Come on firefox devs

Probably not many of those on the debian-user mailing list; and even
if there are, a post to an unrelated mailing list is not the way to
file bug reports with any project, let alone a major one like Firefox.


An issue applies, regarding this.

I had thought, at first, that the original poster should be directed to the Firefox mailing list (https://groups.io/g/firefox-support), rather than having the post dealt with on this list.

Then, I thought, each distribution of Linux, has its own package maintainers, for each package, and, so, variations could apply, between different implementations of Firefox.

So, that aspect exists, and, also, regarding that, independent mailing lists, such as the Firefox mailing list cited above, are usually run by users, for users, and, often, developers and maintainers, do not participate in such lists - the lists are usually, simply users of an application, helping other users of the application.

So, whilst, "on the face of it", raising problems regarding an application, such as Firefox, on an operating system list, such as this, may seem inappropriate, with such queries and posts, being more appropriately addressed to lists dedicated to each particular application, it might be that it is not necessarily, that simple.

Now, with having said that, in going to the Firefox list (going to the list, defaults to the Messages page, unless using the URL for the list home page), I saw a message that I had posted to that list in December,

https://groups.io/g/firefox-support/message/40

relating to Firefox and slowness of Firefox, following a thread on this list, in December, about slowness of Firefox.

So, the question now arises; Daniel (original poster in this thread) - have you viewed the messages in the thread on this list, from December, with the Subject "Firefox alternatives?" ?

One of the things that came out of that thread, that I had mentioned in a post to the Firefox users mailing list, is the Task Manager in Firefox, that you may be interested in investigating.

If you view the original message in that thread on this list, the problem description may relate to your problem.
