I wish Firefox would slow down the version releases. If its minor fixes then just do simple updates.

They can't, because they need to keep up with the version of Chrome. that's LITERALLY the only reason they release new versions so fast, because that's how fast Chrome increments their version number. Apparently when it was Chrome was in the 70's and Firefox was in the 20's/30's, I don't rmember, Mozilla found that (and this speaks to the intelligence of most people) many people trusted chrome more because...wait for it...the version number was so much higher.

I was just ranting a bit as Im aware of the situation. It is stupid and people frankly are clueless but friends and clients of mine are also tired of the constant version updating versus maintenance updates. Its one of the top questions I get asked as well as complaint so not everyone is clueless.
