This idiotic break-neck upgrade speed, so that developers can't even keep up, and all the new "features", that really just stink. Firefox was such a great browser, and now it's impossible. I'm on Win 7, with an HD monitor, that is "wide screen", and every page, is tiny, with a ton of space to either side of the actual stuff I need to be able to read.

Plus, the complaint threads are getting locked. I thought Google and Microsoft were arrogant. I used Mosaic, then Netscape, and have been a huge fan of Firefox since the beta of 1, and now it is just a terrible experience.

This forum is for receiving support from other Firefox users.

The area for complaints is here - http://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback


As far as the new features that have been introduced; if you don't need a specific feature, don't use it. If you don't know how to disable a new feature - just ask how to not have it appear for you.

If you make the slightest effort at asking for support here, you should get a resolution to your issues. Pulling a "grumpy old man" routine won't help you achieve a resolution to what's bugging you.
