Google Chrome vs Mozilla Firefox

[veron]

Chrome works a lot faster for me than Firefox, but I hate it. I might just be stupid, but how the hell do I access my bookmarks? As it is, I have to click the tool button on the top right, and then open the bookmark manager, and then find the bookmark. Can't I just open a bookmark without opening a new tab first (a la Firefox)?

I have both Chrome and Firefox and my laptop but i tend to use Firefox for the most part. It has so many great apps and i like the way you can customize it with personas etc.

I love FireFox because of all the add-ons you can easily get for it plus I'm really quite familiar with the UI now since I've used it for such a long time.

My only gripe with it is that it has some serious memory problems, leave it up for a couple hours and you find yourself running up 1gb+ of memory which has a noticable impact on performance. It's something I can live with though, it's easy for me to just save tabs, close, and then reopen it but I can understand where that mightn't be a preferable option for people.

Where Chrome is involved, if the interface is the same as earlier I don't want to touch it, the minimalist feel to it is just, well, too minimalistic.

IE... I hope I'm not being too judgemental here but seeing how they're "apparently" perpetually - I hope I'm not jumping the gun here - trailing behind on the latest web developments I reckon the world would be better off on web designers if they just tossed it out the window. Oh wait, you didn't even include IE

I was using Chrome till Google decided to add an "Apps" page and "most visited sites" along with other features that they do not let you disable.

Back on Firefox.

I like both. In fact I use Chrome, Firefox and Opera quite often as some sites work better in one than in another. Firefox is my main browser though so I guess that gets my vote, mainly down to the extensive extension library and features. Chrome is perhaps faster and more stable, though Firefox has improved a lot lately...it used to crash all the time.

I use Firefox, but it's all customized with addons and buttons were i want them. I can't use the default Firefox, I'd prefer Chrome if it had to be default.

Chrome FTW... Performance on chrome is much much better than firefox in my opinion. Its not cluttered. they left out most of the stuff that firefox and IE has which makes it faster. I think the customization on chrome is much cooler like Themes, all the themes are free. You click a theme then everywhere round the adress bar is customized(Like firefox) but with chrome when you click new tab you see a full screen of your theme

google chrome. plus i can play angry birds on it

Safari is my main browser, but between Firefox and Chrome I use chrome more because it performs more efficiently without the clutter. After I exclusively browsed with Firefox, I noticed that I didn't use most of the add-ons I downloaded.

Chrome is sooooo much better. It's much faster, it doesn't crash every 5 seconds, and it doesn't keep bugging me about updates every time I use it.

[GunnyHighway]

I've always used Firefox. I gave Chrome a shot, but I've just always used FF so I stuck with it. I know where everything is, I know how to change the things I want to, etc.

I feel sorry for those who have to deal with browsers having a noticeable speed difference, all my computers seem to run them about the same speed. (I know, I'm not the norm) I wish I knew what the hell you guys are doing to make it crash so often. I run Firefox on this computer for WEEKS without closing it, and the biggest problem I have is with Flash Player and Foxit hanging. Good thing I can kill the plugin containers with task manager and have them work again for a long time after restarting.

internet explorer!!! im kidding

[Blawnka]

Firefox.

[Marakunda]

Firefox has persona's, therefore....
Firefox = better

Chrome is a pain in the a** to me.

[Kuhle]

I prefer Chrome. It runs a lot faster on my laptop than Firefox and gives me less issues.

I used to use Firefox, but after giving Chrome a chance (and by chance I mean not using it for two minutes and then deciding I didn't like it like I did the first time), I greatly preferred it. There are a couple of things I like more on Firefox, but they're worth giving up for Chrome.

same, although it took a while to get used to the new layout.. i like how chrome has gpu acceleration of web pages and is just generally so fast

[achelle92]

I use both, but Chrome seems faster to me.

[DubnRun]

Personally I use both, when chrome crashes or has issue I use Firefox.. also I use Firefox for some page that simply don't work on chrome.. like Dubstep.FM XML Podcast list

[DubnRun]

Opera is where its at guys
