Extensions are the only thing that keeps me from swapping to Opera 9.5 tbh. Bizarrely fast browser! ---

^Firesizer… it lets you resizes the browser in 2 clicks. If your on windows the IEtab is great. Wish there was a safari tab one also. ---

[quote=Gundark;2346465]I surprised at you Mac guys, I’d have figured you’d have taken Opera over Safari. I’ve never had anything but bad experiences with Safari. I guess it comes with the Mac (like Internet Explorer and Windows), but it just doesn’t have the features that Firefox or Opera has. Opera works pretty well, but I really like having all the extension options that Firefox has.[/quote] Like i said, until Opera can offer the amount of accessibility from my keyboard as firefox can, I will stick with what I know. Inside-out, that is. ---

Safari’s actually pretty nice just because it’s so simple. Firefox always feel really bloated when I compare it to Safari. ---

People are mystified about how to cook ribs properly. I’m going to walk you through every step using a basic charcoal grill.maplestoryer sell [maple story mesos Obviously if you have different or more high-tech equipment, you’ll need to modify these procedures. If you’re setting up your backyard charcoal grill for indirect cooking, you’ll want to use a disposable aluminum pan to capture the grease [url=http://www.maplestoryer.com/]maple story power leveling](http://www.maplestoryer.com/) as the fat renders while cooking. Some people add water to this pan to add moisture to the cooking environment. ---

In summary , quicker than ff2 , just as safari’s but have tons of plugins , recommended for users who also use non-english languages. ---

[QUOTE=Gundark;2346465]I surprised at you Mac guys, I’d have figured you’d have taken Opera over Safari. [/QUOTE] When I was a PC user I always used Opera, tried to stay with it when I changed over on to my Mac but I gradually got taken over by Safari which is what I use for my every day browsing. I’m not going to argue about how extensible Firefox is, I do have it and I love the WebDeveloper extension but I’m not “WebDeveloping” 24/7, there’s a time and a place for it. ---

I think Firefox 3 is very weird … it shows image outlines in Youtube, it doesn’t even render it properly … some site takes years to load, but with FF 2.0.0.14 I didn’t face any problem … I have 3 browsers installed, Safari, Opera and FF … and FF 3 has the worst performance in terms of page rendering and this is really weird coz FF was best before FF 3. ---

Maybe we should of done this better to figure out what it crashes on. I haven’t crashed it yet and I have like 20 tabs always open. Like is it for highly JS sites or what. I cannot get this thing to crash for the life of me. ---

I’ve only every been able to crash Firefox by doing weird stuff with Flash files. What are you guys doing to make you experience so many crashes? ---

Firefox 3 has been rock solid for me since RC1. Except when I installed the Flash Player 10 beta, but that’s of course another story… ---

^FF3 has anomalies in its keyboard events to javascript/flash/ probably silverlight also. They are probably all related a single bug in ff3. ---

I think they should also implement those “URL fixer” plugins. I don’t know how many times I’ve typed in google,.com or google.con or .cok [Previous page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/firefox-3-thoughts/263632.md?page=3) [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/firefox-3-thoughts/263632.md?page=5)
