Hard drive? Firefox loads in under a second on all of my machines, including a nine-year-old desktop and a raspberry pi that’s running off’a SD card. Actually, the pi takes between 1-2 seconds.
So I did check my cached data and it was almost 2 GB. I deleted it and it's running a lot faster now. The reason I never considered that is because I thought that in 2024, deleting browser cache wasn't really needed anymore.
Weird, I’ve never had to do that! Maybe just a weird fuckup on* the program’s side? Stranger things have happened, I suppose!
My partner’s Firefox is firefucked—some sites are just all black, some load super weird, some are unreadable. We know it’s the profile but have been too lazy to fix it… for over a year now. I feel like it’d be easy to fix. New profile, save the bookmarks, done. Yet here we are, using it all fucked up. Netflix and Twitch just crash if we’re not in a private window hahaha.
Dang, that is rough. My dumbass wouldn't have thought to backup my bookmarks but I really hope they are actually saved to my account. I have a lot. Hope y'all get it fixed soon. And lol @ "firefucked"!
Thank you, friend! We don’t use accounts so we’ll have to back up locally. Eventually we’ll fix this! I don’t understand how theirs is so fucked when my 8yo local profile isn’t?
Firefox isn’t perfect but I quit google and also I’m a bit of a furry fuck so it’s all I got, and it’s always been good to me!
I think my bookmarks are tied to my account. I can access my desktop browser ones from my phone. I have had a weird bookmark duplication glitch plague me though. It's just a mess all the way down.
It takes like ten minutes for FF to load for me and I really don't know why.

Just checked and it's installed in /user/bin which is my SSD. But that is just the binary. My SSD isn't exactly new or that fast but still.
Strange! My SSDs on my old machines are old as shit hahaha.
Would reinstalling and creating a new profile help, I wonder?

I also hope your bookmarks are backed up!

Your personal Firefox profile is located in your home folder though. Is that on an SSD too?
My binary is on my SSD and I guess my profile is on my 2TB dedicated HDD for my /Home.
