Hi.

Firefox is very slow. If i do the same browsing, in Chrome, there is no problems.

Reinstall Firefox, and all the guides, is tested - no luck.

I really love Firefox, and have used it, for many years, but this slow experience - that will scare me away.

Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla. Download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Can you also provide examples of what is slow? What OS? What Desktop? X11 or Wayland?
