Haha, I was not a fan of the previous versions myself. There is a lot of fuss in social media over how good the current version is. Apparently it uses way less ram and uses up way less resources compared to Chrome(so easy on the battery), it utilizes more cpu than ram so it is apparently almost twice as fast. I'm typing this in Firefox, so far the experience have been silk smooth, if it keeps running good I'd keep it rather than going back to chrome
I'm simply delighted that my Adblock works well. Now I need to find an anti-adblock software for FF that works as good as the one I have on Chrome. Perhaps that will be today's project.
The new FF has not crashed at all since I installed it.
That didn't take long. Greasemonkey has been updated for FF 57.
