Just out of interest why do you guys use Firefox over Chrome?
Well I use waterfox instead as it is snappier/faster then firefox and it is 64 bit.
But main reasons:
- pure customization for everything
- much faster for loading image intensive pages than chrome
- better rendering of web pages, renders them completely instead of chromes method, which appears to render whilst loading, so some parts here and there
- super smooth scrolling especially for image intensive pages e.g. the high res screenshot thread
- remembers where I left off on tabs that have been pinned, so no need to scroll again looking for the last post I read
- keeps my gmail account opened even after closing the browser when pinned, so no need to log in and also get a small notification of new emails, via changing the colour of the pinned tab
- user styles for websites work properly and when you load the web page it doesn't load the original style first
- for me memory usage is better than chrome unless both browsers only have 1 tab opened each
Only area where chrome is better for me/IMO is that the UI is smoother overall and it looks prettier in some parts e.g. the settings menu etc. Water/fire fox is just as fast for starting up now, even though I have many more addons etc. installed than chrome.
And some other stuff.
