Instead of asking Fx and Chrome/Chromium specific qns here, does anyone know good forums dedicated to these apps?

There is Mozillazine forums for Fx, any others?

[The official Mozilla and Google support forums just suck although they were planning to overhaul the Mozilla ones, but this was back in January so don't know what happened]

Not exactly a forum, but there is the mozilla Google Group:

http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.support.firefox/

The best forum I know is mozillaZine. The only problems are that it doesn't provide a RSS feed, which is my main method of reading posts and the fact that it is not Linux oriented. I don't know about you, but I feel like a fish outside the thank on a non-linux forum.

Anyway, are you looking for a solution to any particular issue?

Nope, no specific issue (right now :P)
Just looking for the future.

I've been on Mozillazine for a few years and its actually quite good for Linux. A lot of the senior members are on Linux (guaging from their Useragents) and I usually get replied to Linux specific questions.

What about Chrome/Chromium? Any good forums for that? I DO have a whole lot of questions for that :D

I usually get replied pretty fast too in the extension development forum, but what I meant was that I would like to follow that forum like I do here, for providing support to other users. The major problem for me is the lack of RSS. I don't have the patience to browse the forums, specially one with such a big volume of messages, mostly Windows related. Since I don't use Windows anymore, it just feels like a waste of time. I have tried many times, but I just give up after a short period of time and go back to ubuntu forums :)

I have no idea about Chrome, but since is a Google browser I suppose the majority of community support should be hosted on Google Groups.

Google groups is so 1998 :P
Those groups always seems dead no matter how frequently posted on they actually are.

This is the (typically Google spartan) official forum:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome

But it is a pain to use
