firefox release schedule

what the blue fuck motivated mozilla to start adding numbers onto firefox faster than a university professor

"lolololol if we make the release number astronomically high people will think its advanced, modern, and not using literally decades old backends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! rather than actually improving our product to make it more appealing lets imitate chrome"

nonprofit my asshole

what are you going to install?

you cant just turn off updates, that makes you vulnerable to the evils of the internet

i think xombrero has a windoz port you can try, though it's unix-y as fuck so you might have trouble getting around with it

thats what happens when you let 3 or 4 browsers control your entire market

there's loads of browsers for windows but you just dont know about most of them

install maxthon ffs

or try xombrero if you're feeling frisky

careful spinny you have no idea what you're talking about

if you want to get into it all browsing is 'cloud browsing' all 'the cloud' is is online storage, which is what websites are (stored HTML documents that your browser downloads and interprets)

just try it

right now i've been using epiphany with javascript and plugins shut off because it doesnt have any noscript variant and it's pretty good

it's incredibly basic, just has the essentials and a couple built-in extensions you can use if you want. it reminds me of IE but not slow as shit (although it sucks with web 400.0 sites like youtube and whatevs)
