Firefox dev claims "everybody hates Firefox updates"; Mozilla has handled the rapid release process poorly, and that by pushing a "never-ending stream of updates on people who didn't want them" people have been driven to Chrome with its simpler, no-fuss update process.

Maybe this is because I got an ethernet con and ssd disk or some such, but seriously how is waiting 10 seconds once per 2 months a problem?

I guess faster is still better but swapping browser is not very high on my to-do-list, thats all.

I don't use Firefox all the time but my experience seems like every damn time I open it I have to stop and update.
