Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

      (I disabled all addons except uBlock, and the UI still froze. 🤷 🤦 😭 )

          I am regularly closing and opening the browser 😅. I also am sure hardware acceleration was disabled, it was immediately obvious when sites with animated transitions slowed to a crawl.

          I might try creating a fresh profile, that should hopefully avoid the risk of previously saved settings being reloaded even after a reinstall.

          Waterfox is a good idea too haha. I should try it for a while and see if it has the same issue.

      Cheers, I have disabled the hardware acceleration, and now I’ll see if that fixes it!

      Hardware acceleration is off, I’ve cleared all browser data, running the latest version, system is up to date so should have latest drivers, deleted the favicon/places databases.

      The only suggestion left on that link is an add on. I’ve now disabled everything exect uBlock and bitwarden, let’s see if that helps. Not holding my breath though!
