How To Install Firefox Quantum in Kali linux /other Linux










THe latest version of Mozilla’s web browser Firefox is called Quantum because it’s blazing fast.

It has been coded in Rust instead of the usual C++ and it is the first web browser to truly utilize the power of a multi-core processor.

Because of these changes, Mozilla claims that Firefox is two times faster and takes 30% less power than its previous release.
