I'm not super quick to think they're doing something malicious here. I've experienced this exact thing at two of my jobs this decade, one of which I currently work at. Firefox and especially Edge are often just slower for some DOM manipulation use cases and style recalculations.
Although Pendo has been identified as the primary cause for Edge slowness :P
- jonathanyc 8y agoNo, the tweet points out how this is specifically because Google uses a deprecated, older version of a standard that only Chrome supports. It’s absolutely not a question of Firefox or Edge being “just slower,” it is a question of using a feature that is literally only implemented in Chrome and that other browsers have agreed not to implement.
- squirrelicus 8y agoThanks for the correction. Clearly I should not have skimmed so lightly.
- detaro 8y agoAnd the current version of the standard also isn't implemented in Firefox yet, so using that would change nothing?
- dblohm7 8y agoIt is implemented behind a preferred ATM, IIRC
- andrewmcwatters 8y agoI think in any stride in life you can easily make decisions that aren't well thought out that are malicious without intent.
