Firefox Android is rather bad at being a mobile browser (it's too slow), and if it is any indicator Firefox iOS will likely be the same.

- wpietri 4y agoIs it? It's the only mobile browser I use. I use it on a mid-tier phone (Pixel 5a). It seems fine to me.
- dartharva 4y agoHave you tried comparing it with Bromite, Brave or even Chrome? There is a very noticeable difference. Also, I think Site Isolation* doesn't work in FF Android as it does in FF Desktop. Firefox Android is categorically less secure than its Chromium counterparts. * https://hacks.mozilla.org/2021/05/introducing-firefox-new-site-isolation-security-architecture/ https://hacks.mozilla.org/2021/05/introducing-firefox-new-si...
- wpietri 4y agoI have not done much comparison, as it works fine for me. I could believe that it is slower, but I still wouldn't call in slow. Perhaps my using an adblocker with FF makes it better for me.
- CharlieDigital 4y agoI've only noticed this in very compute intensive SPAs. But you know what? Having AdBlock makes up for it 10 fold because I never have to see ads on mobile FF.
