				 | Up until the last Firefox update, I was pretty much 100% Firefox unless I was developing and testing in browsers.  But after the update, I've found myself using Chrome more and more every day.  FF has been freezing up and forget about trying to run anything Flash -- doesn't support it anymore.  The web developer tools and Firebug are what originally sold me on FF, but now working with Chrome and their developer's tools, FF doesn't have the upper hand anymore.  Honestly, it's just a matter of time before I toss out Firefox. It's gotten too bloated, freezes a lot, and taxes the shit out of my system while just browsing.

				Browsers
			 Safari makes IE almost good. Try as I might, I can't get Safari to open PDF files. I don't see much difference between Firefox or Chrome. But I use Firefox. When you open Chrome it shows the last few sites you visited. That can be embarrassing. |

				 | I'm trying to make the switch but it's a gradual process. I've been using Firefox for many years and it's hard to let go. Not sure if it happens to a lot of people, but for me it takes time. Got tired of FF crashing and fucking up. |

				 | Yes, some years ago (3? 4? 5?).  Really like Chrome, though it has a few quirks. |

				 | I've been using only Chrome for the past three or four years, no issues. I need a browser, not bells and whistles; I use one extension and that's it. I have FF and Chrome and I guess now "edge and I don't really have problems with them either, but then again, I have a pretty beefed up system.

				 | for me chrome is just more stable.  I still fire up FF to check how a site will look to ff users, but I use chrome.

				 | I think it is something os specific with Firefox. I have the same version (40) on two different Ubuntu systems and only one crashes ? Chrome is a Google hack -- I use it but not for certain security oriented business applications. Calling home to ET (i.e.; Google) bothers me. It is fine for credit card transactions or internet banking it is just when doing investigations of Google SEO practices I don't trust the Google Hack Browser  |

				 | I usually use chrome.  Still use Firefox though when I want to use some of their extensions.  When it is a site that has browser locking pop-ups, I use no-scripts.   Just got through using FF with tamperdata to do some checks on some of my SQL, I just added. |

				 | For once we agree on something   Google said chrome wouldn't collect any data but as soon as you log in any google site it logs you into chrome, and collects more data than the worst spyware around. time on site. bounce rates etc. People get paranoid about win10 because data could be used by the NSA as a webmaster I don't give a fuck about the NSA. I do care about these google pricks collecting data even within my members area when I don't remember giving them authorization. Why many still have a sympathetic view of this company and their products when they pull more crap than MS and Apple put together is beyond me. |

				 | I use both browsers quite a bit since I need to be logged into different accounts on the same site.  BUT...this last update did something to Firefox and as others said, it just goes unresponsive or crashes. ;-\ |

				 | The same here. I'm not a terrorist so I don't give a shit about NSA. But as a person who earns with SEO, I don't like when Google sticks its nose up to my business and literally spaying on on me.

				 | I tend to prefer the browser that is native to the OS.  So IE for Windows,  or Safari for Mac.  If you're building sites,  you really want to have all 4 of the most popular browsers handy to see how your site looks and works with each.
