I like idea to list what Firefox does better.
My addition to the list: Firefox has better kerning support while Chromium team ignores the problem (e.g. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=888374#c_ts1544002305 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=888374... and https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=912052 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=912052).
For the context: I'm software developer working in printing.
- chrismorgan 8y agoMy experience with reporting these sorts of things: in Edge, fixed in about a month; in Firefox, normally fairly quickly, but sometimes months and occasionally never; in Chromium, I don’t even know why I bother filing bugs sometimes. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=639223 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=639223 is a good example of my experience there: a fancy typography thing that is just completely broken in an uncommon but by no means unreasonable situation, and it just sits for years untouched. But Firefox is still definitely not perfect: as an example that has sat unfixed for ten years, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479829 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479829 is about hyphenation and ligatures not mixing well (you can get half your ff ligature on one line and half on the next). I tend to see the effects of that once or twice a year.
