Gecko is evil

January 29, 2007

After Adam, I now too am giving Opera (v9.1) a chance. My main problem with Firefox 2.0 was the fact that it refused to remember my toolbar settings, switching back to the default set and size in each new windows. This started to piss me off so badly, I simply decided to ditch Firefox.

Other than that, Gecko is evil. I don’t know why, but I don’t like the way it renders pages.

Opera has a few quircks though. I cannot get the bookmarks bar underneath the address bar, and, more annoyingly, when you click on a directory in the bookmarks bar, the first two items are Bookmark page, and Open all folder items; this means I can no longer automatically click on the first item in the drop down menu. Annoyging, since I have had the same order of bookmarks for three to four years now, meaning my spatial memory is all messed up [insert sad smiley face].
