Are you actually seeing degraded performance, or do you just have an aesthetic dislike of swapping?

I’m seeing literal freezes (can’t do anything, even mouse pointer is frozen). But if I kill the browser everything becomes snappy again.

I'd suggest again to try NoScript/Adblocking, disable hardware accel if you have it enabled, enable it if disabled.

If even there you have no success, I'd suggest you try something like EndeavorOS. Browsers have issues but that is not normal. You're not using Debian stable on the desktop, right?
