firefox for years, then switched to Chrome for a bit. It ate up 60% of my RAM for no fucking reason, so I switched back to Firefox a few years ago. Fuck Chrome

      I currently have 32 tabs open in Edge, albeit most of them have been suspended.

      I also have FFXIV running at 40-60 fps. I could start encoding a video right now, and Edge would slow down minimally, if at all.

      But for some reason, Firefox has always been slower for me. Basically everyone’s experience with slow Chrome is my experience with slow Firefox. I truly don’t understand why.

        Maybe give Firefox another shot if you feel like it. They have done a lot of improvements to preformance issues in recent times and for me it’s not noticeable anymore between Chrome and Firefox which has been great.
