minus-squareLimcon@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·15 days agoCan you test a newer version of firefox? I have 128 ESR on my work laptop and it’s slow there too, it might be this.
minus-squareKickassWomen@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·15 days agoThis is apparently the latest version of Firefox ESR that’s available in Debian’s repository. I used these commands to update Debian: sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove Here’s the output: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree...
