Browser?

  • ernest_t_bass
    What browser do you use? I currently use Safari 5.1, but I'm getting tired of it. The current version that I'm on, coupled with OSX Lion, sucks in my opinion. Thinking of switching to either Crome or Firefox. What browser do you use?

    I'm back to Firefox (5.0.1). Chrome is now my 2nd choice.

    Chrome and I doubt I'll ever go back to anything else.

    Was with chrome. But then the new version of Firefox came out. Sorry Google but maybe you should just stick to search engines.

    My issue with Chrome, and I'm sure its a setting that you can turn off, is when I set a new tab it lags and takes forever because its setting up your top websites. I just want a fresh page, found that annoying so I stopped using it.

    Anyone use Camino on a Mac?

    It was hyped for a while as being the best browser for OSX.

    I've never had that lag, but Chrome doesn't load up anything other than a simple link for my most visited sites and whatever chrome apps I have installed. When I hit cmd+t to open a new tab it's open and ready to go in less than half a second.

    I tried it a long time ago but dropped it for some reason. I think I didn't like the interface but I can't remember.

    Yeah same here. It worked great, fast as hell and then crashed a few times for no reason. After that I got Chrome and stayed with it.

    Dammit, I forgot that option in the poll. Fail.

    Have been using both Firefox and Chrome today to see which I like better. Not sure yet. One thing that I was getting used to in Safari (and loved it) was the two finger swipe to go back to your previous page. They do not have that in either Firefox or Chrome... unless it is in preferences. Haven't gotten that far yet.

    Three fingers for chrome.

    With OSX Lion, three finger swipe takes you to your dashboard.

    Have the setting turned off on (OSX LION) preferences, how do you set it up on Chrome?

    Firefox is my main browser...I've been using Chrome recently but I've found a few annoying quirks that may result in me going back to Firefox.

    Biggest gripe for me is the adblocker on Chrome is inferior than that on Firefox.
