MetaMask Add-on Performance Issue on Mozilla Firefox

The MetaMask browser extension is extremely slow and unresponsive when used in Mozilla Firefox. Actions such as opening the wallet, switching networks, approving transactions, or interacting with dApps take a long time or freeze temporarily.

This issue occurs only in Firefox. MetaMask works smoothly and as expected on other browsers (for example, Chromium-based browsers) and all other websites and browser extensions load and function normally in Firefox. This suggests the problem is specific to the MetaMask add-on behavior within Firefox rather than general browser performance.

Impact:

Delayed transaction approvals

Lag while opening the extension

Poor user experience when interacting with dApps

Productivity impact when using Web3 applications

Hi Roman,

This forum is intended to help users with Mozilla products, such as Firefox, while your question is related to a third-party extension. As a moderator, I'm going to mark this thread as off-topic and lock the thread since it is not a subject covered in the support forum. Please see Mozilla Support rules and guidelines.

For your issue, here's what you can do:

  • Report it to the extension developers. Find the extension on addons.mozilla.org, click on Support website / Homepage and follow the process described there.
  • Report the extension to the Mozilla Add-ons team. You can do it either from the Extensions and themes page or from the extension's AMO page.
