The problem is they apparently really value having cross device syncing between desktop and phone, and dislike Firefox on mobile a bit due to speed. Idk I mean yeah I think chromium browsers on android are technically faster (seems to me at least) but with no ads it's way better
Good news, there is cross device syncing. You just have to make a Firefox account. That might be a no go for some folks, but it is an option. If Firefox on mobile is slower, I have not noticed the difference. Have they just refused to try it?
I think they know about the cross device syncing but yeah think it's too slow. Idk how long it's been since they used it.
There is an issue I've had with Firefox on Android that I've tried to fix but haven't been able to, where the first time I load a website in like... An hour or 2, it takes a long time to load. After that everything is pretty quick but the first load after the app has been suspended (is my guess) is slow
Would it be interesting to y'all if I wrote about how to capture performance profiles on Firefox for Android so that you can report bugs to developers?
Yes that would actually be very helpful! I've had trouble doing that on the android version, and I have heard that can help show what exactly is causing the issue. I have heard some settings on ublock can cause this (which I have tried tinkering with)
