Firefiox: I remember the first few versions since the rewrite. It was very fast. Fast forward to today and it's so slow.

What is the reason? Are the privacy changes affecting this by using more resources or pages are requesting domains that hang for too long?

It gives rust a bad name because this is one of the bigger rust products I know.

Hardly any of firefox is using rust. Servo was abandoned. I think the only rust part of FF right now is the CSS engine.

That's not correct.

Currently, 9.5% is Rust https://4e6.github.io/firefox-lang-stats/

Servo was abandoned after all of the fanfaire? Was a reason ever given? I thought we were in the servo era.

Mozilla cut a bunch of jobs and the servo team was one of the teams cut. The servo project is not officially canceled but there is no clear future for it.
