Chrome vs Firefox

Which web browser is better and WHY?

Firefox because of how you can customize it.

I use Firefox on my main desktop because I like to customize it, its also compatible with other software I use. I use Chrome on my laptop which I only use for work and forum surfing... its faster and more streamlined.

I really like both but for different reasons...

i use safari :) the new homepage sick

I hate that most visited sites page and how the bookmarks are handled in Chrome, so Firefox it is.

FireFox because of its great add-ons.

I use Chrome because of its speed.

I prefer Chromes setup, so im going to have to go with chrome.

I like Chrome because it's simple and easy to use. It also seems a bit faster than the other browsers.

Opera>Firefox>Chrome. Darth-Caedus

Chrome, by miles. It's simple in appearance, really well structured, and extremely fast. I could give two craps about customizing the appearance of my browser when i'm browsing at double the speed.

It's not just the appearance. It's the speed, add ons, open source content that makes it great, not just the skins. :P

Chrome FTW.....its so much faster

Way way faster + chrome runs each tap independantly so they are all their own process. So they can't communicate with eachother, and if one crashes it's just that one tab that crashes. Also people who say firefox is more customizable, that is true to an extent. Firefox is open source, guess what Chrome is. Well no it isn't, chromium is open source, Chrome is based on chromium. So you can edit the source code of chromium and become a lovely developer if you spot a bug or two and make your own plugin. Chrome has plugins btw. I use chromium on Linux just because of the daily builds. Chrome's daily build's are like 2-3 days.

Also people who say Opera is good, well no it isn't. For one singular reason. IT DOES NOT support the SOCKS protocal? You can't use it to tunnel traffic to a SSH server, I was shocked to see that.

Chrome is nice but Firefox is better because of the addons

So True. I'd take Internet Explorer before Chrome.

"Chrome is the best browser" :roll:

I prefer FF

I love chrome, fast, clean look, ease of use and I like the most visited page and bookmarking.

same here. I also don't need alot of customization.

FF. It has a few add-dons I rather not browse without and the speed difference with my FF is hardly noticeable. Though being so flimsy does obviously make chrome more lightweight to some.

I use Firefox because of the add-ons. On my rig at home I have a big screen so I like to use Split Tab which splits the window in two. So I can browse the forums while watching either BBC iPlayer or anime.

Tried all the various browsers, ended up preferring Google Chrome(noticable speed difference). Firefox is really good, tho. I´d recommend both. Opera aswell. (Especially Opera Mini works well, if surfingon cellphone)

Personal preferences really, they each have their strengths and weaknesses. Can´t go wrong with any of them.

Firefox, in the incompatability of chrome makes it a no no for me.
