Lag/stuttering on Google Maps?

moth@pawb.social to Firefox@lemmy.ml – 31 points –

Recently switched computers and realized that Google maps is running really slow now. Severe stuttering, longer loading times, etc. The site works normally on chromium based browsers (tested edge, chrome, Vivaldi). Anything I can do?

Old PC had Radeon graphics and new has Intel integrated and Nvidia, if that's relevant.
