Uninstall plugins you don't need.
Delete your browser history.
Delete your cache.
Delete your cookies.
Don't have 100 tabs open at once.

This is common sense for every browser.

It has too much unnecessary shit with it. They literally remove good feature like tab groups and XLU addons and add bloat or just provide shit alternatives.

because it's botnet garbage

Based Firefox, Chromium shits itself and just loses everything
Even then Firefox crashes a lot when closing it and just shits the bed from time to time, but holds up reasonably well most of the time

Because when they got a million dollars, one of the first things they spent some of it on was to remove the word "slave" from their documentation.

I've tried all of these, only got marginal improvement.

Get an older version of Firefox instead.
Each new version has more bloat than the previous and thus runs slower.

Same thing here, Chromium/Chrome just don't work as good on my machine.
>>
>>53930366
Reinstall then.
>>
>>53928602
Because you're not using Developer Edition. Better performance and it's more stable than the stable branch. Plus you get none of the bloat.
Plus it uses a dark theme by default.
>>53930411
See above. Default Firefox is shit.

The developer edition is ugly as hell.

You probably forgot to enable e10s.
You may also have SSL Observatory enabled in your https everywhere addon. Disable it.

Done. It is now better and logs the same.

this. 120 tabs and no crashes so far with multiple addons

Because womyn are slow and it would be sexist for firefox to be fast since it would benefit men more than womyn.
Check your privileges, shitlord!

Yet another Google shill trying to spread FUD about Firefox.
Don't bother, the majority of /g/ is using and will continue to use Firefox.

>>53933805
Nice try firecuck. Most of /g/ uses the only good browser: palemoon.

I use FF and Chrome for different shit on my ancient laptop. For some reason I can't fun Youtube for shit on FF but it works just fine in Chrome. I used to be a big Firefag but here recently Chrome has been winning me over. It SEEMS lighter and more minimal which is great. I don't know if there's any truth to that as I haven't researched it enough.

Pick none. There are no good browsers.
>>
>>53933928
Too bad its being abandoned, anyways all of the firefox bloat can be disabled in about:config retard.

Will be better soon, when Mozilla produces their real Electron Chrome clone with integrated adblock:

Enjoy and embrace the future of Mozilla becoming a total Google and Javascript bitch like Brave browser is one!

/g/ uses the only true browser: safari. windowfags run version 5 and linuxplebs run version 5 in wine.

Where do you live?

I need to know if you live in a third world country with no education.

It would explain why you seem retarded.

What do you not get? Piece of shit is slow as fuck regardless of configuration or lack of bloat. It IS the bloat.

They care more about "social justice" than speed. I heard they make it slow and shitty on purpose as a way of checking their privilege and dumbing themselves down to the level of women and niggers.

Why is it slow? Same performance as IE11, it can't be faster due to my 3 Mbit connection.

>>53929889
>300
I use different instances of Firefox Portable for doing that, one Firefox for every topic, IE massive link spamming. Also this loads only the addons you need for that specific task.
>>
>>53928602
it is just me or did they fucked up image rendering?

What the heck are you talking about anon.

Firefox Developer Edition. It's a version with better performance without any of the bloat.
