Fazit: Die Programmierer des Firefox-Ersatzes locken auf ihrer Website mit tollen Versprechungen. In den klassischen Browser-Benchmarks kann der Browser nun tatsächlich minimal bessere Ergebnisse abliefern. Wer mit einer nicht eingedeutschte Bedienoberfläche und manuellen Updates leben kann sollte "Pale Moon" unbedingt einmal ausprobieren.
They seem rather unimpressed with the fact that their benchmarks (whichever they use, probably sunspider? :D ) don't give it a miraculous speed boost.

And requiring "Manual Updates" isn't even correct :P It's a choice, for one, to automatically update, and takes 30 seconds to set if that's what you want. Neither is the "nicht eingedeutschte bedienoberfläche", if they would have taken 1 more minute to install the German language ;) Sure, it takes a few minutes to "Germanize" it, but how often are you going to install a new browser? ;)

So, funny that the editors are unimpressed (3 blobs of 5) but the users are happy (with 96%)

The editors are only happy if they got money i think
