I have no idea either. Sure, chrome is a little faster but its a minor difference in my opinion. Been using it for a long time and have no idea why it's so unpopular.

Also, keep in mind, google has been caught slowing Firefox down in YouTube before. So if you notice any slowness in their services, it's fair to suspect it might not be Firefox's fault.

No way it stays that way after blocking ad-blocking. Some websites genuinely take over 30s without ad block.
