Thought I’d never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.

There’s also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/

    Is this for both desktop and mobile versions? Sorry if that is a silly question.

      Probably desktop. Or desktop and android. Remember that iOS locked down the browser years ago and require any third parties to run on safari’s bones.

        Chrome and Firefox are building iOS browsers that do not require the apple WebKit. Everyone, including apple, expect apple to drop that requirement soon to help avoid antitrust issues.

          I’m surprised it took this long.

          That’s quite good to hear, do you have any further reading that you know of?

          Edit: here’s the top article from DDG - https://www.theregister.com/2023/02/07/mozilla_google_apple_webkit/

        Definitely not Android. Firefox is unfortunately quite a bit slower than Chrome based browsers. I still use it as I don’t really do much on my phone, but I hope they can optimize it further.

      This is specifically for the Windows version. You can also find Linux and Mac results here by selecting the OS from the drop-down list at the top.

        I only see Chromium and Chrome on the speedometer for Linux, not Firefox. Am I missing something?
