Isomerizer Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Myself, Google Chrome. For years I used FireFox, then tried out Chrome when it was released for Beta. Never turned back. What about everybody else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newttster Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Depends on what I am doing at the time ... I use Chrome, FF and IE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spirit Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Chrome, it never lets me down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegman991 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Chrome, because of how light weight it is, and how much support it has for html5 and css3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickson Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Firefox as primary, IE9+ as alternative when required. I have chrome installed, but I don't find it a single bit better than FF, I've tried it and ran some tests and well... it used to be better at memory usage than firefox, but that's long gone. Open up quite a few tabs and chrome uses a lot more nowadays. Faster? can't really notice it, so don't care. I've had opera a while too, just to test it, but I still like firefox the most!

a_bertrand Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Firefox is without doubts the browser I use, added back its menu, added a few plugin and removed the tabs and I'm happy. Sorry Chrome simply is not for me, and the rendering there is quiet some times odd. IE 9 is another one I use mainly for testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rulerofzu Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Ok so what addons would you recommend for FF I find FF it to be slower than chrome and uses significantly more ram. Until the recent addition of firebug for chrome then I would use chrome as my daily browser use and FF for debugging. Now I just use chrome.

The Spirit Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I have a poor internet connections and I find things load much quicker on chrome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegman991 Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Yes chrome and opera are very good with slow internet connections. As of firefox7 it now uses less resources than chrome. I am still going to stick with chrome though because it takes a while for firefox to fully end it's processes. Causing it to take longer to do other things like shut down computer. Plus chrome still supports more html5 and css3 than firefox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickson Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 You might have a point with shutting down the firefox process, I actually don't know because I never looked at that! Support towards html5 and css3 is kinda odd to rate on already, the standards aren't set yet, so who knows what will change and what not. I don't look at that yet, just because all stable websites, will not use html5 yet any way. Then again, I'm quite sure with the ridiculous fast release cycles of firefox and chrome, that it will be a major war as to who supports the most of what hasn't been decided on yet...

bluegman991 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Idk about html5. But I think final css3 standards are released a bit at a time. Because css attributes like "border-radius" and others at first it was like all browsers had their own syntax (-o-border-radius,-moz-border-radius,-webkit-border-radius). But then seemingly around the same time they all support the final "border-radius" attribute and drop support for their custom support.

HauntedDawg Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Since it's reborn. FF all the way. Get a Macbook Pro. Then test the speeds between Safari, FF, IE and Chrome. I have all browsers installed on my mac due to my job.. So i run.. IE 7, 8, 9 in virtual machine mode. IE 6 NO LONGER SUPPORTED BY MICROSOFT? YAY!!! FF 3.0 - 7 standalone's. FF 10 as my daily. Chrome for testing how my page's are viewed by chrome users. Safari for the same above reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I use a mixture of Chrome and Waterfox. Mainly due to Chrome having some interesting memory leaking issues at the best of times. Waterfox is a 64-bit varient of Firefox. http://waterfoxproject.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudinski Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Anyway... Chrome is my choice. It's the fastest, and the most powerful when it comes to Javascript. It's got a V8, haha. Mainly, yes the blazing fast Javascript engine. But also, WebKit. Something I can not afford to be without, ever. My backup is lynx though. Does everything I want it to.

Lilith Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Personally, I tend to use chrome a lot more than I should. I have however had issues lately with Hanging and Loading Issues that require me to purge my memory. Thankfully, MDshare's site had an answer for me.

Well, my workstation(Ubuntu 10.10 x64) was Firefox 10.x until today when I decided that it's just too damn slow. Also, Firefox keeps forgetting my pinned tabs so it's a hassle as well.
