Ublock origin has the option to block all media over a certain size and JavaScript. The browser will never request the files so it will be faster (as long as it isn't inline scripts)

Alternatively https://github.com/ayastreb/bandwidth-hero/

Yeah the problem is not the browser, it's that websites are so big. Firefox works perfectly fine on low bandwidth if you use ublock origin and block media and script loading.

I use this often for the same reason, many websites don't display properly or at all anymore but at least it's more usable.

Thanks, I used it with adnauseum and it made internet slightly more bearable.

But I reduced max loading element size to 10KiB

Does anyone know how to make it load later these elements

For example load first elements with 1kb later 10 kb next 100kb etc.
