Firefox 57 or Firefox Quantum: it is the fashionable name in technological gossip An update that has seen the light two days ago and that many users already have installed on our computer. Whether it is a marketing campaign or not, the truth is that once the performance improvement is installed it is notable and has made many doubt whether to return to the fold.
And it is that for the oldest of the place (also a server), Firefox was one of the first browsers used, the one that entered like an elephant in a china shop breaking Internet Explorer of the time in a thousand pieces.Lightweight, with a thousand accessories... fabulous at the time
But time passes and Firefox was getting bigger and heavier A time when the almighty Google also arrived on the market Chrome. The big G browser, the most used by all users but also one of the most gluttonous in resources."
Hence we find ourselves in the market with three alternatives from which to choose (IE no longer counts). A light and optimized Edge but few extensions, a slow Firefox and perhaps stuck in time, and a very gluttonous Google Chrome for resources. Which to choose?
For practicality, many are the users (and I include myself) who at the time went from Firefox to Chrome. However this update, which is one of the most important that Mozilla has released since Firefox 1.0 arrived in 2004, has made us look again at the browser of the fox.Firefox Quantum is now available for Windows, Mac and Linux with a target of mobile devices soon.
And the fact is that Firefox Quantum is fast, so much so that speed improvement (up to double) to the previous version of Firefox A new rendering engine, a new tab system, a new interface called Photon, cleaner and more minimalist, and a new CSS engine, Stylo.
The problem" is that Firefox Quantum improves not only Firefox, but also does the same with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge Firefox Quantum is faster because it's designed to take advantage of multiple processor cores, and it's less gluttonous, consuming less RAM and less power.
We are unfaithful and we switch to Firefox, how?

In addition, and as happened with Chrome, we can have all our browsing history on our mobile thanks to Sync All we have to do is have an account and In this way, we can access our bookmarks, saved passwords, common history and even the web pages that we keep open from any device.
