*Slaps roof

This baby can run so many ads at full 4k, and leave you with just enough resources and bandwidth for 480p video.

This meme is so relatable. I got sick of Chrome and made the switch to Firefox this week, and haven't looked back.

Do you feel a speed/reactivity difference on Google websites (gmail, YouTube, ...) if you use any?

[–] Mozami@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Not really. The only thing I noticed was that is consumes less CPU.

Firefox is underrated. The only issue I have is sites that are only optimized for Chromium, and especially edge. A lot of businesses and medical websites only develop for and test for 1 browser, and it used to be Internet Explorer, but now it's Edge.

Then there's Microsoft Websites too. I don't know if it's like that anymore, but I always had to use Edge instead of Firefox to subscribe to or cancel Xbox Game Pass in the past.

Firefox is so shit on mobile that it reloads every time I switch to other apps. I once tried to fill up a very long form, and when I tried to look up some information on my notepad app, I switched back to ff it reloaded and all my progress was erased.

It's a bug that has existed for years, and they never bother to fix it.

So I switched to chrome + adblocking DNS on my phone and pc and I never looked back.

edit: Lemmy is becoming circlejerky like Reddit who would have thought. Facts downvoted have you guys even visited the link above it's a widespread issue. My phone is 8gb sd855+ with battery optimization disabled for FF mobile app. This is why I rarely engage.

It was the same for me until I changed phone Now the issue disappeared

[–] wakamo@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Nope still the same. The issue is very common. 8gb, sd855+, no optimization for firefox mobile and still reloads everytime I switch apps.

It happened to me when I still used and old Moto g7 play with only 200mb free of ram so the phone needed to kill it it in order to load the other app, making Firefox "refresh" itself.

But that's the only time it happened to me.

I mean yeah but my phone is 8gb ad855+ and battery optimization disabled but is still reloading. It's a widespread issue visit the link above or try googling it.
