I recently switched from Windows to Linux (Pop!_OS). Although I'm very pleased with Pop!_OS there are a few problems that I couldn't fix yet:

Google Maps/Earth is very slow on Firefox. On Maps you don't even get 3D-View and zooming is not smooth.

Browser-Games like slitherdotio and Happy Wheels lag and have graphical artifacts.

(This "Play"-Button e.g. has this weird corrupted-looking background)

I hope you can help me out.

Thank you in advance!

    It might be an issue with acceleration. If the kernel driver cannot properly handle your hardware, then you might be missing hardware acceleration. You can [verify if hardware acceleration is enabled](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/963/how-to-verify-if-hardware-acceleration-is-enabled#964). Another option, to keep things slow but get rid of artifacts is to [disable acceleration in Firefox](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1106854). Note that it is not Firefox's fault, the issue is at the kernel level and you will need the appropriate driver/options. – Eduardo Trápani Jul 24 '21 at 15:04
  • Chromium works flawlessly so I think the problem is Firefox. –  Jul 24 '21 at 17:16
  • Chromium has an integrated black list of buggy graphic drivers. When it finds one of those, it works around it. The problem is still the buggy driver, not Firefox. Other applications might have issues with it. You might want to tell us a bit more about your graphics hardware. The output from `lspci` is a good starting point. – Eduardo Trápani Jul 24 '21 at 17:21

  • sorry the whole text was too long for one comment. –  Jul 25 '21 at 14:21
  • Questions go like this: you ask something, and people may ask you to provide more information. The additional information should not go into the comments, but be readily available in the question. So, usually you edit your question, add the output (formatted) and everybody (now and in the future, for people with related problems) can get all information at once. – Eduardo Trápani Jul 25 '21 at 15:37
