Why is Firefox losing the browser war?

more options

In South East Asia , Chrome has beaten Firefox. I have a sense of loyalty that's why I hate seeing FF losing its users . For one, Firefox 4 still crashes and sometimes links don't work on pages because probably it's js engine does a bad job. Another thing why people are migrating to Chrome is because it runs Flash fast. And this Mozilla idiot Jay Sullivan tells us because Flash crashes Mozilla alot. But honestly I have nort experienced any crashes on Chrome yet. While with Firefox 4 it crashes even when I am not using any plug-ins

You think Mozilla is losing the battle? http://glow.mozilla.org/

Your user agent identifies you as using Safari to post your complaint, so we cannot see which version of Firefox you're running at the moment.

Firefox isn't losing users, but Firefox's growth (as far as the number of active users, not percentage of internet traffic - that is dropping) has been very limited by the growth of Google Chrome.

IMO, Mozilla made a big mistake by making Firefox 4.0 look like Chrome. "If I wanted a browser that looked like Chrome, I'd use Chrome." Firefox is better off having its' own unique User Interface, instead of copying Oprah, IE9, and Chrome.

I'm still using Firefox 3.6.16 instead of Firefox 4.0, I see no real advantage in using 4.0 at this point in time. And, this isn't the first time I have "skipped" a version, I used Firefox 3.0 until Firefox 3.6 came out - I never "got into" Firefox 3.5.
