Yeah that's a wordpress blog quickly put together outside of mozilla's official blogging infrastructure. There was no really good reason to do that, it was just laziness on our end.
Firefox + WebRender works great in Renderdoc, either capturing the D3D11 commands generated by ANGLE or forcing opengl. The D3D11 commands and shaders correlate pretty well with the GL commands emmitted by WebRender…
If you know that the result will not change over frames, blitting a cached image will always be faster than re-rendering. It's not necessarily a need, just an improvement. That said pathfinder is fast enough already…
I find some of your comments very aggressive. Yet you are lecturing people about being condescending. I honestly much prefer pcwalton's tone which I find much less condescending, interestingly. Pointing at code can be…
I do have ideas. I also have a decent knowledge about how Gecko's graphics engine works internally. And again, the expensive operations (actual image rendering, layout computation, compositing, etc.) all happen in the…
At some point we will really need be careful when talking about "native performances". FirefoxOS is written in JS on top of Gecko which is as "native" as it can be. if an app's UI is well written, all of the…
Indeed, when comparing ubuntu's mobile os running on a galaxy nexus with firefox os running on very cheap hardware, you should expect a difference. I would be interested in seing how ubuntu mobile runs on a 69 euro…
I would rather say that it is sad to see Ubuntu going in a direction that doesn't align with your tastes/needs. I personally think Ubuntu is better today than ever before (for the most part).
I see your point and it is perfectly valid. I am happy that GNOME tries come up with something new since there are still some good DEs like XFCE which propose a solid and classic user experience. Choice is there for…
> I like to put my toolbars and menus in the place I want to have them. Perhaps you don't realize the amount of work it represents to build a consistent and solid user experience while officially supporting letting…
I also believe that limiting customization is important. Any Firefox dev can tell how terribly hard it is to improve Firefox without breaking addons. GNOME does not have the man power of Mozilla, let alone Apple. They…
