As a developer, Firefox just makes your life so easy. This is the only reason I don't use Chrome. Otherwise, I would.
Oh no

I'm not really sure about google. They seem a little too commercial in a wewanttoconquertheworld kind of way. They've got really good stuff, though.

I had firefox for a while, but like others the amount of resources it takes up was too much for me. Now it's opera all the way and I haven't looked back yet

Firefox is not my preferred browser, but I can't live without adblock, so I am stuck with it

So can those who freshly fell in love with chrome explain what they like better about it than firefox?
I just started it, it looks a bit stylisher but... don't get whats so great about it yet.

i never switched to chrome and i was happy at that
how can you have something for years then easily ditch it for some blown out of proportion commercialized browser that had no history?
without the addons chrome is absolutely useless anyways, and when firefox 3.5 came out it sealed the deal for me
tracemonkey is a new java engine that made firefox 3-4 times faster then before
and all the people talking about memory usage LOL
heres some tests

memory usage

@food: to me, I've been using Firefox all my life, but it really started getting buggier, which annoyed me. Everytime I watch a YouTube video, it stutters like every 10-20 seconds which irritates me. Also, websites load not as fast as Chrome :p My personal preference though.

Opera is a beast of a browser, and it's the only one I can tolerate anymore.

My story is the same.
A few years ago, I was actually converting people to Firefox, spreading the word etc.

But since I tried Chrome, there's no need to run any other browser for regular day-to-day browsing.

You see all your important pages whenever you open the browser.
Searching, and finding sites from the history is much easier.

The browser itself occupies less space on the screen, so you watch more of the website, less of the browser.

It's just better than any other browser.

There are still a few things they might improve, so it can only get better.

you can customize firefox so easily though
have you tried latest version? the only browser that could be faster is chrome and even then it depends what pages you are loading. Its literally faster by milliseconds lol
after tweaking firefox you can improve its performance by A LOT. check out this link, small example( you can do so much more too)

Chrome runs better for me as well. Part of that is probably all my live bookmarks and addons on Firefox. But ultimately I made Chrome my default because it runs faster and smoother for me.

There's two issues with Chrome that bug me:
1. There's no popup or warning when you close multiple tabs. It's REALLY annoying accidentally closing 10 tabs from a misclick. There's some other methods to help prevent this like loading previously closed tabs and stuff, but I'd rather have the popup prevent it. My internet isn't terribly fast so it's especially annoying if you were buffering a long youtube or gomtv vid.

2. Flash video screws up on it sometimes. If you use a lot of Youtube on Chrome, you know what I'm talking about. The video loads up completely black. You don't get a Pause/Play option or the progress bar. The whole bottom area is black. This never happens on Firefox or even IE so I'm not sure what's causing it. Refreshing several times will usually fix it, but a few times I got annoyed and just opened it up in another browser.

I might give the new Firefox a try sometime and just delete all my Live bookmarks to see if that fixes the lag issues.
Process is more important than the result

yea just to be fair try install FF anew, no bookmarks/history/apps. Follow some guides on improving its speed, will definitely not fail you

edit: yea some people love opera some just dont get it, im the one that doesnt ~_~

I like Chrome. A lot. But until it can do everything I can do with Firefox I won't switch to it. I just spent 2 weeks exclusively on it and couldn't switch over, Firefox is just better for the time being.

As for Opera, psh forget that it has as far to go as Chrome does.

I thought chrome keeps a log of the websites and stuff that you go to. Google has enough of my search information, thanks =/

LOL indeed


Don't recognize the names? Time to reread 1984! Google says its credo is "do no evil" - burrow down 5-6 levels of its privacy statements AND those of ad company DoubleClick, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and you'll see a company dedicated to tracking your every move and selling that info to advertisers,etc. GB makes it even easier for Google to collect "impersonnal" info, which apparently means everything but your *name* and DClick doesn't even protect that! Read the news at eff.org,protect yrself best you can w/Firefox, ask for new laws but do not use this product.
