You see that comment up there? The one that you have to click to see because it was incredibly immature and poorly written? Yeah, it's best to actively encourage people like that to remain on 4Chan because it keeps them all in one place. It's the same principle behind prison or a Freshman Lounge in high school.

It starts to suck when it becomes marketing-oriented (i.e. <a href="http://www.cheapo.co" target='_blank' >money</a>-oriented) and dumbed-down and changed-around for no reason (i.e. Office 2007). Microsoft started this trend around 2006 (Windoze Vi$ta) then Google made the dumbing-down of things and change-it-for-no-reason the popular software thing to do (a different search or news layout every 10 months) and now Mozilla wants to make their software all about marketing now too (change revision "numbers" for no reason). Combine changing things for no reason with the lack of preserving options for keeping it the way it was, for those who want familiarity and a plain interface, then it becomes a product of software arrogance.

Crashes are constant, always slow (like waiting 3 to 5 seconds to see what I'm typing) loosing good / essencial extensions support because of these unecessary updates. What Firefox's devs were thinking? If they wish to copy chrome style and way of development, at least do it right.

Constant 'Mozilla firefox is not responding'. On top of that, those idiot developers at Mozilla make it incompatible with comment boards on certain websites. Even Internet Explorer is more reliable than Firefox now. It never used to be like that. Just who are these stupid, incompetent Firefox developers anyway? I suggest the best thing they do is go back to basics I’m now on Windows 7 (64-bit) and on Firefox v5.0.1 and I have to say, every update just gets worse.
