Feedback Summary

Desktop

Firefox 15:

  • Norton was an issue for a day but should be updated (still getting some traffic -- there's Norton for Mac?!).
  • Slow/jerky scrolling [1] (maybe. We haven't seen it on SUMO, just input)
  • Bookmarks not visible on the bookmarks toolbar (some mentions of all toolbars missing): [2][3][4][5][6][7]. This may not be Firefox 15 specific (but there are definitely more mentions of it in 15 than 14)

Firefox 15 (Released Tuesday!)

The past 24 hours of reviews are averaging 4.89 stars.
