I’m so excited! Will it not suck completely? Maybe!

It was a joke…
Geez. Linux community is extremely uptight and extremely triggered by any challenge, even whimsical. Relax guys. But seriously, Firefox kind of sucks.
So just to install chrome?
Edit: I got down voted for saying people use edge for downloading Chrome. A lot of edge lovers here, who would have known?
I know the Linux community doesn’t want to know, but Firefox is not as belowed as you might think.
I don’t really know, but when they have weird illogical views that they defend with trump like arguments, I think they are kids. They might not be 10.
That’s why I say it’s silly to stick with a company because of some hypothetical moral stance or some higher ethical goal. They always end up disappointing you.
Its the only browser that has issues with some websites and web apps. That’s not a badge of honour. Use what works. There will be a time and place where correct decisions will have to be made, Firefox is not it.
That’s a strawman. It is not like that at all and I never said it was. I even specifically said that I know the reason it is like it is. I do know how to work with it. And no, I have an ideology, something I mentioned many times : I’m a pragmatist.
Many developers have narrow views. Probably most have.
I have not taken anything here personally. I have answered all the questions even those that were rude. I did all this in high spirit because it seemed like a good debate. But it mostly really wasn’t. Because most people reply with basically : your experience isn’t valid because you suck. That’s what almost all replys were. Even yours.
So let’s not pretend any further this is going anywhere and just end it. Have a great day.
You are going in circles, making a strawman for me. Chill. I’m not a soldier for any software. Use whatever you like. I dont care. I shared my experience with Firefox. I’m sorry it’s different than yours, but it is what it is and no attacks on me and fallacies you what to string on are going to change it.
It seemed like people were interested, so I answered all the questions, even those that were offensive and rude and many were (very nice “community” ). I think this is the end. Bye.
What harm? What are you taking about?
If some miracle happened that all of a sudden Firefox would have a critical mass of users, we would start checking it. It’s not a big deal.
Im grateful for you suggestions and your calls for me to learn something. I’m sure they are well meaning and not as patronising as they sound at first.
The facts are : we don’t get many Firefox users. As far as we know most things are functional if not 100% visually correct. We don’t tell anyone not to use Firefox. I personally have stopped using Firefox because of broken apps (not mine specifically).
I don’t need to defend my position here. I don’t care why apps are not working, they just aren’t and I need them. Anyone can scream and cry how this is not firefoxes fault - nobody cares while the apps still aren’t running.
I shared my experience and almost everything I got was attacks on me. Many of them very personal about what I am and who I am even though nobody here knows anything about me. People are really offended, like I said something bad about their mother. It’s effin bizzare.
I’m sorry your favourite browser is not so successful as you want. Really truly sorry, but you don’t know anything about me, what I do and how lazy I am.
Not ignorat at all. Very conscious about it all. I very consciously don’t want to use a browser that breaks some websites and apps.
Little child? Don’t be pathetic. This is not a fight. We are not competing. I shared my experience. You know how bizzare and absurd it is for people to attack you and try to convince you, that your experience is somehow wrong. It doesn’t make any sense. And then someone joins in and thinks they will insult you by calling you a little child. Absurd. Not worth my time. Bye.
That my view is narrow and that developers somehow can’t have narrow views.
Omg grow up. It was a joke. Relax dude. Chill. People get worked up about the stupidest things.
I shared my experience and all I got was relentless attacks that I tried to answer and attacks everywhere.
I’m not a soldier, I use what works and develop for what works. I don’t give a shit about you or your community. Especially if this here is the community. A bunch of humorless assholes with no self reflection and no sense of self irony.
Well not all. Some were pretty cool. You not. Bye.
Trend is down, somebody just wrote it’s up 🤣.
Look, I don’t care. I don’t. I use what works and I develop for what works. Then I go home and spend time with my family.
I have no interest of progressing any agenda for anyone. If mozzila what’s to be a player, they should address the reasons why no one is using their browser. That for sure ain’t me.
Look I understand you are offended. I didn’t mean to offend you. But I’m not calling anyone names I’m defensive because this has been an all out attack on me! But I didn’t take it personally, this is my opinion, it’s clear that many share it otherwise not so many websites would be broken on Firefox.
I’m just calling it like it is.
I never said anything about me. I only said I’m pragmatic.
Which one is that. I guess I’ve been left out of the loop.
