Video: Firefox Quantum will give you a faster browser but there’s a price to pay
Almost three years ago to the day, Mozilla switched a decade-long search strategy that placed Google as Firefox’s global default search provider and began carving up territories.
It signed a deal for Yahoo to be the default for US Firefox users and left Google as the default for the rest of the world, except Russian and China. Now, Mozilla has given Yahoo the shove and reinstated Google as the default for users in the US.
The change in the default US search provider came as Mozilla launched Firefox Quantum, version 57, a faster and lighter browser thanks to a major overhaul of the rendering engine, new multi-core support, and more efficient handling of tabs.
