Which Browser are you using?

Chrome is taking over the world!

Y'all need to give SeaMonkey a look-see. Also has an email client built-in, very low memory usage and latest release was about a week ago. Many add-ins and better than Firefox IMHO by boat loads. Have not Chrome so can not compare it but I think most will enjoy Mozilla's SeaMonkey quite a bit. I have several instances running, most with at least four or more tabs open, and used memory according to Process Explorer is around 50 MB total for it and the email client all-in. Let me know if anyone finds it a good choice or am I out on a limb?

FF11 is out and has this cool feature. You can inspect the page in 3D and see the HTML, CSS and Javascript used in each element! Not sure how useful it is but it looks cool!

Properly clever stuff

I've been using Firefox and Chrome, both under Linux. Firefox is starting to seriously piss me off, updates every 30 seconds, leaving half the plugins incompatible, and taking a leaf out of Microsoft's book, 2 steps back for every step  forward.

 

Not impressed with Opera, anyone got ant suggestions ?

Just started using Google Canary, which is the 'early adopters' Chrome, and goddamn it's quick! Very impressive

I've been on the dev track since chrome was released...

Chrome on one of my machines has picked up malware which I just cannot get rid of. It's the very common one that redirects the homepage to the Yahoo search engine - minor but very annoying. The accepted route of deleting spigot files and whatnot aren't helping so it's Firefox for that laptop. Might have to give Canary a go.

I use 32Bit Chrome as 64Bit Chrome does (did not last time I looked) not work on Windows 10 - Is anyone using 64 Bit Chrome successfully?

Sure it's Malware, and not one of the very annoying plug-ins that does this as a feature and takes several bits of adjusting settings before installing an extension etc, else it's there and takes many times a s long to undo the damage?

I've been using 64 Bit Chrome on W10 until I've just moved to Canary.

Just installed Canary!

Yep, it's definitely a bug. A very common one too. Yahoo need shooting in the face for it.

I quite like it too. Can't use it as my main browser though, too many FF extensions are essential to a sane www experience these days.

Chrome: liked it when I tried it years ago and now have a google account, so any PC or tablet I use I can log on and get my settings.

I'm sure other browsers do that, but I can't be arsed setting up new accounts etc.

Chrome was using stacks of memory so I'm giving Opera a try having read that article. First impressions are good

Chrome, because we have 3 chromebooks i nthe house. Got tired of the antivirus dancing with Windoz quite some time back. 

One less hassle these days.

I'm using Brave , with DuckDuckGo for most searches as they minimize data collection / retention.

Brave's built on Chrome, so seems the same to use. I occasionally flip back to Google for a detailed search if DuckDuckGo doesn't return what I need.

Ghostery Dawn. Minimises tracking if I want it to.
