This has got to be some bullshit shilling. I use all those sites all day every damn day with no problem in Firefox whatsoever.

Agree, those are my regulars and I solidly use Firefox for daily browsing and have never had those issues on those sites.

  nah i've had it too, granted it's on a 10 year old Xeon box I got for 40 bucks 4 years ago on an equipment auction at my work, but Asana and clickup are unusably slow, so when I last tried to switch for Firefox I'd just use them in a chrome instance ( where it was actually usable) ,the trouble was I would keep accidentally opening links etc in chrome and before I knew it I was using just the chrome browser.

It might really depend on hardware and OS... we would have to know a lot more about both of your setups to determine why you guys are getting such different experiences.

Is it possible this is a hardware-related issue?

No shilling. Verified slow as balls on imac 2017, macbook air, macbook pro 2017 and macbook pro latest. Using ff developer edition.

  I have an iMac 2015 and a MacBook (the one with the slow dual core ultrabook CPU). I use the normal edition of Firefox most of the time. I've never seen Clickup or JIRA run faster in any other browser.

    Jira was the fastest for me in Chrome. Firefox was slower, Safari was slowest.

  It may be related with your screen resolution, I agree that Firefox has serious performance issues on Macs due this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404042 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404042 [Poor battery life on OSX with scaled resolution]
