Konqueror is not abandoned, but Rekonq is generally the premier KDE browser nowadays. Any KDE install still includes Konqueror, even if it is not the default browser, because its backends power a lot of various parts of a KDE desktop.

What about chrome doesn't respect web developers? Chrome's web debugging in browser is very good, and until recently firefox didn't even compete in that regard.

Are you kidding? Firebug was the gold-standard for a very long time, and for a very good reason. If you're talking Firefox's built-in tools, then sure, but talking about Firefox while ignoring extensions is laughable.

IE invented that. and ie + visual studio to debug JavaScript is years ahead of both chromium and Firefox. does that mean you should now love ie?

Firefox didn't make Firebug though. Chrome has supported developers directly a lot longer than Firefox has.

what's the difference of Firefox doing something vs Firefox enabling people to do something?

the later is actually even better.

also, Firefox has venkman before all that.

And Chrome's developer tools were based on the stuff written by Apple for Safari.
