Firefox is unbelievably slow when I'm watching youtube videos (lemmy.ml)

I have about 25 extensions (almost all needed) and firefox lags like crazy, it's like I'm watching the videos at 10 fps. I download chrome to test it out and sure enough it runs as smooth as butter. Any help?

EDIT: It somehow fixed itself after I started using LibreWolf (with the same addons)

@Yoru Try clicking the gear in the menu bar, and turning off Ambient Mode. That lagged the crap out of my machine, but on a Intel iGPU.

The dark themes in Enhancer for Youtube also disable ambient mode.
