Firefox Myths
Firefox Myths: In other words, why you should stick with Internet Explorer, or at least download Opera.
My experience of Opera has not been bad. Even though I would rather think of open source as the best way to make software, I'm fully aware from my experience at programming with other people in a beginning computer science class, that not all people will understand (or even read) the code written by other people. With people of differing level of competency in programming codes, it's inevitable that conflicts will occur. And from those conflicts, best codes will not likely happen because people have emotional connection to their "work of arts."
What that leads to, of course, is pride and laziness. Firefox is getting bigger and already passes Internet Explorer and Opera in the status of being a resource hog, and I'm honestly wondering why they are not streamlining or tying all the codes together to simplify them.
I'm guessing that, as it gets bigger, people are disinclined to fix many glaring vulnerabilities, or to look through the entire, massive source code.
Indeed, we would need someone autistic who is capable of dangling and juggling several different routines together.

I knew it from the beginning.
Thanks for bring it up even I never saw Firefox myths.

You might want to take a look at some of the factual errors before taking this article at face value. The guy who wrote it has quite a history of lying, even once pretending to be me in order to spam his page.
By the way, I'm the source he uses for the standards support information, which he tried to misrepresent numerous times and now lies about things I've done to it.
Thanks for the link! I always try to keep an open mind. Sometimes pro-Firefox can be overly enthusiastic, and anti-Firefox overly close-minded.
I've never lied about anything. As you can see nanobot is listed under the Fanboys section for a reason. And there are no factual errors on the page. Though the Fanboys would like you to believe otherwise. As for being closed minded I am the farthest thing from.
Yes, I can see that some things listed on the Factual Errors page are close to personal attacks than constructive arguments.
There's also been no discussion over the memory leak or the large size of Firefox compared to IE, or even Opera.
