Chrome is still king when it comes to fast JS execution and modern technologies. I'm talking about real world use, I know some benchmarks put FF and Edge ahead.

Chrome is still king when it comes to fast JS execution and modern technologies. I'm talking about real world use, I know some benchmarks put FF and Edge ahead.

- dblohm7 8y agoWhat exactly do you mean by "modern technologies?" Usually people who say that are complaining that Gecko is missing some bleeding-edge DOM API that was pushed out by Blink. If you think that Firefox/Gecko doesn't have any modern tech, then you're not looking closely enough.
