Why is Firefox so much slower than Chrome now

[Iblameher]

I swear like 2 years ago, I did a side by side and the difference was negligible 

Now, it's like night and day 

Absolutely ludicrous 

Same issue for you guys or is this on my end?

[You're dead]

its fine for me

Its like that for years.

they are the same for me. maybe you have some plugins that make it slower. or firefox is worse with add-ons. When I use both of them plain I feel no difference.

I use unlock and dark reader but that's about it 

I'll check if that makes a diff when I get home

I am using firefox 95% of the time and i had an issue only one time a couple weeks ago where it would eat all my ram for some reason and stopped working

Other than that it's working fine

[Altruist]

works fine for me. never used chrome in my life so can't compare, though. maybe you were messing with the add-ons and installed some trash which now became incompatible

i mean i m talking out of my ass, i have 0 clue about this shit

Memory leaks I guess, furryfox was notorious for this 

Used to be horrendous, it's better now
