Chrome user returning to Firefox here; I'm experiencing an issue where most pages would take at least 4 to 6 seconds to load, especially for heavy media sites like YouTube which could take 6 seconds for it to be barely usable, and 10 or 13 seconds for it to finish loading. My internet speed is 1gb at most and 800 Mbps at the least.

It loads sites like Reddit pretty fast, like 3-5 seconds interestingly. It's largely YouTube and other sites where the pages load infuriatingly slowly, and Chrome Mask did not helped with this.

Here are the things I did: Refreshed Firefox, started in Troubleshoot mode, installed Chrome Mask for YouTube (Did not work), disabled DNS, closed all foreground apps except Firefox, used a different profile and enabled/disabled hardware acceleration.

Final notes, it says I use Microsoft Defender Antivirus but I am actually using Malwarebytes. I also use uBlock Origin which is the entire reason why I permanently switched from Chrome to Firefox.

Greetings, I have a problem with Firefox taking too long to load websites after login, while Edge loads websites immediately. It happens every time I lift the laptop lid and login. I have restarted Windows 11 and tested the load times of Firefox and Edge a while ago by going to Google. Edge loaded Google after 5 seconds, while Firefox 3 minutes and 25 seconds. That's long. Sometimes Firefox loads a webpage 10 minutes after login.

What could be the issue here and how do I fix it? I have the following extensions and I'm sure that they do not hinder Firefox.

Firefox stops loading pages. I try to browse a webpage and it just keeps loading, but nothing happens (black screen). I open chrome, request the same webpage, it loads immediately. In Firefox, it keeps loading. Sometimes it loads it after 1-2 minutes. Sometimes not. Problem is fixed after restarting firefox, but comes back again after some time.

For the last few months I've been getting slow responses with online applications. When I switch to chrome, it all runs at a normal pace. Specifically with " The Customer Factor"

Going to ANY website, it takes "forever" to load, but after loading normal speed is experienced. One way to get a website to initially load more quickly is to click the "X" which the spinner is going endlessly, then refresh the page, whereupon it will usually load instantly.

The problem is experienced with any and every website. This problem does not occur with Chrome or Edge:

Windows 11, Firefox 142.0.1 64 bit.

My home page is Fox News and Firefox current version is slow opening videos everywhere, but especially on Fox. Any ideas? They open quicker on other browsers but I like Firefox!!!

My computer is running very slowly on Firefox. It takes forever to load anything on Facebook, or my Bank, or any other site where I want to use Firefox. I have DuckDuckGo for search, and that is really slow, too. So I thought that maybe Firefox needs to be updated. But I don't know where to find the Menu Bar. I am 80 years old and don't know the computer "jargon." By coming here I lost your step-by-step directions about what to do AFTER I find the Menu!

My browser worked fine until a few weeks ago. It then slowed considerably in serving pages. Instead of a few seconds, it would take 30 seconds. It has done this consistently since then. I don't recall installing new extensions. My other browsers work normally at normal page speed. The Windows OS seems to work fine as well.

Can anyone think what might be causing this & how to fix it?

My network is pretty fast -

• Download Speed - 76.30 mbps
• Upload Speed - 113.13 mbps
• Idle Latency - 61 ms
• Download Latency - 59 ms
• Upload Latency - 18 ms

Even though this is a pretty fast network connection, my websites on firefox take a long time to load, for example youtube takes like 2 seconds to load, and sometimes some elements of the website do not even load. This is a very annoying problem which I would like a solution for.

I have to resort to using Chrome (yuck) when using Fedex.com. Please fix issues with Firefox and Fedex.com (very, very slow loading) thank you

I'm having trouble signing into to some online news sites especially videos. The screen shows activity without actually loading a video or website site. I can't connect, it just keeps spinning.

Since the last Firefox update, normally used web pages load very slowly or time out. When clicking on a bookmark the page loads very slow so I stop the page from loading and hit refresh and it loads almost instantly like it normally used to do. Any fixes available? Thank you, Dan.

Hi! I’ve noticed that the site with Slider Revolution installed opens quite slowly in my browser. Do you have any idea what this might be related to? In other browsers, it seems to load just fine. Thanks in advance for your help! Link: https://kasiinod-ee.ee/

Hi everyone,

I am facing a strange issue with web browsers on my HP system after a recent Windows update. No matter which browser I use Chrome, Firefox, or even Edge webpages take much longer to load than usual. The connection itself is stable because downloads and streaming work without any problem, but normal browsing feels unusually slow.

I have already cleared the cache, disabled extensions, reset the DNS settings, and restarted the router. The issue still appears across all browsers. This started immediately after the last Windows update, so I am unsure whether this is a compatibility issue, a driver problem, or something in the network configuration.

If anyone has seen this behavior before or knows what additional steps I should check, I would really appreciate your guidance.

Thank you.
