If only Firefox wasn’t so slow and such a terrible developer experience. Oh, and my bosses don’t give a fuck about Firefox so I’d have to retest in Chrome/Safari anyways.
Lastly Mozilla sucks. Like wtf are they doing over there? They put all their effort into shitty product they kill faster than Google does. Then they turn around and half-ass their browser while taking money from Google to make it the default search. Mozilla sucks and Firefox leaves a lot to be desired.
Firefox is no less slower than chrome to me, imho. At least it doesn’t struggle as much. Chrome with 20 tabs lags while firefox works. Maybe there’s something in your extensions that’s causing slowdowns?
Yeah, I’m not the biggest fan of Mitchell Baker spinning out Rust and Servo and the decisions she’s made about Firefox funding. She oversaw a decline of browser share from 30% to 3% and still gave herself a raise. That said, with its containers extension and other extensions, it’s still easily the most privacy focused browser I’ve seen. I like Vivaldi as a Blink/Chromium back up. Only now do I think Safari’s kind of mimicking the containers sandboxing extension by creating profiles.
I don’t do web development (yet), but have you tried Firefox Developer Edition ( I first downloaded it to try out the Rust Quantum speed up before it was available in mainline Firefox)? Is it any different than standard Firefox and if so is it any good?
