Firefox outperforms Chrome on web benchmarks, and it leaks less of your personal info to Google.

[citation needed]

Chrome feels a lot faster than Firefox to me (Especially on Facebook!), yet I still use Firefox to resist Google's stranglehold on the web.

I recently installed it because of this news to give it a try and reality != benchmarks, also deals much worse with large amount of tabs open

> leaks less of your personal info to Google.

Hope you trust Mozilla with that same level of info (in twenty years)!

I don't understand comments like this. Chromium grinds to a crawl and even locks up with more than a handful of tabs, and its developers are deliberately adding new security vulnerabilities.

Misleading way to say more APIs, I presume?

The review process for new web APIs in general is pretty shoddy and not terribly concerned with security (eg Canvas). However I was specifically referencing this of the past few days: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36910978
