i'm downloading it right now. the extensions i use (ublock, dashlane, tampermonkey, etc.) are all on firefox so i don't have stuff to worry about.
hyped because i'm so tired of having lots of tabs open or media pages open and having chrome flip the forget out

does it still nuke my computer if i have firefox open period

[Tudoreleu]

i'm already using it B)

[Bisjac]

tbh, i WANT my computer to do lots of ram on things i have open. i mean how little memory do you guys have where its an issue?

16gb is wasted when my browser refuses to use more than 4g... thats the purpose of multi tasking and having hardware.



more ram does not make a computer faster. but not enough ram will make it slower. the old joke of browsers using tons of memory is just an issue for stuffty comps that still have 4g or less in them.

does it still nuke my computer if i have firefox open period

no. i don't even remember that being an issue

forget ye
chrome has been killing me and I miss firefox
also chrome sucks when you download addons, it adds more tasks to the single chrome browser app.

sounds like a browser for little Bitches who aint got money for some dope ass hardware... i'll pass on that stuff *revs up my motorcycle, burning 500 gallons of gasoline, then speeds off to Zaxby's for some chicken tenders*

[The Murderous Cop]

it's real good !

ngl zaxby's sounds nice rn

[Darth C3P0²]

just got on it
this is awesome

although the scroll speed isn't the fastest, I fixed this by opening a new tab, typing about:config, and set mousewheel.acceleration.start to 1 instead of -1

Would switch of I havent had history/bookmarks/addons and whatever synced between all my devices

Also chrome doesnt crash when 1 tab of my usual 20 forgets up and closes everything

[Køtt]

thank God Themself that they fixed the supported MIME thing i keep crossing by when i go to my social media sites

[Nonnel]

I'd never heard of Zaxby's but a chicken tender restaurant sounds great
also I like the idea that their new motto is "it's Faster."

[Swollow]

pry chrome from my cold dead hands

[Mr Queeba]

im switching back to firefox

[cooolguy32]

yeah forget it, I am switching to firefox because chrome has been a loving pain in the ass.
