It's a fair complaint when this doesn't happen on other browsers.

Your website doesn't have to have "shitty poor design" for it to lag FF. Compare scrubbing in this React player in Chrome and Firefox: https://hsreplay.net/replay/WpWzqzkCHTGdEmbguHUoiC

It comes down to issues in the Firefox JS/DOM engines.

In my experience, Twitter and ESPN can bring any browser to its knees
