Enabling <code>layers.acceleration.force-enabled</code> in <code>about:config</code> may improve performance on your device.[https://mobile.twitter.com/ManjaroLinux/status/1286241964111867905] If it gives you a clear and reproducible performance improvement after thorough testing, let us know in the [[How_to_report_issues|issues]]. Then we can consider shipping it by default for your device. We did some very basic testing on the PinePhone and some things appeared to be faster but others slower, therefore we decided to not include it by default.
