I wrote about the new Firefox Quantum and how I still adhere to Mozilla’s values. After the desktop, I updated the Android version.
I also wrote how computers still feel slow, and one of the reasons for it is feature creep and technical evolutions. Most of the time you add code, so you need more memory, so things slow down bit by bit, I guess.
But with Firefox, against all odds, this last update is faster. Since I always update Firefox on my Android for security reasons, I only had to wait a few days and do it. On mobile too, it looks faster. Congratulations, Firefox teams!
