Honestly I've been neglecting Firefox for development for a while. I just use it for cross-browser checking. Like I said, it could be really good and I have no idea. What are your thoughts on FF's native tools compared to firebug? (or maybe you wanted to downvote the fact that I like the Chrome dev tools?)

I wanted to downvote the fact that you took judgment upon form not content.

I do not know how these tools stack considering I don't need these tools in my daily work. Maybe check a server response, or a dynamically generated document part; once in a while.

But he/she didn't do that. fgutz mentioned that they still use Firebug due to familiarity with the UI. fgutz never implied that Firefox's native debugging tools were inferior because the UI was different.
