Firefox (and Chromium according to their own blog) might be objectively faster (and hardware is certainly much faster), but getting anything done on websites doesn't feel any faster than 20 years ago. In the end we keep bumping into some form of Wirth's law / Jevons Paradox: both browser and hardware speed gains will be eaten by more abstract web frameworks, more authentication walls, more ads, etc.
