Google Chrome working increasingly slowly.

I prefer Google Chrome as my browser, and the school district I work for wants it to be used to access our LMS, as well as it being used for Google Classroom. Over the past several months Chrome has gotten slower and slower, to the point where I had to discontinue using it entirely. It was slow in regards to loading web pages, but it was also slow when I tried to scroll down on a web page or type a URL. I uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome several times, ran scans in order to look for malware or viruses, and have made sure all updates were up-to-date.


I am currently using Safari, but I do not particularly like Safari, nor does it work as well for my work-related things as Chrome does. Any suggestions?


I use a MacBook Pro from 2012, with 8 GB memory.

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

Chrome is a third party app—


I would try their support page and see what they have to say.
