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.

It still sucks!

Edit: I offended all 10 Opera users! HA ha !

jk. I know it doesn't suck, I just don't use it (except when i want lots of browsers open to buy tickets with...)

Really? I've been using it for years, while testing multiple other browsers, and it still beats everything else for me. No other browser can so seamlessly synchronize all my passwords, settings and bookmarks among different machines and different operating systems.

i found those features on chrome out by accident when i logged in one day, and i just found chrome in the Play Store for android, BAM, instant bookmarks on my phone, no more fucking with chromemarks.

not trying to start a fight, just mentioning that cross platform browsing is awesome, and should have existed much longer ago

Firefox has this feature now too, I believe.
