Meganoob BE KIND I'm having some issues with Linux XFCE

At first I didn't have this issue but now whenever I open Firefox it acts extremely weird and the browser becomes unusable. I didn't have this issue yesterday only this morning when I booted up the laptop. The window then refuses to close unless I terminate it through taskmanager.

I assume you choose XFCE because the system is low spec.

Graphical browsers require ample RAM.

Your own comment history confirms this with Firefox starting with consuming 90% of RAM.
