I’ll like the new Firefox and Vivaldi is sadly Proprietär.
I have Firefox set to auto-upgrade on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It upgraded to version 57 overnight on Nov 16, 2017.
BTW, the firefox is actually a red panda, not a fox. I was in Nepal in the '70’s and saw one that a farmer had killed with a flintlock rifle after it repeatedly raided his hen house for eggs. Apparently real firefoxes could run a little faster.
I am also using Firfox on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and it updated to Quantum. I didn’t have any problems with it before, always very stable, and now it is really quick, though I never thought of the previous version to be slow.
And hooray for containers. They make using the internet so much less annoying.
@lee Red pandas are awesome! Anyone who is interested in the Firefox mascot story, see: https://hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/branding-firefox

Update
Looks like my mobile Firefox got a performance boost too. It updated a day after the desktop version. I still don’t get why we cannot do Private Browsing by default.
