schnewj Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 HOLY COW! I just downloaded the latest FF update. It is an entirely new architecture that they have named Quantum. I haven't had any time to explore it, but they claimed lightning speed and they really delivered. My refresh rate I would subjectively say has doubled or tripled. Everything is loading fast, tabs, links, refreshes, everything. Link to comment

None at all...running smoother then it has for a long time. I haven't had time to fully explore, but none of the settings appear to have defaulted. Link to comment
lew Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 One caveat, the add-on called NoScripts no longer functions. To me, a script blocker is extremely important for browsing safety. FireFox has a recommended replacement but it isn't as intuitive to use. Link to comment
Fred W. Hargis Jr Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I did the upgrade this morning and it went very well...so far. It does seem to improve speed significantly, even on my slowish connection. Link to comment
