Alpha Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'm a bit disappointed with FireFox 3. First off, I don't like how there is no separate list of sites to go back or forward. Also, why is the drop down list for the address bar so short now? It won't even let you scroll down the list. Lastly, FireFox 3 is working like crap with Hotmail. It keeps reverting you back to the classic version and a lot of the options are not properly loading. It seems that this bug has been in existence during even the beta stages, but the Mozilla team failed to fix it. I guess they don't realize that millions of people use Hotmail. Also, does FireFox 3 feel a little slower for anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OverlordMondo Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I haven't actually tried Firefox 3 yet. There's nothing wrong with 2. I only switched to Firefox because everyone said Internet Explorer sucks. Which I won't argue, it probably does, but I may never have figured that out on my own.

Devia Eleven Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Actually Internet Explorer does not suck, I don't have any problems with it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, does FireFox 3 feel a little slower for anyone? I just use Thunderbird, that way I can have all my Yahoo, MSN and Gmail in one place Also FF3 is faster than FF2 but not by as much as is being made out. I have been testing my own extension from 2 through all the 3 RC releases and it is moderately faster. I only switched to Firefox because everyone said Internet Explorer sucks. Compared to Opera and FF it sort of does. Opera is 'better' than FF IMO, but it's just that FF is so much more extensible with all the addons. Opera's Widgets don't compare sadly.

gavin19 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I'm just waiting for someone to whip out a tweak guide for Firefox 3. This one covers a lot of ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme2damax Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I'm using Firefox 3.0 right now, it seems more resource friendly than 2.0.x.x. I'm still awaiting the rest of my plugins to be updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See my post on page one on how to update those addons yourself. It's easy, besides, they might never be updated or it could be a while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather wait and see, I don't have the patience to edit them myself. I know the popular extensions will probably receive updates, the ones that don't I'll edit myself.

I actually tried to do that with Fasterfox, followed the directions exactly, but it appears nothing has happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
