PurpleGaga27 37 Posted November 15, 2017 Well I am pretty sure Quantum isn't named by a James Bond title "Quantum of Solace". Ever since Firefox 4.0, only three design changes were made and 53 versions later, it still look like the same old browser. Starting in Mozilla Firefox 57, I might as well call it Firefox 7.0. Not only it's using a new design, it's also using a new web engine, probably to compete with Microsoft Edge using less RAM. Some people are saying it should edge Google Chrome on RAM usage by a reduction up to 30% (and that's a decent percentage -- I expected at least 50%). Article: http://www.pcgamer.com/firefox-quantum-is-the-first-browser-in-years-to-threaten-chrome/ I am currently trying out Firefox 57 as a portable app and see what it runs like. I still use Firefox 56 portable to run Tiberium Alliances. Share this post Link to post

Doctor Destiny 40 Posted November 16, 2017 It's fast, I give it that. Problem is... it breaks a shitload of extensions. Not going to 57 on my desktop if I can help it. If ESR keeps the old style, I'll remain on Firefox but if ESR goes the way of ruining extensions, Firefox will be a thing of the past. Share this post Link to post
jimmypham3875 0 Posted November 27, 2017 There is a review video between Firefox Quantum and Chrome, i think that firefox has a re-born at this version. It look new. Share this post Link to post
Doctor Destiny 40 Posted December 27, 2017 Chrome has fuck all on the newest iteration of Firefox. I still prefer Vivaldi over the others though. I got multi-row tabs on it so I might just use it full time regardless. Share this post Link to post
