No matter how compelling the rest of Mozilla’s offerings were, they could never convince me to hit that “Yes” button whenever Firefox asked whether I’d like to set it as my default browser. Every time I’d get ecstatic over a major new Firefox update - hoping to, at long last, break free from the hegemony of Google Chrome - my hopes would be crushed as soon as I began browsing the web like I normally do.įirefox’s performance would fall noticeably short and struggle to keep up with my workflow, sending me scurrying back to Google Chrome after a few minutes of poking around. I have been in an on-and-off relationship with Mozilla Firefox for the past five years.
