Chrome or Firefox?
 

Which should I switch too?

I am tired of IE's shit!

It's a personal preference thing that I also think is an acquired taste. I cant remember when I've last used IE as it does suck but I don't really like Chrome either. Firefox seems to be the preference for most and I too love it.

Chrome faster and easier :321GFY

Chrome if you don't want to customize the browser much. Firefox if you like tons of addon options etc.

what are some of the cool firefox addons?

chrome was not cracked in the pwn2own contest as best I know. It is a bit of a resource hog on OSX where it uses more ram and firefox seems to use more cpu. I am currently using chrome after using firefox for a long time and liking it a lot. I still keep firefox for sites that work better on it tho...

noscript.

The new FF 4 is pretty damn quick, starts up quicker than FF3 and also loads pages quicker.

Noobs. :2 cents:

I like the Firefox

I use both and I have different applications for each

chrome all the way tho

Ok. I have a good heart, so I will make an effort and I will repeat myself.

Chrome = Big Brother in your browser

Iron = Chrome - Big Brother

You can also build your own version without the Big Brother, it's not that hard.

FireFox has a lot of great addons but new version are slow and buggy from the other hand old ones do not support CSS3 and HTML5.


I also recommend to check SeaMonkey and Opera...

Chrome ftw

chrome :thumbsup

Chrome localhost, firefox through ssh tunnel.

Chrome. ftw.

ff ftw.,
chrome is still kid

Hehe Chrome = Big Brother and GFY = A Conspiracy Forum too.

You can shut the reporting back feature, that all major browsers have, then watch the connections to ensure they're off, and they are.

Oh yeah, I use Chrome almost always.... Only bitch about it, is it will crash and you will lose your profile/bookmarks, etc - and you'll have to lookup to see how to restore it, which can lose bookmarks/changes from the restore date. It has happened twice to me now.

I still use FF as well, but I load it up with all the plugins, so much of them it's bloated and slow but it has everything I need either way.

I use both but i like chrome.:winkwink:

Are you talking about this setting: Automatically send usage statistics and crash reports to Google ?

Yea, I know that everything can be switched off, that I can block unwanted connection with firewall etc but common! Chrome is ugly!

Also Iron is faster... http://animeblogz.com/wp-includes/im...unniezzz12.gif

Chrome doesn't phone home with any data if you shut the check boxes off, then turn Google History off and you're set. Outside of normal download/upgrade usage info, that they all collect - but you can beat that in Chrome as well.

Edit: Auto Suggest is another tracker, but you don't need Chrome for that.

You don't have to firewall anything with Chrome to stop it from phoning home.... and very few browsers are faster than Chrome, for sure one as feature rich.

Here is the list of Chrome features that stripped Chromium (Iron) doesn't have.

That's true about the speed, but it also depends on a browser config, default ones are very often overloaded with unnecessary stuff, a lot of can be tuned...

keeping 30(+) tabs go with firefox, but if you're into single tab browsing go with iron chrome.

browsing 30(+) tabs on chrome is a headache, tabs too small to select, most of the time i accidentally clicked the close tab.

I'm a huge Netscape fan.

:thumbsup I just updated tonight...

Get bigger monitors.... :thumbsup

The new version of FF is a lot faster than the old one. Starts up a lot quicker, pages load quicker. It's been pretty stable, I haven't noticed any issues at all.

I say Chrome, FF used to crash on me all the time especially when opening flash movies.

u should try new version of ff,

previously process requred to run flash movies was included in firefox thats why when movie craashes ff crashes., but in new versions., they have created separate process called plugin-container just for flash movies playing or some other plugins also.
so this way browser keeps working and just flash movies wont play.

I like Chrome

I like Opera :)

firefox all the way...

I use both, but prefer chrome...

Firefox..

SRware Iron ftw... But the new version of FF is also sweet.

Chrome 100%.

Chrome is spying on you (so Google knows your geographical location with precision of 10 meters). FireFox does the same, but it can be disabled in "about:config". Chrome does not allow you do disable it.

Go to http://maps.google.com/ and click "Show my location" icon there.
