Firefox works bad on some sites [SOLVED]

#1 Post by Scorpion »

Yesterday firefox stops working properly on facebook and instagram.
It freezes for a little while scrolling down on instagram. And while I am watching videos on facebook.
I have some extensions installed.
I also have 40 tabs open and custom themes.
But I did not install nothing new.

Code: Select all

firefox --v
Mozilla Firefox 68.9.0esr
Debian 10

:D

The speed of web page loading and quality of video streaming depends on many factors, one of them is the server load ;)

The page is loaded but it freezes for a little while scrolling.
I can see the cursor changing but the rest is stuck.

I also have this message at the bottom of the window that says "Mozilla firefox seems slow... to... start".
It works fine on other sites, when I launch it takes a little to open but this seems normal.

It can be that one of those add-ons or the custom theme is slowing down the Firefox.

Besides, I wasn't joking about the server load: Instagram is Facebook -> same server farm, which can be overloaded during weekends.
Another possibility is that they have changed something in the code, causing a regression in performance.

Have You tried some other browser, like f.e. Chromium?

I think that is normal for Face Book, it has all ways been like that for me, even with out 40 tabs open, I usually only have 2 or 3 tabs open. If it was all websites or most, then I might blame the browser, but honestly the only one that is bad , out of all the sites I go to , is Face Book......
