wolfie Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 I was having a lot of "This page is slowing down Firefox" problems viewing nsane (in particular) and it turned out that the third-party "Privacy Settings" add-on was the culprit... rrd84 and new1born 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
