Hi,

If only Firefox would be as high quality as Epiphany, then I'm not going to
use Epiphany.
The problem is everything is linked up and compiled with Firefox like an
adware in Ubuntu,
but all the devs know that it's possible to progress with this unpliant
approach right from the start.
There are xulrunner, which the debian mainstream have already been compiled
in and been using in their
GNOME desktop without the adware.

I think people should think more about typesetting, rendering, and quality
of the documents they worked on rather than the popularity of the
application they use, I believe FOSS exists not just to provide an
alternative, but a high quality alternative application that can do their
jobs without loosing the quality of their work.

Regards,
Joel Bryan
