I'm glad someone brought this up. Firefox on Linux has many issues for me. Foxnews and CNN have about 10 rendering issues between them. overlapping text, terrible pixelation on thumbnails.
here is the difference between Firefox and Epiphany
Epiphany 2.20

Firefox b5

Notice how bad the photos look and the firefox one is missing the last sentences under the pics? I'm not using adobe or d/l any java. this is all rawhide. I pressed ctrl + 0 to set everything default. I dont know what the default font sizes should be but that shouldn't matter anyway.

I'm also disappointed most sites i visit only use half my screen by placing all content in the middle with 2-3 inches of whitespace on each side, but i guess that has to do with the site not being made for widescreen laptops, anything i can do to to use all my laptop realestate?
