Content you don't need such as ads or tracking scripts can significantly slow down page loading. Firefox's built-in content-blocking feature can make the pages load faster by preventing third-party trackers from loading. See Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox for desktop for details.

There are also Firefox add-ons that can block content you don't need, such as:

• The Disconnect add-on blocks invisible webpage parts that track you online.
• The uBlock Origin add-on blocks ads, trackers and other unneeded content while using less memory and CPU resources than other adblockers.
• The NoScript add-on allows you to selectively enable and disable all scripts running on websites.

Please reach out to the add-on developer directly, if you need help with a specific add-on.

Sometimes tracking down the source of these kinds of problems is difficult. We have a community of volunteers ready to help you figure it out. See Get community support.
