I used to use firefox, but I never really used any addons. I use Chrome all the time now, I like the uncluttered interface and I don't really care about having addons. I haven't noticed any speed increase other than the startup speed, and even then it's very close.
[QUOTE=Panda X;17240403]Sites: Facepunch AeroXP WithinWindows Neowin GeekSmack VSB Forums BetaArchive They didn't crash, they simply gave me an error over half the time I tried to load it. I don't know if that particular build of Chrome 4 used a bad revision of WebKit or what, I just couldn't take it.[/QUOTE] What error is this? Sometimes I get random connection issue error, but refreshing fixes it instantly. I think it has something to do with chrome being less lenient with bad connections or something.
I'm on mac and chrome still sucks on mac, so FireFox is king, although Opera 10 is pretty damn nippy too.
Using Chrome and loving it. Firefox just seems slower to me. Although, i have to revert to IE when some website applications aren't compatible with Chrome.
Desktop I use Firefox and I also use Firefox on my netbook but I'd want to use Chrome on it for the netbook-feeling, but it's just.. wierd on the netbook.
I use Firefox with tons of addons on my laptop, but for running off of a flash drive Chromium wins.
I've been using Chrome for a few months now, and I'm in love with it. Having switched from Firefox everything is a lot faster. My only problem is flash like to crash a lot.
I use Opera as my main browser, and Firefox if there is anything I can't open with it. Chrome is good but I don't like it that much, It's fast but it misses some features the other two have ''for now'' I'm sure they are gonna add some features to it when it's out of it's beta.
Ever since I started using chrome I never looked back.
I was using Firefox and Opera before..and when Chrome came out, I switched and never looked back. Well besides using Firefox as my backup browser because I refuse to use IE to browse the internet.
[QUOTE=compwhizii;17251302]Ever since I started using chrome I never looked back.[/QUOTE] Sounds like a neck problem. :D But I agree. Chrome hasn't let me down and the future of Chrome looks awesome.
I Prefer Firefox, due to Adblock Plus and DownThemAll, that and besides Opera, It's pretty much the only choice on Linux.
i fucking hate java script, it does nothing for me but make me install things
I used Chrome for about a month. It was really fast loading sites. When it would load them. I constantly got the "oh, this link is broken" error. I went back to Firefox, and while it doesn't seem as fast, it actually loads sites.

Chrome for me had some issues loading images on facepunch (only a few) at times. But that wasn't why I went back to Firefox however. Like many other people, I went back because of addons. Plus I like this dark theme I got for my firefox :smug:
I need Net Usage Item and Noscript, if Chrome had them then I'd use it but these are the only two keeping me from making a change for the better. :(
I use FF 3.6a2 with Ubiquity and ChatZilla. Might use Chrome in the future, but right now it just feels kinda limited in its extensibility.
I would use Chrome if the tabs were moved out of the titlebar. That is such a horrible UI decision. I'd expect something like that from Apple, but not Google.
[QUOTE=Dr Egg;17336944]I would use Chrome if the tabs were moved out of the titlebar. That is such a horrible UI decision.

It takes some getting used to, but it saves a lot of screen real estate and better reflects that the tabs are separate processes and can be dragged out of the window. It's not a horrible UI decision at all.

Tabs on top I love. Tabs in titlebar = no.
I love chrome. I use it all the time.
I don't like the look and feel from Chrome. But i like Safari and firefox. :3
i might use chromium if these things happened: 1: moved tabs under URL bar 2: addons 3: lots of addons
Firefox allows you to clear all history, cache, everything after ending the session, so it's the same as incognito. I really enjoy the addons of Firefox, so that's why I use it.
Chrome may be faster, but I still prefer the layout and the conventions of firefox.

o look buthurt chrome user rating more people dumb
I worship google chrome. Google chrome is soooo light, even in my old ass 5 year old computer I had to borrow used only 45% with 6 tabs open + video. And it loads up SO fast. Firefox is decent, but it took 95% with only 2 tabs. Not hating on Firefox, but google chrome is enough for me. It's everything I want in a browser. Quick to use, light, simple, and awesome. oh i bet bananasgomoo is rating himself/everyone dumb so he can say those shit. lol fanboy
