So, this sucks. On Mint, Firefox was running super sluggish to the point of being unusable. I reinstalled Ubuntucinnamon because I enjoyed using it when I had it installed, but between me last having it installed and now there seems to have been an update that has broken cinnamon's system tray. Which, for me, is a major functionality.

I really don't want to twiddle my thumbs waiting and trying to figure out why shit isn't working right, but I really do like the cinnamon de. ugh

ideas?

I haven't noticed anything different.

$ apt-cache policy firefox

It wasn't the only application being slow, but it was the one that stuck out the most for obvious reasons. I just installed Mint, updated everything and everything had a few second delay when it concerned the internet. I did some digging around and the problem was so broad that it would've taken too long to pinpoint so I went back to ubuntu.

Smells like a DNS issue.
