The sentiment feels on point however, that this users experience with Firefox has been poor and issues flagged have not resolved in an eternity. I’ve definitely felt similar exhaustion with other systems.
Exactly. Present me an alternative that isn’t just better in principle, but as good or better in actual fact. I don’t like that Google is up in my asshole, but you know what? their shit works and issues get addressed.
I’m gonna go ahead and assume that every person on here talking about this problem is an arch Linux user like me (btw) because if you’re griping about chrome from a Windows OS that’s some kind of hilarious hypocrisy.
it’s not that niche - svg is a common format and it was difficult to work around. my point was more that the issue was known and just unlikely to ever be fixed, which makes me concerned about other issues I’m not experiencing today but might tomorrow.
That seems like an extremely niche issue.

So it’s ok to not fix it? I agee with original commenter. Firefox is full of bugs, particularly in dev tools, which renders it unusable for me
Every software has old bugs, that’s perfectly normal. The question is how relevant these bugs are for the average customer.
If a bug only affects 12 people among the millions of users, it’s not that relevant.
as a dev, we close bugs with a set SLA.
15 years is … well, it’s outside that.

I honestly would prefer to be using Firefox.
