Is using Nightly a meme?

Using bleeding-edge anything is a meme, unless you're one of the devs responsible for building and testing it.

No, but it can be a hassle. If you find a broken build (broken as in certain feature that you use, not working as expected) you'd have to revert back, and try again after a week or so. It's fine, I have it portable and I only had to do this a couple of times in the past five years or so, but I still prefer to use stable x64 as my main browser.
It's alright. Crashing has been very rare for me, every couple months at most, and whenever it happens I just roll back to the previous nightly until another update comes out that always fixes it. Performance is iffy, I'd say 9 times out of 10 Nightly feels lighter but sometimes an update rolls out that makes it feel bloated and sluggish. Them's the breaks, know the risks. Some useful and fully functional stuff like audio playing and container tabs stay on Nightly for a long time before making it to the stable channel, I dunno how long they take to make it to beta though. Others like e10s are more obvious about being works in progress, but you can always opt out of using them. The developer/"compact" theme is also bretty good.

I've been using it for almost a year now, and it's been just as strange as the stable branch.
It also gets all the improvements a few months earlier, so it always ends up being faster.
From my own tests, it is very close to ungoogled chromium in terms of speed.
>>59399094
Yes, it's slower than stable.
>>59399094
It's fine.

As an ESR user, not only is nightly way too bleeding edge, but regular Firefox is way too bleeding edge.

Breathing is a meme. Stop that.

As you can see, Nightly will be at version 56 on 2017-04-18 but release channel won't get it until 2017-10-03 so Nightly is far ahead (except when it comes to security updates of course).
Yeah no I wouldn't recommend it for everyday web browsing. I've had issues with it in the past just sometimes flat out refusing to play youtube videos.
its better than webkit and safari tech preview which some retard rated the best browsers
>no webm support
>anywhere near god tier or above
an apple fag must have made that tier list
Developer Edition master race
Nightly is crashing if you play any video with hardware acceleration enabled on Windows.
If you enter any https website, "Performing TLS handshake..." will show up in statusbar, fucking pissing me off.

What was your reason for legacyfox?

Less trouble. Only have to turn off some new Mozilla crap once a year instead of once every few weeks. Comes by default in the Debian repos. Speed is last on my list of priorities for a browser since I block so much JS.
>using a developer version of a SJW browser that getting shittier every version
Yes its a meme

Using Firefox is a meme.
