this logo is very clearly just firefox's except blue! windows has been asking to restart for weeks to show off its latest FF knockoff.

yet all azuarc of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

When Chrome started getting bundled with fucking every other piece of software in existence and Google started coding some of their stuff (Youtube and Gmail being the biggest offenders, but far from the only one) to intentionally perform far better in Chrome than in Firefox.

I stopped using Firefox a few years ago because it was such a memory hog

I just assumed it never got better and thats why people stopped

can't speak for anyone else, but I used FireFox for YEARS. It was pretty good, but the issue is that every 1-2 years it would have this issue where my browser would get corrupted and I had to reinstall a fresh file to get it to open. transferring my old bookmarks over to the fresh install was either a pain in the ass, or I just lost them all and had to rebuild my bookmarks library again.

at a certain point I got tired of doing this and installed Chrome instead. haven't encountered the same issue even one time since I've been using chrome.

I use Chrome exclusively for YouTube and Twitch. Firefox seems to do better for everything else and somehow in 15 years of using it I've never run into the problem of it using excess memory. But I have seen Chrome do that a ton.
