I Stop Using Firefox 3

Just a quick update.

I think there are too many unresolved/compatibility problems on the fastest and the coolest browser around, Firefox 3. In my machine, this browser crashes like fat man eats cake, sometimes 3-4 times a day sometimes more. In the last couple of days, it crashes whenever i open Gmail. It’s so retarded, how come i can’t using Gmail? When i do search on the web, all i can find are different Gmail - Firefox 3 unresolved problems.

Then this thought cross through my mind, if regular unsavvy internet user want to use Firefox 3, how come they should browse around tech forums just to make their ‘cool’ browser works with Gmail? I think most people don’t need that.

I quit using it and switch back to Firefox 2, i hope they could fix this compatibility problems if not then the world record downloads are just numbers of abandoned software download, never converted into users.

    Hey. What extensions do you use? Repeated crashes often come from unstable add-ons installed into Firefox. You could also try starting with a clean profile and one by one adding the extensions you want. Crashing 4 times a day is not normal…

    Fred,

    I consider myself a Firefox evangelist while FF3 crashes everytime i open Google websites, which is also important for many people. What should i say?

    But thanks for stopping by, i really appreciate it. I should try your suggestions and keep this blog updated on that issue. You’ll be pinged if you don’t mind.
