I'm using a mixture of Browsers like many here:
Firefox on my Laptop mainly, even though I have Opera and Chrome installed. It still remains FF alone for the NoScript Add-on, which without, I wouldn't want to browse.
On my phone, I use Opera Mobile, for the sole reason that it was recommended to me, and that I really liked it after trying it out.
I dislike Chrome for the things that were in the EULA or TOS, (google owns all u do or what was it?) but that might have been changed already without me noticing.

The only advantage FF has over Chrome for me is RSS feeds on the bookmark toolbar.

Well I'm using IE only because I cannot use flashplayer on chrome or mozilla. Dont know why, googled it for a while and found nothing helpful.
So there's no reason for me anymore to use other than IE unless firefox starts working. + some sites does not work with firefox while every site should work with IE. For me IE is fastest (for sure), easiest (works and simple layout with options) and it's the default (so I need some kind of reason to DL another browser).
That is what I do and I dont care what others think about it.

Ya..it's not the fastest "for sure" http://lifehacker.com/5575407/browser-speed-tests-safari-5-firefox-36-and-opera-106-beta As for easiest..well that's your opinion. But you can use IE tabs in firefox. It's also not as secure due to activex and other such things. And saying you use it because it's the default browser installed, that's just ignorant. But you don't care about what others think..so I don't know why I bother trying to change your point of view. Anyways, I hope firefox or opera wins the browser war.

Using Chrome and since it took the best of Opera and FF I think it will be among the winners. Oh and I don't use Ad-block with it, so no reason for IE here.

Im using FF, because...well I guess im just too used to it.
|
Opera 10 for my PC. Opera Mobile for my phone. I would most likely use even more Opera if I had more stuff that would support Opera.
Just read maybe a week ago how revolutionary the new Google Chrome was and I downloaded it. Tried it a bit, downloaded even the Protoss -theme for it from here and tried using it a bit. Found out I didn't know how to use it and it felt clumsy so i gave up. Opera is here to stay, has been for many, many years now. Even then when there was that ad on top right if you hadn't bought Opera.

Google Chrome is my shit. I love it.

I don't like Google but Firefox blows, so I use Chrome.

Chrome is growing pretty fast, or maybe just popular among the SC2 crowd. January (pre-beta) numbers:
Firefox: 57.43% Internet Explorer: 17.29% Chrome: 14.68% Opera: 5.33% Safari: 4.56%
Chrome is growing in all demographics but internet-savy people (polite way of saying video game nerds) tend to pick up on these things faster. I don't see the big draw of chrome over Firefox but w/e, to each their own so long as it isn't IE.

Would anyone continue use google if other search engines were free? Charging to visit websites would need to be a massive act of collusion between pretty much every major website.

Chrome is superior imo. I love typing 1 letter for the whole site, yay!
|
Chrome hwaiting and all that.
But really, when I ran it the first time I was like "omg so clean and simple in every possible way" and fell in love with it the same day.
|
Opera all the way. Ive been using Opera for years now on my PC and haven't had any problems. Love the Speed Dial and they had it way before Chrome's weird most visited pages thing. Tried Chrome and FF, but ended up switching back to Opera.
Opera Mini for my Droid also

I switched from FF to Chrome for about a month or so, but switched back after I got some adaware automatically downloaded and installed through some exploit on chrome. I have never gotten any problems with security using FF, so this is currently my browser of choice.
|
So much love for chrome O.o
I find chrome annoying at times because it fails on lot of the streaming websites, and chrome does not have ability to activate certain website's script for some reason.
I really hope they get the new version of IE right on various things, because at least you can trust IE to work on every websites properly.
|
I use FF mostly because it has best compatibility with the sites I visit regularly. Another reason might be because I am too used to it.
|
After being spoiled by Adblock Plus and Noscript, I can't use anything else. Otherwise I'd try chrome because it seems pretty fast and slick.
|
FF + Addons
Chrome is sleek, but it doesn't have nearly as many "necessary" (to me) addons. I keep my gmail open in chrome, and use FF for everything else.
|
I honestly couldn't live without my firefox addons, they are the pylons for my gateways.
Hopefully IE and safari die a pitiful death, IE had its run, safari needs to just die, and the rest are all great in their own respects.
MFW Safari > Opera + Show Spoiler +
