I left because they went on a version roller coaster which was confusing, that broke plugins like oh Quake which was fun but important plugins in addition to that.
Oh, and JavaScript was faster in Chrome, FF did improve JS speed though.
- drivebyacct2 14y agoDo you mean extensions or plugins? Either way, both of those are resolved in new version of Firefox. Yes, it was annoying and it was partially why I stopped using it in the first place. However, those are no longer true and FF is very competitive on speed now (well, I'm still waiting for Linux to shake off all the cruft from the 2 years that they simply ignored us), but it's quite fast in my Windows VM and Mac. edit: I'm now the third person in this thread to tell you that the Firefox upgrade experience has become quite seamless. I promise you, I don't work for Mozilla and I'm betting the other folks don't either. I use Chrome 99% of the time, I have no reason to lie about Firefox being good. edit2: What plugins do people legitimately use today? Ok, I whitelist Flash, but other than that? Ooops, turns out I also have NaCl and Chrome's PDF viewer allowed.
