Firefox is dead to me – and I'm not the only one who is fed up

This article reads like a one star review of a recipe because someone swapped out all the core ingredients and got mad it didn't taste good.

Firefox has been fine for me, tons of tabs yet doesn't use much memory. It isn't slow, seems the same as any other browser.

The list of places mentioned in the article I would never go to anyways so I can't compare.

Funny how the list is the shittiest places on the internet, makes you wonder what those sites are actually doing to seem to slow a browser....

This sounds like a piece written by someone hurt in the place that is highest, when plucking strawberries.

What a whining "opinion", and opening up for others to whine too...

You know what? Not a single one, can find a browser that does everything you want, the way you want it done, and only that. _Now, grow up, and then start influencing the best browser, who has fought for decades for users rights and privacy. The reason they have to compromise a bit, is because users just don't care - in general.

FF's performance on Meta sites in general is terrible. Slow loading at best, other times they don't load at all. On my Macs, the FirefoxCP RDD process periodically gets into a state where FF stops responding to mouse clicks and has to be force quit. There's an about:config setting to deal with that but it doesn't work for me. Frankly, I don't think cramming in some AI crap is going to fix any of this.

As an alternative, I've been using Waterfox.
