Can take some time to load up the first time especially if many add ons are installed.High quality standards compliant browser to display web pages correctly, as the designed intended.Frequent updates with new versions being released every 1-2 months.Huge support for add ons with a large developer community updating add ons frequently.Can keep over 100 tabs open without dampening Windows system performance.Firefox uses far less memory for each tab that is open.In newer versions of Firefox the bottom status bar has been completely removed in order to provide more space for web site content.Īdd ons can be installed with Firefox which will add further icon links to add on features in the toolbar and in the Tools menu. The interface for Firefox includes a hidden menu at the top, tabs below this with sleek forward and back scrolling buttons on either side of the tab line, and the toolbar which shows installed add on icons, and some bookmarked web sites. The getfirefox website also will detect Linux being used and direct the user to a suitable download resource for Linux users.
The most common way to obtain a version of Mozilla Firefox is through the Linux repository used with whichever Linux distros is being used. The support for the Linux version of Firefox is ongoing which is a good thing as some packages are no longer supported due to the smaller user base, but Mozilla seems commited to offering the browser on as many platforms as possible. The tabbed browsing is just as fast and efficient as found in other web browsers, far superior memory management than found with Chrome which eats memory for breakfast, a pop-up blocker, and a wide assortment of add ons to extend the functionality still further. Almost all the same features that made the browser popular on the Windows and Mac platform are present here with only a few exceptions with Windows-only or Mac-only add ons.
Mozilla Firefox for Linux is one of the better web browsers available for the Linux distros.
