(If you are one of these Maoist Che Chavismo “we must destroy capitalism” types, probably the best thing you can do is figure out how to simplify software, so that anyone besides Google is capable of making software 20 years from now.)
(When I tried Firefox some months ago, it couldn’t even scroll a web page without lagging very hard, so I am not sure why anyone thinks this is going to be a solution).
That must have been a lot of months ago. It's been a stable and performant desktop browser for me ever since they shipped Quantum.
For you.
Same can be said about your experience with Firefox. And I'd argue, Your experience is in the tiny minority.
I am not making it up ... hundreds of people saw the livestream. All I did was install Firefox on a new laptop and visit some web pages. P.S. One reason why open source doesn’t succeed at user-facing stuff is this non-product “your problem is not really a problem” mentality.
I will certainly agree that it *should not* be as complicated as it is to draw stuff on the screen, but given the current playing field, problems are being had.
Strange hearing all these problems people are having. I've been using Firefox exclusively for a couple of years, both on Linux and Windows, and have had no major problems. It's pretty snappy and feels nicer than Chrome did. Do you have any special use case which might explain it?
People like to take isolated incidents and then they spread them as the default state, and that will stop most people from trying for it themselves. Not really healthy for an already Google-dominated browser market.
No scroll lag here. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yup, Firefox is good.
Firefox runs smoothly for me (using uBlock Origin and NoScript addons) and as it's run by a nonprofit foundation it's the only browser I recommend.
Biggest Mozilla donor: Google.
if you could finally finish the compiler, you could work on a new browser! 
I feel like browser are hit or miss some of the time. I use chrome at work because firefox randomly leaks memory on certain sites, but firefox at home because chrome takes ages to fullscreen and is laggier overall. Seems pretty random.
I don't think any perceived technological gap between chrome and firefox is large enough to work as some kind of generalized argument for privatized software vs socialized.
As I recall the vsync calculation for Firefox has been horrible for a number of years, and they never bothered to change it. It's especially bad for > 60Hz displays
Ooh! Is the info on http://vsynctester.com (which I just encountered when trying to learn my monitor’s refresh rate, about 60Hz as it happens) a good explanation of the problem you are referring to?
Yeah, that looks like a good test. Chrome is not perfect (and there's a big notification at the top of the site saying it has issues), but Firefox is a joke by comparison, if that graph correlates to frame time it's like they're just flipping between 2 incorrect Hz values.pic.twitter.com/ljq2wGIRSX
Firefox might not be the fastest browser in the world, but extensions like Tree Style Tabs has been an amazing productivity booster for me for 10 years. I don't use Chrome professionally because it lacks such a feature.
