Can someone remind me why we stopped using Firefox a while back? There was some piece of news that broke everyone’s trust, but I can’t remember what Mozilla did. Was it a change in their user agreement?

    It was. It was crazy fast and lightweight at the time.

    It gained massive market share.

    It became the default development target for websites.

    Other browsers started getting left behind.

    Each step syphons users from other browsers, compounding issues.

      The dev tools in Chrome were a revelation. I think Firefox had something similar (Firebug?) but the Chrome tools seemed better.
