Would love to use Firefox if it wasn't so slow

Hope more developers give special support to the gecko engine

lol Firefox + adblock beat Chrome any day.

Have you seen the recent benchmarks where Firefox surpassed Chrome? Sure, they may not reflect actual use cases, but it shows that there isn't much of a speed difference.

Firefox isn't slow, you just want an excuse.

Firefox really isn't slow.

Especially when its blocking all the ad bloat that chrome runs on... What in the fuck are these people smoking?
