And I remember back then when firefox was not even 1.0, and was replacing the horrible browsing experience on Linux on Konqueror, with a delightful one (with tabs!).
I am glad to see how far we've come.
- MikeCapone 15y agoI actually liked Konqueror, but it might have been a later version than what you had.
- guard-of-terra 15y agoKonqueror did a lot of things right which still aren't by any other browser. E.g. it had okayish system integration while other browsers have it awful. It displayed site favicons in task panel, instead of boasting its own. It was a birthplace of webkit.

- DanielRibeiro 15y agoProbably. At the time, the university machines had 256 Ram (it was before Gmail), and konqueror managed to hog a lot of its memory. Firefox would ocupy 30 MB Ram with 5 tabs, so it made things a lot smoother.
