Firefox was once the "I'm ahead of you" browser of choice for people who need to be propped up by their choices (of software or hardware). Eventually it got popular enough that some subsection of those people had to move on, generally to Chrome. Eventually the same nonsense will happen with Chrome (the loudmouths deriding it publicly for being yesterday's news).
So, essentially, browser hipsters.
- burgerbrain 15y agoCool theory, except my bicycle has a respectable number of gears and I think Lady Gaga is pretty good. Face it, people bitch about Firefox because they legitimately had bad user eperiances. Your attitude doesn't suprize me though, it seems to be one held by Mozilla devs too.
- pcwalton 15y agoI am a Mozilla dev. I certainly don't hold the attitude that there's something wrong with you if you don't like Firefox. Rather, I'm interested to hear about your bad user experience so that we can improve.
- burgerbrain 15y agoI don't have anything to say that hasn't been said thousands of times already. There should be no mystery to what is bugging so many people.
