Glad that’s working for you but for me Flatpak is noticeably slower at startup (last couple distros, like uhh Fedora, Cachy, OpenSUSE). This is not an indictment of Flatpak in general; it’s a nice project. But not all of us can ruin the distributed supercomputers you’re running in your laptop
I’m thinking he runs a script that opens the browser as a window minimised at startup. So any browser window he opens is just another window and Firefox doesn’t have to startup every time
What did he do to speed up the browser startup time?
I seem to recall a way to run the browser as a background service so it’s essentially always running. You just “File > New Window” when you start it.
It’s hazy though… been a while and it was when I was using SwayWM
Probably removed the Flatpak and installed native?
not really, native ones are still as bad and heavy as the containerized ones, especially web browsers
