People only care about Mozilla because of Firefox and Firefox is falling behind again, no doubt coinciding with the mass layoffs and the ejection of the Servo engine. They've caught up with Chrome on most fronts a year or three ago when their reinvented CSS and layout engine was released, but they're still on the back foot these days. This is incorrect. Firefox recently surpassed Chrome in a key benchmark and has generally been on a roll lately. Yes, their current iterative improvements are not as sexy as the big release of Quantum, but to say they're currently falling behind is the opposite of the truth. They've just pulled ahead. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl 1 point 3 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) [This comment has been deleted by an automated system] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Audacity9961@feddit.ch 0 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) (1 child) This is not correct. arewefastyet.com shows very clearly that although chrome beats firefox in some benchmarks, firefox trades blows with it and is similar to or faster in others. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl 1 point 3 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
