Firefox on android has genuinely become decent af and quite quick. I've been reporting a view bugs i've had on android and it seemed the GPU on some phones was causing stuter. They've solved all of that .
Still some basic features I wish they had though (Tab stacking plz)
I kinda killed chrome from my phone using adb and ff is really decent on android !!
On my phone the new firefox for android is much, much slower than the old one, even though it rarely has any tabs open (because I barely use it). Old firefox with a few dozen tabs is much more performant for me.
Old Firefox - are you talking about version >79, with no security updates and designed for popular phones of 2019 like the Galxy A10 with 2GB RAM?
8 tabs on the latest FF android uses like 900MB RAM which isn't a problem for most 2023 devices with 6+GB
Yes, that one.
My phone has 3 GB of RAM. Though I think there might be other issues too, because it's UI is lagging even after just opening it.
