That's wack. I've never seen Firefox that take long to open. Here's a video of it opening in a VM running Ubuntu 22.04: https://streamable.com/aqkftv

I know, mine starts like that on second start. First one always takes a while. After upgrade to SSH and M.2 it is faster but still not immediate like yours. And it's not even a slow and outdated machine.

Sure it's not a total beast, but still 12 cores and 32GB of RAM with decently fast SSD.
