I'm not looking forward to the moaning about how important #firefox security fixes are. A project that pushes "security fixes" continuously for 20 years is insecure on a conceptual level.

OMG I think I just discovered why #Firefox is so stupidly sluggish on Wayland
It's the VSync, it always was this stupid VSync! I just set "widget.wayland.vsync.enabled" to false inside about:config, restarted Firefox and it's now almost all butter-smooth like if it was running on X11 :feels_good:

I guess if anybody cares, next Tuesday, #Firefox 141 will be released. Among other things, a few good items:
1. On #Linux, Firefox uses less memory and no longer requires a forced restart after an update has been applied by a package manager.
2. Support for #Cookies Having Independent Partitioned State (CHIPS) is now re-enabled, allowing developers to opt a cookie into storage partitioning per top-level site.
