Tried to use on mobile firefox, but seems to be doing something very CPU intensive, doesn't respond for ~10s then the tab crashes

Even kills the app for me. Unresponsive afterwards, even after leaving the page.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
:) That's not necessary, but it would be interesting to know what trips Firefox up like that.
Hi, I am part of the Mozilla community. Mozilla devs read through comments and saw an issue with Firefox. They filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1939643 to identify why it doesnt work only in Firefox. Turns out other browsers do not follow the spec, and the underlying libraries that the page uses used workarounds to make it work in Chrome, but that broke Firefox. We filed https://github.com/tsparticles/tsparticles/issues/5443 (to fix the workaround in the library), https://issues.chromium.org/issues/387030982 (Chrome bug to get it fixed there) and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1939701 (which creates a common webtest for all the browser vendors so that this functionality is tested in future and doesnt break).

All of this during the Holiday Season too!

Amazing, thanks!
Indeed, very nice!
Thank you for your feedback, I will fix this issue as soon as possible.
