I never really cared that a browser could load a page in 1.5 seconds instead of 1.9.... I mean who cares?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

I didn't care until it consistently loaded faster.
That's now my new baseline, and anything slower than 'instant' is annoying.
I would care if that was no longer the case, because I don't like being constantly annoyed.

That said, I don't think the page loading speed is noticeably different between major browsers.
The addons, customisation, privacy and resource usage are where it's at.

I'm just hoping that some competition to chromium stays afloat.

I'd like to try out ff but I'd have to use it for a few days. Is it possible to possible to sync passwords and bookmarks with my Google account like chrome? How's the touchscreen support?

Functionality wise, chrome is better than Firefox but it's bad when it comes to privacy and ads

One thing I've been annoyed with after switching to Firefox is the iffy password manager performance. It's so common for it not to remember a password that it should, or, weirdly, for it to only remember the password once I've typed the whole username in and hit tab.
