I-Firefox Community Forum

When I am working on the internet, I often open a new tab, click the bookmark for where I want that to go to. Then go back to the prior tab I was using, while the new tab loads. EXCEPT, now I am finding, the non-active tab is NOT loading the page I instructed it to. So when I go back to that TAB, expecting to see the page I wanted, loaded, instead I get the little circle and still have to wait for it to load. Why is Firefox doing this?

sites do not open or take a very long time showing waiting for fonts.googleapis.com on bottom left corner.

I have searched the web with and got answers related to Firefox 98 or suggested settnigs that do not clear the problem

Hi,

Any suggestions for Firefox being really slow? Slow loading webpages. This has been going on for about a month. Maybe longer. I have the same issue in Troubleshoooting mode. Firefox is updated. Cleared cache and cookies. Rebooted. On a Mac laptop.

I keep using Safari and I'm about to more over permanently.

Thanks!

firefox has always opened instantly when i click it, but within the past few weeks it takes 10 to 15 seconds to get going. computer restarts don't seem to make any difference. any thoughts?

My fire fox which I have used for years is loading page very slowly and then freezes some times but just tried my Edge Browser and its as fast as my fire fox years ago. what can I do to speed it up

I have Windows 11 version 25H2, and Firefox 145.0.2 I'm having problems connecting to some sites, e.g. Amazon.fr The problem is the same on other sites, i.e. it takes a long, long time to connect to a site or within a site. I have tried various solutions such as: running Avast Clean Up, restarting my computer, clearing the history in Firefox before trying to connect but nothing seems to help. What's gone wrong and what's the solution?

I've had Firefox as my main browser on my Macbooks for over 20 years. It is becoming increasingly frustrating working on something and realizing the computer is slowing down when loading websites, only to realize there is yet another update that requires the restarting of the browser. This is especially annoying when on a Zoom meeting for instance, and trying to open a website.

I usually have 80+ tabs open across 4-5 windows. When restarting the browser, I now have to open each tab to log into whatever site I was in.

Why does Firefox have to do SOOOOOOO many frequent updates that require restarting the browser, and why does it have to slow down your computer when there is an update?

It's like you have no choice but to update it. Would it be possible to NOT slow down your computer, but give some kind of notification, say by email, when there is an important update?

SUPER FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About a third of the time when I go to a new site I have to "reload tab" once or twice. Sometimes it will open the site and then stall and I have to "refresh". You keep upgrading so I assume my software is up to date.
