IceCat sounds like a definite FireFox fork, am I right? I've always used Firefox myself but I'm just not liking the direction it's going in. I'm not using a touch screen computer, I don't want a fucking touch screen computer. I can understand simplifying things and I can understand the need for something to look 'pretty' but it should also work nicely with the tools that you have to access it. FireFox has become a magnificent SeaSlug. It'll look pretty in your aquarium but it's not going to work as well as one of those sucker fish thingies.

I think it's time to find a new browser not connected to Mozilla or Google. Rant rant, rant, rant.

Yeh, IceCat is a fork of FF. It's a FOSS fork. Can use addons the same way. I have completely moved away from FF after my experience with IceCat

How well is it maintained? Do they import fixes or is it maintained completely separately to FF?
