I keep seeing people with devout hatred for my beloved Firefox, but none of you say why.

Because Firefox honestly used to be shit, especially in the early Phoenix/Firebird days, but now it isn't anymore, and they just haven't bothered to check it out again. The "killing all the existing extensions" thing really didn't help matters either.

I agree it was a heavy blow when they announced that, I didn't update for a few months, but man was it a nice fresh start, and I'm grateful that all the addons I had before have now made it over to the new system.

I admittedly didn't use FF before it was FF, I think I got into it around probably 2006 or so, but it's been great in my opinion ever since then.

I was really sour about the Mr Robot prank where they modified pages without informing the user. But weighing a prank gone wrong against the active goal of dicking over the internet I'll take the well meaning pranksters.

Where are these alleged people with a "devout hatred for Firefox"?

I used to use Firefox, then they killed all the extensions. That doesn't mean I somehow "hate it" LOL

But like, y'know, anyone that doesn't agree with you is literally Satan, right? 🙄
