Since I disable all plugins (a great feature of Chrome) I never have problems with flash intensive sites. The feature is especially good as you can then manually select which flash or silverlight elements to load by clicking on them. Thus on sites which have multiple videos when you only want to view one it significantly improves the page load speed.
Just tried disabling all of my addons on chrome and the page does load much faster, however, I need my addons so this isn't an option, which I can't even consider
This is wrong. Chrome does remember your position on a page when you close the browser and re-open it. I just tested it in the latest stable version of Chrome.
Just tried it myself there, opened a tab, scrolled half way down, pinned it and restarted chrome, brought me back to the very top again. Is there a setting for this or something?
User styles look rubbish on all browsers.
Not true, I use the ocuk dark style, a gametrailers style amongst a few others and they look better on firefox, not as much of a difference as it use to be. Plus for IMDB, the dark theme, on chrome the right side boxes aren't even themed, they remain white where as on firefox they are dark grey
Can't say I've noticed myself but I'll concede this one.
Tried this with all addons disabled and again it was better but not as good as firefox and once again, not an option for me to disable addons
The other major advantage of Chrome is the easy syncing of bookmarks, settings and plugins. I never have to manually install a plugin or change the configuration of Chrome when I use a new computer as these are all automatically synced when I login. Until Firefox has something like this I will never use it as a primary browser.
I never use this feature, but I am pretty sure firefox has a sync feature for history, bookmarks, addons as well
Oh and even better Chrome allows you to specify your own encryption key for the synced data so you can be sure your data is reasonably safe (not that it really matters that much to me).
True, never use it either though, so not a deciding factor for me
If you use Adblock Plus on Chrome you get the same behaviour as Firefox for ad blocking and space removal.
Yup I use adblock plus beta on chrome. One site in particular it happens is neowin
As mrk said I would love to use chrome as my main browser too, but due to the above, I just can't. Although I do kind of prefer my firefox UI and the rectangle tabs instead.
Also on a SSD and chrome starts up instantly but firefox takes like a second (although I do keep at least 3 tabs pinned for it)
