firefox sucks on a mac

October 21st, 2007

as a web designer, i can’t imagine life without firefox.

well… until i used it on a mac.

it’s annoyingly slow, does not display some applications properly and hangs for some weird reason. i can’t even surf friendster properly because my so-called incredible browser hangs whenever i encounter user profiles overloaded with multimedia stuff (like, multiple embedded music and videos playing simultaneously. annoyingly unappealing, but that’s another story). right-clicking on a page takes the drop-down menu a couple of minutes before it loads, and the sight of the mac’s beachball-like loader is starting to get into my nerves.

if it weren’t for firefox’s useful web development plugins, i would’ve preferred using safari instead. or camino. or flock. i hope mozilla will address this issue sooner, this is worse than using ie.
