I’ve been using Firefox since it was called Phoenix. Mozilla, for all it’s flaws, has been our first and only line of defense for an open web for so long.

Damn… I think I came on a bit later than that. I don’t recognize the icon of Phoenix so I doubt I made the switch that early on!

I think I started using it in the 1.x times. I remember all the flaws it’s had since. I’ve given lots of other browsers a try in the meantime but none come close to Firefox. They might be good enough for others but for power users Firefox is the way to go.
