I've been on Firefox Nightly for a while now and the difference to my FF56 vanilla install, it behaves much more like chrome and has become my daily driver.
It can and has fully replaced Chrome (after the KeepassHTTP Connector was ported) in all matters (development, daily usage, hackernews).
- agumonkey 9y agoI used nightly regularly, then stopped. With quantum I used it again. It has shown strong improvements, massive ones, I spent two weeks in nightly. But at point it has perf issues that I don't have with chrome. I'll stay on it for a while to see if it goes away.
- zaarn 9y agoI've found that nightly has some issues with video acceleration (my laptop doesn't like playing anything over 1080p resolution), FF release doesn't seem to have that.
- agumonkey 9y agoI wouldn't rant if it was for intensive usage. But even twitter or the main UI can slow down.
- bzbarsky 9y ago> But at point it has perf issues that I don't have with chrome. Would you be willing to either file a bug report (and cc "bzbarsky") or just describe steps to reproduce here?
- agumonkey 9y agoI'd be happy, but beside a context and a list of tabs I have no precise info to give. Would it still be useful ?
- bzbarsky 9y agoPossibly, yes. Even just some idea of which urls are involved and of which operations are being slow would be useful.
- agumonkey 9y agoOkay, then. Could you give me a few pointers on how to submit (a bugzilla ticket I suppose) ? Found out the troubleshooting and health report menus in the mean time.
- bzbarsky 9y agohttps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi if you're willing to create a bugzilla account. Though I guess we also have sign-in with a github account now...
