There was no comparing..  as I said, it was the early days of WWW.  But netscape itself was plagued with all kinds of bugs in the UI or page display and copious crashing.  The addon game back then was a pita as well.  We did however have Internet Explorer in 95. Which was better, all be it chained to the OS.  Then it wasn't better and it just sucked.  Off to firefox.
