Since it seems #Google has decided to uni-laterally force through their new anti-#adblock #DRM euphemistically named "Web environment integrity", I decided to add a little bit of code to my website that blanks out the page and displays a protest message with a link to the firefox download page when you visit it from a browser...

May and June were good months for Firefox's Speedometer performance compared to Chrome. We're closing in while Chrome seems fairly static. In this visualization, lower in the graph is better. From https://arewefastyet.com/win10/benchmarks/overview?numDays=60.
A graph showing the Speedometer benchmark comparing Firefox, Chromium and Chrome. In the graph, lower is better. The top of the graph shows Chromium at around the 120 mark, with a slight change for the worse towards the end of June. The middle of the graph shows Firefox, rapidly closing in on Chrome, moving from ~150 to ~165. The bottom fo the graph shows Chrome fairly steady between ~165 and ~170.
If you want to find the bug, you can run a mozregression to find what broke it (using 114 as your last known good release and 115 as your bad release).
Please reach out if you need help with this.
You can use your profile to test this pretty easily.
