Hello, all. I've posted here about an issue I had regarding firefox logging me out. That's still a problem but it's nothing compared to what's going on with my computer which is honestly making me go insane. It's a MacOS Catalina 10.15.6 from 2015.
My computer is mostly just very, very slow and it gets much slower later on in the day. It either buffers a lot or an application quits. My computer doesn't have a lot of GB, it has 11.5GB at the moment, but even when I delete a lot of files and get 20+ GB, it doesn't help at all. Finder is also probably the slowest application, it's always buffering, always slow.
This morning I had to switch off my computer because not only were tabs and videos buffering constantly, every application suddenly went into I think it's the mission control mode? Without me clicking anything. It just suddenly went into that mode and I couldn't exit out of it or change it at all (which meant every screen was small and I couldn't do anything) so I had to turn off my computer.
Also, random files appearing on my computer (think I made a thread here about that too) which I understand isn't anything suspicious (json/jsonlz4?) but I never used to have them pop up on my finder, it just randomly started appearing on there.
Really don't know what's going on and it's giving me a massive headache. Is my computer outdated? Do I need to delete way more files?
