Every time someone tries to warn others not to make a post about Firefox quantum, he is making a post about Firefox question !!

Kimmax109877y@AlexDeLarge I did. It's a solid upgrade, but nothing revolutionary that is that hype worthy in my opinion.

Kimmax109877y@Condor oh c'mon. You don't know me, so don't insist I don't know anything about the topic.
Of course very good work went into the engine rewrite and it's of course a big deal to figure out how to execute a normally non parallel task in a parallel matter, but does it if the user mostly sees a new GUI and a speed increase in the 5 percentish range to the version before? It may be a big deal on very low end machines and very slow internet speeds, but it's just not relevant for 98% of devrant.
And before you ask - I do use Firefox on a daily basis.
And comparing a rewrite of a browser with quantum mechanics - please. Actually it's a pretty awesome topic and I'm trying to get my head arround this at the moment, but I might miss quite a bit knowledge about physics to do so in a timely manner..
