FireFox 4.0 beta[views:2023][posts:25]______________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 10:43am - the_reverend ""] just replaced my v3.6 with v4.0b12 liking it better so far. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 10:46am - the_reverend ""] the refresh button is at the end of the address bar which is a little annoying. Looks like they are making it look more android like. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 10:52am - arktouros ""] i think it's the best browser yet but i still don't like the seperate download window, and i don't want to download a plugin to fix it. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 10:59am - the_reverend ""] I use FF for all my browsing except for gmail/gvoice. I have that loaded in chrome with the "offline" option. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 11:08am - the_reverend ""] moving the refresh button is getting really old. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 11:22am - porphyria ""] firefox crashed way too much, made the switch to chrome. enjoying that each tab is still a separate process so if something does crash it doesn't crash the entire application. |

| ______________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 11:27am - the_reverend ""] mouse button |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 11:28am - eyehatehippies ""] I always had stability problems with the old versions of Firefox, I just restarted it every few hours and that seemed to take care of it. Once it started running sluggishly in the slightest, I could tell it was only a matter of time before The Big Crash would take out all of my lovely porn windows. Gonna try out this 4.0 beta later, I saw it last night, but didn't feel like fucking with it. |
| ______________________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 11:44am - BobNOMAAMRooney nli ""] I use firefox almost exclusively for downloading multi-part porn archives off restrictive filehosts. With plug ins it's far better at that than chrome. Although I am a fan of Chrome's seperate process tabs. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 12:55pm - arktouros ""] the chrome browser runs on it's own virtual machine (it's based on the google OS) which is good and bad, it does use a lot more memory than other browsers in practice. and rev, only F5 is real. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 1:30pm - MillenialKingdom ""] I just downloaded Firefox 4 as well. It's definitely different and from reading the update page, this isn't even the final version of the program so they will be continuing to update this frequently. The only thing I don't like so far is the tabs being on top of the entire browser. |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 9,2011 1:43pm - the_reverend ""] I want multiple rows or tabs. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 10,2011 2:37pm - the_reverend ""] eep! don't click tab groups. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Mar 11,2011 8:45am - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I just started using Chrome for all my facebookin'. A fuck of a lot faster especially with that new garbage picture viewer they have. Also, all the same hotkeys as Firefox. Win. Still use Firefox as my main browser, though. I use IE8 for any online banking or bill paying where I don't want to find out the hard way that nobody made sure their site works with anything other than IE. And of course I only view rttp in Lynx. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 11,2011 9:11am - the_reverend ""] FF4 messes up a lot of rttp pages. |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 24,2011 12:13pm - the_reverend ""] http://www.flickr.com/photos/20404647@N07/5551026601/ released for reals. |

| _________________________________ [Mar 24,2011 2:11pm - sxealex ""] im not sure what i think about this so far the lack of bottom bar is fucking me up |
| _____________________________________________________ [Mar 25,2011 11:35am - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Yeah it does that popup. I always look at the status bar when browsing. The popup is a little distracting. I'm seeing if I can get used to it. |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 25,2011 11:38am - the_reverend ""] yeah that pop up thing is exactly what chrome does. I have a feeling they want to merge chrome and ff. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 13,2011 12:06pm - arilliusbm ""] using this now. not too bad. it's going to take some getting used to. |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 13,2011 12:12pm - the_reverend ""] I need to fix the search box in it. |
| ________________________________ [Apr 13,2011 12:13pm - sigh ""] Stopped using FF in favor of chrome when it started taking more than 30 seconds to open the browser on a quad core machine with 4 GB of ram. Is the new version less bloated? I don't think chrome and FF will be merging anytime soon. They use different rendering engines. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 13,2011 12:18pm - arktouros ""] chrome is still faster from a cold start. i've always had issues using chrome with flash, so i've been sticking to FF4 lately. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 13,2011 2:02pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""] Since I'm STILL rebuilding my fucking virus raped computer, I'm starting this on a fresh install. Haven't tried it yet, but I have it on my usb drive ready to go. |
