THANK YOU I knew it wasnt just me. Been having issues with firefox for months now. Basically it freezes and dies like 5x a day, sometimes its so bad, I have to shut down my laptop and reboot because it freezes my entire laptop. I thought I am just retarded as fuck but then I went on reddit and saw others having the same problem. I have two tabs open and firefox uses like 7GB of RAM, and I only have 8GB of ram total. There are other issues too. Few years ago firefox updated and completely wiped all my user data, browsing history, booksmarks - everything was gone.
At first I thought it's a memory leak from some plug-in I have installed etc - no it is not. Others have the same issue, it also happens with plug-ins disabled. Idk if I am just tech illiterate as fuck, but I am using my laptop for exactly the same tasks as I did in like 2008. My laptop model is from 2011. Back then I had a fucking IBM R40 thinkpad and I used that to watch youtube and read shit online. That Laptop is from 2004 and has 256MB RAM and yet it worked somehow. My next Laptop was a ThinkPad W500 with 4GB of RAM. Mind you, I was primarily using Windows XP until like 2020 as well. And yet this shit worked. Now I have 8GB of RAM, an i5 processor and I am using a ThinkPad X220 - my stats have never been better, yet this shit is slow as fuck and I think Firefox is to blame. I am going to try Brave for comparison for few days and see what happens.
Many others have also noted firefox quality declining but for other reasons. They are moving more in direction of a commercial product and not what they used to be. Another issue specifically for firefox on ubuntu is this: When you install ubuntu it comes with firefox installed from this software repository on linux called snap, as a snap package. On linux you can install software in a variety of ways, there is flatpak, snap, or you just install packages yourself, many ways.
However, for some absolutely retarded reason current Ubuntu version comes with literal cancer Firefox install that can not be uninstalled. Yes, you can remove it if you have a little bit of linux knowledge, but for normie user, it is complete cancer. Everytime you uninstall it, it just automatically comes back later. It has something to do with Ubuntu forcing snap store usage, it is atrocious and you can find many complaints about it in linux community:
