Interesting. Firefox android works great for me, but Firefox windows gets very slow on my machine. I don't use their password manager on either, though, so I can't attest to that.

This is why I don't use FF (although I'm on Linux). It's unusably slow for me. My experience is not the most common one (indicating that there's something about my ecosystem that FF hates), but I haven't been able to make FF work in any of the releases starting a couple of years back, I think.

I don't browse on my phone at all, so I won't be using FF there purely for that reason.

Is it still slow for you? Have you tested it recently?

Yes, it's still my default browser -- work and home. I put up with it because I browse far more on my phone than on my computer.
