I'm confused. What is a "real extension"? Given the rich extension library for chrome I'm not sure of the difference.
Rather than remind the poor souls, it may be time to acknowledge and accept the fact that "real extensions" aren't an actual benefit of Firefox over Chrome? If it is a reference to IE. I think the only reason IE has market share now is the fact that it is the default on Windows.
- eitland 10y agoFor me, and I guess many hardcore FF users, the extensions on Chrome is a dealbreaker. I honestly tried and it was beyond my patience. A number of the best extensions just doesn't exist on Chrome, most notably all good tab-tree extensions. I guess this makes me a spoiled brat, but hey it is free so anyone can be a spoiled brat.
