I love Chrome, I like Firefox also but Chrome is just so much better in my experience
I like FF and Chrome. I mostly use Chrome, but I have nothing against FF. And in school, we have to use IE9, what is also completely fine.
Wow, I just switched to Firefox from chrome yesterday because I couldn't download Nvidia drivers with it. I like Firefox better IMO. Better addons/customization. But chrome was very sexy to me. So clean and simple.
[QUOTE=TehWhale;33524506]I think you got your browsers confused[/QUOTE] Nope, Chrome is hella slow. I don't know what's up that it's apparently faster for everyone else, but it just is.
[QUOTE=TehWhale;33524801]No, but you get used to it and it was designed to be more economical and easier to change tabs. You can just slam your mouse to the top and don't have to worry about hitting the address bar or anything like with Firefox[/QUOTE] Except I'm not a retarded ape so that isn't an issue to begin with. I've uninstalled it now, didn't like the general feel anyway.
[QUOTE=FreakySoup;33525128]Nope, Chrome is hella slow. I don't know what's up that it's apparently faster for everyone else, but it just is.[/QUOTE] Same. It's fast on my PC but slower than FF on my notebook.
I like chrome cause customization is annoying
[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;33525186]I like chrome cause customization is annoying[/QUOTE] I hope that's not the only reason
[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;33525186]I like chrome cause customization is annoying[/QUOTE] You could customize Chrome if you wanted, at the very least you could install a theme for it, plus the Chrome webstore has lots of other free changes

[QUOTE=CakeMaster7;33525272]You could customize Chrome if you wanted, at the very least you could install a theme for it, plus the Chrome webstore has lots of other free changes[/QUOTE] yeah but I just like the minimalistic style back, forward, refresh, and home buttons and bookmarks right underneath with a dark grey color scheme is how I do it also it's fast as fuck [i]for me[/i]
ITT chrome fanboys blindly defending their precious browser I never had any problems with FF, never had a reason to switch to Chrome. Everything works on FF and image copying doesn't result in them being darker than the original, which does happen in Chrome. Firefox starts up in about a second, while Chrome takes 5 to 10 seconds to start up. Might just be my PC, but I have no reason to switch to Chrome. I respect your opinions as long as they make sense.

I used to use Avant Browser for everyday browsing but now I have Chrome for testing hot new features (WebGL, ...)
[QUOTE=The Baconator;33524071]He's talking about those ads with the yellow tick on the buffering bar thing, and when the time reaches to it a text ad thing pops up in the video.[/QUOTE] I honestly have never seen this, ever. On Opera.
[QUOTE=Sumap;33522730]You'd be surprized how many IE users call IE "the Internet" [/QUOTE] My mom calls it "the blue e".
Maybe I'm wrong but I feel that a lot of the time when people say x is slow for me, it's just their imagination. They hear it's slow from someone else and when they try it they expect what that person said to be true. I can't tell a different between Chrome, Firefox, Opera or IE9 in terms of speed. They're all snappy. But again as I said, I could be wrong.
that's what you get for being slow as shit, firefox <3
the way I see it if you use plugins a lot, you want firefox if you want a simple browsing experience with no strings attached, you want chrome they both provide the two functionalities but each one has it's strengths and they're both good browsers
IE shouldn't be counted considering its default and most that use it dont know theres better things out there

lets stop arguing over two browsers that have no strengths and weaknesses over each other, theyre literally the same thing, they both have different layouts but any smart user- hell, any user who knows how to browse the web- could change one browser's default layout to the other and you'd hardly be able to tell the difference people will argue over literally nothing rofl. lets just all agree that safari, opera, and 'other' users are kidding themselves, and IE users are simply too dumb/lazy to convert to the chrome/firefox master race, or they don't know about the firefox/chrome master race yet
