web What browser do you use?

[Wind Chaser 4,768]

I primarily use Google Chrome, but I'm using Firefox as I type this because Chrome has failed to start on me. Now you know my primary and my secondary.

I use Opera almost always, Google Chrome betrayed me and Firefox is too slow.

[boiteporte 591]

I use Google Chrome which is objectively speaking the fastest browser out of the one the OP talks about in this thread.

Now, there is the occasional memory leak which I believe is caused by Shockwave Player (To be confirmed).

 

So, when that happens, I switch to Microsoft Internet Explorer, not because it's good ( it is not) but because I don't want to install another browser on my computer.

Google Chrome! I have Internet Explorer as my backup.

[ShadowPirateX 600]

On my blasted iPad I use Safari (mainly because I don't have a choice).

But on my trusty laptop, I mainly use Internet Explorer. I shit you not.

[SPLinux 380]

Mostly Firefox, Chromium(Chrome without Proprietary additions) is my alternate when Firefox decides to act up.

[Azure Envy 1,092]

Firefox on my computer and phone.

 

Safari on my iPad.

Firefox. I don't trust google enough to use chrome, Safari isn't linux compatible and IE is both incompatible and... blech... Whoever designed the tabbing system in version 10 should be shot... but anyway, I've used Opera before, it's pretty nice to be honest. It's just that I use firefox more because of the setup I've got going.

Safari & Google Chrome, but mostly Safari.

I've honestly never understood the hate for Internet Explorer.

No, I'm not interested in hearing any "It's full of viruses!" or "It's sooo slow!" bullshit.

[ZooZLight 64]

Firefox as my first and sometimes Google Chrome as my secondary browser. Chrome seems to have lesser bugs but is sometimes stuck at startup.

[baba_booey 4,302]

I mainly use Chrome, although if something goes wrong on Chrome (i.e. ROBLOX site glitches, browser doesn't work properly, etc.) I'll use Firefox as a backup.

Microsoft made Internet Explorer popular by preinstalling it on every copy of Windows which is just unfair against every other browser developer.

[Tetris 115]

Opera for me. Google Chrome makes my computer slow.

But It's my secondary browser in case I cant do something on opera.

I don't like it because it doesn't keep up with the modern HTML language and it makes it much more difficult for web developers, like me, to increase advancements because not everyone will be able to experience the something as others to get the full range features.

Actually I use Palemoon, which is a firefox variant.  It is more streamlined and all around nicer/faster than default firefox.

Chrome is my main.

Firefox when I need to do something that doesn't agree with Chrome or I don't want to do from Chrome.

Both of the above apply to all my devices. Windows, OS X, Android, and iOS (except that FF isn't on that so just Chrome).

 

 

You couldn't pay me enough to use IE.

[otaku4242 183]

i use internet explorer.

 

google bought youtube and is assisting the nsa with spying on us, so I wont use them.

I hate macs, so I wont use opera

firefox is slow as fuck.

I use a Chrome variant called Torch.  It's basically the same thing as Chrome with some extra features.  But, in my opinion, ironically, I think Firefox is better.  I used to always use it, and still do as it is my secondary browser, but somehow I randomly switched for no reason.

In my own comparisons, I've found that Chrome is a little faster, and that Firefox is better in memory handling.  Firefox is also better for when you are going to have a zilliion different tabs open (hence the memory handling).  I've been known to go on YouTube and keep clicking related video one after another, all in a new tab.  Chrome has crashed on me with only 20 some YouTube tabs, but I've had 150 YouTube tabs open in Firefox (I was testing its limits and gave up because I couldn't get it to crash, lmao).  For everything simple and lesser memory using, I'll use Chrome (rather Torch), even having 20 different MLP Forums tabs open or more.  For more memory using browsing, Firefox.

It's like comparing a half-ton pickup with its biggest gas engine available to a 3/4 ton pickup with the biggest diesel engine available.  Neither one is slow, though the half-ton is faster; but the 3/4 ton will tow more --> half-ton = Chrome ... 3/4 ton = Firefox.

Wow, now I really feel like a hick.

Google Chrome!!

My mom likes to delete Google Chrome off the computer and have Firefox as the only browser hahaha...

[Zygen 6,066]

I mainly use Chrome in most cases, due to it being fast.

 

If I have something that Chrome just doesn't want to work with, then I have Firefox as a backup.

 

Typically I just use Chrome though.

Well, it is almost always slower than other browsers.

It lacks customization, often displays web pages incorrectly, has many many spam toolbars, etc.

It simply doesn't do the job nearly as well as other browsers like Chrome or Firefox.

Opera isn't Mac/Apple related, that's Safari. 

[Lightning-flickr 214]

I use chrome and not... Well, errm.. 

[crisahys 149]

Chrome is my absolute favorite since I needed the favorites on the toolbar to get around.
