Why did Firefox change their design to look like Google Chrome? - voicelesslaborer590 - 04-28-2014 02:43 AM

Does this mean that Google Chrome is better in a way than Firefox.

I think you need to update you version of Firefox and see what I'm talking about. They did copy their format.

Firefox is crap. I used that for so long.

Because Google Chrome is the favorite browser of computer users.
Every company tries to copy its better competition.

No. It isn't way better.
And they didn't copy off Google Chrome. If they copied off Google Chrome, Firefox 4.0 would look like Google Chrome on all platforms which it doesn't, they simply interfaced with the Windows graphical API to make it look like a more natural part of Windows. Which is what Google did with Chrome.

EDIT:
uhm...dude, I've been using Firefox 4 since it was in beta.
Windows is the only version in which Firefox 4 looks anything like Chrome. In GNU/Linux and *BSD it looks like Firefox always has looked. I'm telling you, it is just because they are using the Windows Aero API.
