Really nice you are listening and responding to the community this well, that said the progress made during hack week is impressive but we'll have to see how fast and stable these suggestions leak through to nightlies and stable release. Keep up the stellar work, firefox is gaining momentum again, make good use of it :)

You're right. That's the next challenge: delivering. It will take time.

Right on, you and your teams' attitudes are encouraging!

At the moment, I really like Chrome because I just find the behavior of the Omnibar superior to Firefox's Awesomebar. But hot damn, you're making me question loyalties on my dev machine.

Haha, I just switched from Chrome to Firefox because I hate how Chrome prioritizes Google Search over my previous history. It's idiotic. Here, let me show you a clear example. http://i.imgur.com/uNsh7Yv.png Firefox clearly has the superior bar.

I appreciate this feature on mobile as it can help save me some more time-consuming taps, but I don't use it on Chrome since I can type faster than I can browse through the results it's guessing at.

I still don't get it way mozilla made it's own devtools, instead of integrating and extending on firebug. Had the devs of mozilla and the one of firebug diffs, which couldn't be solved?

Excellent, please don't forget about Windows users :) Apple's OS is not the only one with web developers (ie. Sublime as an example) !

Sublime is available on Windows, Linux, and Mac...

Why is the above comment downvoted? Totally relevant in addressing what the comment above it said.

Because the OP was pointing to Sublime as an example of a tool that is available, and popular, cross-platform.
