Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help. Is this normal?įinal question - does this community have a recommended list of browsers or something? I need a secondary browser to run Google and FaceBook websites in. I recommend anyone with an m1 mac to switch to it until Opera releases a native M1 version. Could that have something to do with it?Īlso, every browser other than Safari that I've tried has 2 entries under Notifications and Focus preferences, each with different settings. ive switched to brave (for the time being) and absolutely love it. Is this normal or is there some sort of problem with my machine? I should mention that I reinstalled macOS just today.

Brave doesn’t track your browsing or search data. Brave is independent of Big Tech companies, and makes it easy to get started: With one click, you can import extensions, bookmarks, even saved passwords from your old browser. There's a noticeable lag with things like opening a new tab and showing the Menu Bar while on full screen. Crypto-powered browser Brave has rolled out a new version of its desktop browser, adding native support for Apples new M1 Mac processor. Brave is the best browser on the market for combining privacy, security, and speed. Also, Brave and Chrome just seem laggy in general. I shrugged it off since Chrome is a known resource hog in this community and others-however, the other browsers took several seconds to launch and threw me off. It even crashed WIndowServer 3 times in a row. With 57 billion transistors 70 percent more than M1 Pro and 3.5x more than M1 M1 Max is the largest chip Apple has ever built. Chrome especially hangs a lot (hang = rainbow of death). M1 Max features the same powerful 10-core CPU as M1 Pro and adds a massive 32-core GPU for up to 4x faster graphics performance than M1. I'm not sure if this is normal, but every browser other than Safari is slow on my M1 MacBook Air running Monterey.
