Personally it's not that it's slow, it just holds on to weird patterns for way too long, kinda like how new outlook just feels like old outlook with a new skin. Whenever I open edge, it loads. Whenever I open firefox, it's the "Firefox is installing updates" window that's probably been there since the 90s. Refusing to honor the 'close multiple tabs' etc. It's minor stuff but when there's an objectively better way to do things, it's just annoying.
Well this is sort of a non issue, I can say I feel the same way when I have to open Chrome. Weird ui, doesn't do what I want it to do, no middle click to open new tab, it's so annoying because the firefox way is objectively better. So I'm saying the only objective thing about UI is giving people choice
I don't think I've seen either of those in a decade? Maybe it's because Firefox is my daily driver so it isn't trying to install months worth of updates at a time.
