• Google Store's Chromecast is very slow in Firefox.

    From Ant@21:1/5 to All on Thu Mar 4 21:16:34 2021
    https://store.google.com/product/chromecast is very slow in my 64-bit
    Firefox v86 web browser in my over decade old, updated 64-bit W7 HPE SP1
    PC. https://store.google.com is fast though. Is anyone else noticing
    this too?

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering. :)

    Ah. Is there a way to disable that?

    It may be your internet speed or your PC. Extremely brisk, sharp, and undistorted for me with very modest setup (Dell XPS 8930 with 8 GB RAM
    and a NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1050 Ti video card. Win 10 (64) Home,
    connecting on a 5 gHz band wifi-extended signal with download speed of
    38 Mbps, Dell ST2320L monitor.) Using FF 86.0
