Are you finding Firefox quite buggy?


Hey gang,

I've been a very happy FF user for some time, but recently had to use Chrome for a while. Coming back into FF I noticed a lot of bugs that I wasn't aware of before.

Often pages dont load CSS / js correctly, I have to Ctrl + Shift + R

Often Autofill doesn't work, it saves passwords under "No user" or not at all

Crashes at least once every 48 hours.

Is it just me? If not, any good alternatives more privacy friendly than Chrome?

Works flawlessly for me.

Chromium, as far as I know. People love Vivaldi around here but I have no idea what their privacy story is like.

Works great mostly. Just one issue. It randomly hangs when starting ff for first time after system(windows 7) boot. I digged everything, disabled all telemetry, unwanted confige etc. No luck so far.

Otherwise it is working great, I have 800+ tabs open on 4gig ram, c2d(2008) ancient machine. It just works.
