[Sigh...] FF vs Opera (Score 0)

Look, I did't want to do this but I'm seriously tired of the Firefox biggots. I used to think FF was a nice browser and all - no more after I saw this page. The guy seems to defend IE vs FF, but that's not the point (and anyway he gives Opera some bravos along the way)
Agreed, just because a troop of idiot zealots try to erase all references to FF malfunctions doesn't mean the product is that bad - after all, they all are. But this makes my blood boil to see that these same fuckheads are against "teh Big M$ evil" because they try scare tactics against open source etc. Yet, they do just the same.
As for Opera, I've been using it for quite a few years. I always try to be as open-minded as I can, and stopped to be a product or group or anything-zealot when I turned 15, so even though I was fully satisfied with Opera, when FF came out I tried it. It's still installed today, and I keep updating it when new releases come out. But to summarize my FF experience:

• It's a resource hog. I know the memory leak bug is actually a feature; to me it makes it even worse. And putting that particular bug apart, it takes ages to load it on any machine/OS I tried it on
• If you use it out-of-the-box, it's just plain uggly. It's all squares and rectangles with awful gray all around.
• Also, still out-of-the-box, compared to Opera, it has no interesting feature
• That's where extensions come in: you have 14 billions extensions, 75% of which are useless. In the remaining 25%, there are a lot that just do the same, only in a different way. Extension a has this that the b has not and vice-versa. Since you want those 2 features, you should install both extensions, but when you do it explodes.
• Then you update your browser with the latest version and BANG! there's ALWAYS a couple of extensions, even sometimes skin, that will break.

There are other little annoyances but these are my main complaints about it. Right now I use FF only for a couple of websites that don't render well in Opera. But if these sites are fixed in Opera 9, then I'll ditch FF forever without any regret.

Before you flame me, I'm not saying FF is a piece of shit (even though it may seem so). It's a good effort to make a nice browser, but it ain't there just yet, and I boycott it moslty because of the zealots hanging around it. I don't care too much about zealots usually (I wouldn't read /. if I did), but here they are hypocrits.
