I hope the hype proves true because Firefox definitely has room for improvement. Have used it for years, since it was Firebird, primarily because I like many of its features, but have almost left it for Chrome several times dues to slow loading and excessive stalls, freezes and it rarely closes cleanly (all those program is not responding messages before closing).
Absolutely.
...have almost left it for Chrome several times dues to slow loading and excessive stalls,...
Well, I can say that I've never considered leaving Firefox--while it has been slow for me at times, I like the extensions too much to leave it. I get no popups, no ads, just content.
I refuse to use a Google product, for Google is evil.
So much so, that I generally use the command
pkill foxto shut down firefox on my laptop. But it does have some features that I really don't want to do without.
