    I just tried Firefox: Startup took around 40 seconds, UI was not responsive at all, and I couldn’t install locally developed extensions.

      40 seconds? I’ve never experienced that with Firefox at all. You’re either being hyperbolic or have an ancient computer. I have a Samsung Windows 10 machine from 2015 that opens Firefox just as quickly as it opens Chrome.

      40 seconds to boot? I’ve never experienced this even on my 20 years old potatoe. I find that very hard to believe.

        But I wonder, why. No other application behaves like this. Even heavyweights like Kdenlive start up within 2-3 seconds.

        Unfortunately Firefox does not print anything out on command line so I have no way to debug this.
