I think Firefox has had its day. Now it suffers from everything they attacked IE for - lacking standards support, security issues, poor performance and slow development. The only reason it's still used is for its extension support. Personally I'm liking Chrome. It looks better, performs a shit-tonne faster and has better standards support. It's lacking in privacy (can't disable browser history) and extension support (though you can block ads and add mouse gestures) but they're being worked on.
I look forward to decent extension support for Chrome (and maybe Opera - it's strange they're taking so long) as then the browser wars may really kick off. |

| I love firefox but to be honest Im really not finding 3.5 to feel as snappy and fast as I expected. Chrome is still much snappier and faster then FF 3.5. Sorry its just the truth. |

The only thing Chrome lacks is a stable Linux version
And hundreds of useful extensions. 3.5 is actually pretty damned fast btw, big improvement over the previous 3.x revisions. The javascript engine especially is really improved, gmail loads in a snap now. |

| Firefox 3 is such a pig, it makes me want to slash its throat and roast it with an apple in its mouth. Google Chrome is faster and more secure. The only thing Chrome lacks is a stable Linux version, but I only care about that when I'm on the road with my netbook (like right now). Even if 3.5 is faster I'm sticking with Chrome on my main machine. |

Wait 3.5 was just released officially today? I've been using it for weeks already. What the hell is the difference? I don't think mine is a release candidate
No, what you're using is the Pre-Release candidate. Probably worth it to upgrade.
Edit : Well, seems like the PRC and the actual 3.5 are the same, judging by version numbers.

Thanks The PC Warrior, that was the extension causing most of my problems.

Wait 3.5 was just released officially today? I've been using it for weeks already. What the hell is the difference? I don't think mine is a release candidate. The about window says
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090616 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Maybe this official version is newer.. I dunno. I also have 3.6a1pre installed, and it's a LOT faster at loading pages. It's not even called Firefox. It's called Minefield. Been using that for a few weeks as well. Not sure which I like better as neither one lets all my extensions work quite yet.  |

| I'd been browsing a lot with the Opera 10 Beta (or is it RC?) lately and had been thinking about giving Firefox up. Fortunately this release pulls it's speed out of the can and gets it close enough that I'll keep FF as the default browser. Opera still feels faster to me, but there are a few things that I don't like--enough so that I'll stick with the (now only slightly) slower Firefox. |
