What does it look like with a bunch of tabs open?

#22Glad they finally copied Chromium.
Would be great if they copied it too with regards to startup speed and JS execution speed.

#23Where's the mockup for Windows? There are way more people running Firefox on Windows than OS X.

It's towards the bottom. Just scroll down.

#26Chrome, is that you?

#27I can't believe nobody's complaining about the missing dedicated search box. I thought that was everyone's big beef with Chrome. Then again, I haven't used Firefox in quite some time so maybe they've already dropped it.
What's your beef with the chrome search box?

#28Wow. I really hope this isn't just speculation and something that's being put into production. Yeah, it looks like a Chrome clone, but it's been done well and with a slight twist. As a dedicated Chrome user, though, it's going to take more than just a coat of paint to get me to switch back. Can't wait to see where this ends up.
What would you want to see in another browser that would make it worth switching away from chrome?
Be faster than Chrom(ium) with regards to start up speed and JS execution.
I abandoned FF after having used it since it was "Phoenix 0.1", because it had become slow and bloated, like NN had been before. Would love to switch back, but not if I can open 5 Chromium instances in the same time it takes to open one FF window.

#29Earlier quoted context omitted.
Personally, I think all these weird modern UIs look like crap, and the relatively standard Firefox UI on Linux is quite nice.
I don't know, that floating button in the top left bugs me in linux. It makes sense in windows because it just blends in with the tabs next to it, but in linux it's on its own line with the tabs showing up below it. The wasted space annoys me to the point that this is one of the main reasons why I do not use Firefox anymore.
I used to have the same problem, but it turns out that you can tell compiz to hide the title bar. Takes a tiny bit of getting used to (Alt is your friend), but it's pretty nice otherwise.
