The Best Web Browsers of 2024 | HighSpeedInternet.com

Mozilla’s Firefox browser isn’t known for speed. It falls into last place in most of our tests for Windows and Mac, and that’s okay. Firefox is more about security features than speed, which is ideal if you’re more concerned about blocking malware than loading pages in a flash.

Yep, I'd probably be wasting my time going down the uninstall-reinstall rabbit hole and would probably not find speed increases.
