Noiceeee. Might stick with it or go to Chrome, the RC was horrible to use.

what was horrible with it? I didnt see any issue although I didn't really use it much.

I did actually hate Firefox 4 but that was in some of the beta versions as it just crashed and didn't respond most of the time which was quite annoying, although that is expected in beta products really. I've been using the last couple of beta versions such as 11 and 12 and seen a great improvement in terms of stability and performance. I've not came across any major issues in the latest version and it hasn't crashed once so far! So hopefully it doesn't start getting annoying.

Still slow, still doesn't render fonts correctly, good job Mozilla you short bus full of mongoloids, you've really done well this time.

I installed an addon, it asked me to restart, I closed it.

You installed an addon and because it asked you to restart the browser you then decided to go back to chrome? :S

Crashed just as much and was just as unstable for me as FF3. The only thing keeping me was all the extensions/plugins, which most of the ones I use are now ported to Chrome anyways.

Yup =]

Firefox needs to move on with the times, Chrome doesn't require a reboot!

Yeah I stayed with FF3 for the extensions, then I realised I didn't really need them and the one's I did need were readily available on Chrome.

Recently made the jump to Chrome and there's no chance of me even taking a look at FF4. Chrome is so much simpler, faster and reliable. Then of course there's thing like auto-syncing, auto-updating and best of all, built-in flash player. I remember at the time of FF3 release it was all the craze in Technology Discussion with a countdown and all, barely anyone cares these days
