While this is abhorrent, I have to say in general Firefox is just painfully slow on mobile compared to other browsers. Don't know what it's doing but I stopped using it because it's noticeably slow.

90% of the time I go to search something in Firefox it just straight up refuses to load anything and I have to close the tab and start another...

Eh? I use it on my phone all the time, and it works just fine.

Pixel 6 here, no issues.

Pixel 2 XL, also no issues or even any noticeable deltas between Chromium based browsers and Firefox.

I'm using Fold 5 and can tell a difference in scrolling performance between Samsung Internet and Firefox. There are also some issues regarding how the UI handles transition between folded to unfolded and vice versa.

This is a known issue
