After 10 years... my users expect an end-user-friendly, reliable browser. Sadly, IE or even Chrome now match that description better than Firefox 63+.
(Feel free to break these into separately-trackable issues, if you like)
1. Please purge ALL non-essential animations currently built into the product (as opposed to a website, obviously.) All animations *on the Firefox-generated tabs* are extraneous, CPU-robbing and distracting. End-users expect a reliable, consistent, non-distracting product.
2. Don't require CSS (code) changes to work around product defects (like dysfunctional on-tab animations). Provide a user-friendly setting to block *all* Firefox-provided animation effects, some of which can cause medical-related reactions for some users (I used to be in that category).
3. Fix the damn yellow-bar warnings, once and for all. "A web page is slowing down your browser" is NOT a helpful diagnostic; but we've been seeing it for years now. Please replace it with something that will lead customers to figure out how to solve it. For starters, report WHAT site is triggering the yellow-bars.
4. Please don't assume users all have high-end CPUs; do some release testing with (e.g.) Celeron 900-based laptops. (Yes, you can "subcontract" those tests to me ;)
