This article reads like a one star review of a recipe because someone swapped out all the core ingredients and got mad it didn't taste good.

Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

This sounds like a piece written by someone hurt in the place that is highest, when plucking strawberries.
What a whining "opinion", and opening up for others to whine too...
You know what? Not a single one, can find a browser that does everything you want, the way you want it done, and only that. _Now, grow up, and then start influencing the best browser, who has fought for decades for users rights and privacy. The reason they have to compromise a bit, is because users just don't care - in general.

Ok, I've reread this like a hundred times, but I don't get it. What does this mean LMAO
Firefox has been fine for me, tons of tabs yet doesn't use much memory. It isn't slow, seems the same as any other browser.
The list of places mentioned in the article I would never go to anyways so I can't compare.
Funny how the list is the shittiest places on the internet, makes you wonder what those sites are actually doing to seem to slow a browser....
As an alternative, I've been using Waterfox.
FF's performance on Meta sites in general is terrible. Slow loading at best, other times they don't load at all. On my Macs, the FirefoxCP RDD process periodically gets into a state where FF stops responding to mouse clicks and has to be force quit. There's an about:config setting to deal with that but it doesn't work for me. Frankly, I don't think cramming in some AI crap is going to fix any of this.
I’m not a fan of current Mozilla leadership, but the symptoms you’re seeing just sound like shitty Meta programming.
