Slow page loading on Firefox, computer specs below
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.
Specs: CPU: i5-3570k GPU: GTX 1070 Ti RAM: 16gb DDR3 OS: Windows 10 Hard Drive type: SSD
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.

Who are you using for DNS? If Windows Pro version, try testing in Windows Sandbox (VM) to see if you have the same issue. https://www.howtogeek.com/399290/how-to-use-windows-10s-new-sandbox-to-safely-test-apps/
Try this tool to see if you can find a better provider. https://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm
See the load time for youtube and Lexus japan . see screenshot
Here is the add-on I use to see the load time. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/load-time/

Here are my results from doing a traceroute and ping to youtube.com. see screenshot Traceroute is only 9 hops and the ping times are very low.

My OS version is Windows Home Edition. Can VM still be done on that edition?
The DNS I am using is "Cloudfare" according to my settings, and I am using IPv4.
I also installed Load Time and it says it only takes three seconds to load the YouTube homepage. The issue I think is that it takes a while to establish a connection but loading doesn't take long. Could this be something wrong with the browser itself? My network settings or my OS speed?
What the DNS setting in Windows, Firefox I assume is Cloudflare, and what's set on your router? All 3 for me are the same. Doing a traceroute to 1.1.1.1 is 12 hops.
