Major additions to the browser include room-based Firefox Hello conversations, H.264 (MP4 files) playback on OS X, and integration with the Android download manager. Mozilla has opened up the Firefox Marketplace for the desktop, currently in beta. While Firefox Marketplace is already available on Firefox OS and Firefox for Android, the company is now asking users to help test apps on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

    Fuck off Mozilla, we do NOT want this cesspool of added crap. Light, fast and bulletproof is what is wanted, not this repulsive nonsense.

    Firefox is also a smaller download, a smaller install, starts faster, runs JavaScript faster, allows plugins on the mobile version, and allows users to run their own sync server, compared with Chrome.

    Mozilla's work is really shining these days. Firefox is a better browser by every metric I can think of.
