Firefox should have appealed to the developer/hacker demographic. Instead they've made every effort to alienate those demographics in trying to appeal to the general public. They were never going to be able to compete against Google's influence, but they could have established a stronghold with the power-user communities that would grow slowly over time as they converted their friends.
For some reason I still cannot load unpacked extensions for more than 24hrs. I cannot load unsigned extensions unless i download a special build of firefox. Firefox doesn't support apple scripting. A stock install of firefox has more sponsored bloatware than Chrome. Great way to treat the power users.
