Recently switched computers and realized that Google maps is running really slow now. Severe stuttering, longer loading times, etc. The site works normally on chromium based browsers (tested edge, chrome, Vivaldi). Anything I can do?

Old PC had Radeon graphics and new has Intel integrated and Nvidia, if that's relevant.

I agree, Maps became almost unusable once I activated canvas blocking. This is likely the culprit, OP

once I activated canvas blocking.

are you using it via an extension or something else?

I use the CanvasBlocker extension in conjunction with Firefox's internal privacy.resistFingerprinting flag, which also restricts canvas access I believe
