Thought I'd never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.

There's also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/

The graph totally threw me off, first I thought this post was a joke that Firefox got slower and is now as slow as Chrome.

For some dumb reason the y-axis shows the score, but it's inverted..

It's inverted because on most occasions the y axis represents time, so less is better.

In order to not have bemchmarks where a lower result on the Y-axis is worse, they kind of invert it for scores.

I know it is confusing, but it helps non-technical people.
