Makes me wonder whether or not certain FF addons are causing problems.
Might those who are having problems try going into FF w/safe mode on,
ie, instead of pressing enter on the desktop shortcut press
shift-enter & see if it makes any difference?
Having said that, I'm having some sort of difficulty which, when I
have a few FF windows open, the computer sometimes just restarts. I'm
not seeing anything in the logs that's helpful. I'm gonna have to look
further. Torques me off, cuz I've got lots of stuff going on right
now.

or two articles from sighted reviewers, saying that Firefox is back and its
redesign makes it competetive with Chrome again. So those who don't use it
now might want to try new versions over time to see if the accessibility
problems, which are causing slowness, are resolved. For sighted users,
according to what I've read, Firefox is very fast now.

One thing I can't stand with latest FF is that there is a lag when I type
words as I fill in a search box or fill up a form. Happens with both Jaws
and NVDA. Cheers!

Wow, Guys!
I am using a little netbook, an HP Stream, and I only have a 2 Ghz
processor, 2 gigs of ram, and I am using Chrome with the latest Windows 10,

Flies!
It takes a second to open, and 2 seconds to open a large page!
Maybe you should switch to Chrome.
With Firefox Quantum, It is as slow as a snail on a much more powerful
laptop I have!
Just letting you know!

One annoying issue I've always had with FF is some sites, such as
Pizzahut.com require setting Page Styles to None in order for all links to
be recognized by NVDA. There may be workarounds for this, just not aware of
them. I still prefer the Fox over Edge or Internet Exploder.
