Firefox 1.0 sucks! - GoFuckYourself.com

V_RocKs · 11-09-2004, 04:50 PM

I downloaded and installed it. Once of the good things is now I can start clicking links before the page has fully loaded.

But the bad thing is that I used to use a lot of javascripts that did webmaster duties or page creation duties for me. Now they cause Firefox to hang.

Also at some points it just locks up or gets extremely slow when opening new windows and I have to close firefox completely and start fresh again for about 30 minutes...

Fuck this shit, I am going back to the beta version.

None of my good extensions or themes have been updated.

I use the full Mozilla package ever since Firefox has been unstable for me.

A good browser doesn't choke on bad javascript

So far it seems the fastest version yet and not seeing any javascript or hanging at all.

it hasn't been out long. There are 77 extensions as of right now.

I unintalled pr1 and then installed the final. Everything works fine for me .

sstory · 11-10-2004, 04:24 PM

Have you ever used the JS Console to see if your javascript sucks

regardless, Firefox shows webpages the way they are SUPPOSE to look.

What I mean by that is, it looks for PROPER code, not shitty as WYSIWYG code that Frontpage spits out and Internet Explorer can pick up on.

Firefox is a good browser that promotes web standards or proper coding techniques.

Is your computer slow?

Serge Litehead · 11-10-2004, 04:27 PM

can you tell me how much memory single instance of Firefox eats in task manager? thx.

Antonio · 11-10-2004, 04:44 PM

Firefox is absolute piece of shit - it hangs, freezes, and fucks up every 5 min... K-Meleon is simply the best browser ever.

xclusive · 11-10-2004, 04:46 PM

I have yet to have a problem with Firefox guess it depends the computer that it's installed on...

I don't think so. It more depends on what are you using your browser for. Just leave Fiefox idle for more than 2 min and see how it hangs after that, try to load a page while you're playing with the settings - it crashes, plus it is much slower than K Meleon. I only use Firefox only when I need to use Roboform - thank god that doesn't happen too often.

bleh...67,000K. what a pig. I'm starting to dislike this browser.

V_RocKs · 11-10-2004, 05:04 PM

Hmmm 1.0 sucks... the old version worked better.. this one keeps loading new windows into the last used window when opening a window from inside another application. That was one of the reasons I didn't like IE!

Also if you open multiple windows at once it is a lot slower to open and display their info and/or give you the mouse back.

DWB · 11-10-2004, 05:57 PM

It's working fine (1.0) for me. *knocks on wood*

Sambo · 11-10-2004, 06:34 PM

The more I use it the more I am pissed off with V1

Def going back to PR1.... it works like a dream

I wonder how they fucked up so badly?

titmowse · 11-10-2004, 07:01 PM

i have to agree. i went back to the pr1

For fun open taskmgr and note the mem usage of firefox.. While llooking at taskmgr minimize all ff windows.. It will drop ram usage as much as 75%

Yep. Found this out the hard way. Killed my search engines I'd installed, too.

Not happy with this 1.0.

Other then a few of my extensions not being updated yet, I'm not seeing any problems with 1.0. I'm sure my missing extensions will be updated in the next day or two.
