I've used Firefox for years and years now, and I love it so much. I've gotten so accustomed to everything it has, all the plugins, all the hotkeys, everything. Even at school on macs, with safari there, I just automatically open firefox anyway.

But recently after being frustrated with its huge resource uses on my old laptop that could barely handle it, I decided to try out Google Chrome.

And I fell in love with it.

And now I am so conflicted! Chrome is so amazing and I love it so much, but I feel so terrible to abandon firefox like that. Right now I'm at a happy medium of using chrome on my laptop and firefox on my desktop, but I keep feeling the urge to install chrome on both. But I don't know what I would do without firefox either~

I feel like I'm in a terrible love affair. u______u

I've yet to try Chrome - I've been sucked in far enough by Google already, Gmail, Gtalk, the calendar, now I have a Google Voice beta invite and a #.... I fear what would happen if I went to Chrome.

Have they fixed the bugs with flash on chrome yet? It seemed like pages with flash took up a ton of resources with chrome last time I tried it and I believe most users had the same problem.

I'm honestly not sure because I can never tell still if it's just my crappy laptop, or the browser. ;p I'll have to try it on a different computer sometime to see.

I switched to Chrome ages ago, it's a lot faster and I love having my most visited websites tiled out on one page. Although admittedly Firefox has only started acting sluggish since I installed Chrome.. interesting.

i agree, Chrome has improved alot and i use it for quick browsing tasks.
but firefox has so many useful addons that chrome cant really replace it as my main browser yet.

if you want to try chrome without the phoning home to google stuff you might want to check out IRON:
http://www.srware.net/en/software_srware_iron_chrome_vs_iron.php

installer:
http://www.srware.net/downloads/srware_iron.exe

standalone:
http://www.srware.net/downloads/IronPortable.zip

its opensource, based on chromium sourcecode with additional features like adblocker etc.
theres also a linux version in their forums.

And I have no regrets.

I use both Firefox and Opera. Opera is fast and efficient, it never gets to the point where it's using all of my system resources, but there are some Firefox addons that I can't live without (eg Greasemonkey that I use for certain sites). So I chose both

Ever since I looked at the speed statistics, I never enjoyed FireFox again. No guilt leaving the relationship.

I'm completely in love with chrome. It's really awesome, didn't have the slightest regret while making the switch.
I still have FF installed though, it's always good to have a spare browser imo...

Unless you're using plugins, you should probably be using Chrome beta: http://www.google.com/landing/chrome/beta/

If you've got a bunch of FF plugins you love, stick with that. Otherwise, for me, Chrome is cleaner and a good bit faster. Also, http://www.chromeexperiments.com/ is kind of interesting. It shows you how well Chrome handles the new HTML5 stuff, as well as some other more common plugins.

Opera is the best. I have tryed them all, and FF is just horrible compared to the others. Chrome and FF just copy Opera.
