    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)

      Yeah Firefox on Android is extremely so for me at times. I’ve never noticed it specifically being on the first page load after a while, but I haven’t been paying that much attention. I use firefox on mobile so that I can install ublock, because when I’ve tried to use a DNS-based solution in the pass I ran into all kinds of issues with battery drain, but the experience does leave a little to be desired at times.
