I dont think that is the case anymore. On ubuntu anyway flash just works when you install it, no fiddling.

Works pretty well in Gentoo, occasionally it hangs but I think that might be down to some of the extensions I'm using.

Fixed me font issues on opensuse!
I had to sent hinting to slight to make it comparable to win7 fonts.
a lot happier now.

Ah , I'm currently using Chromium. However I did try chrome on Debian and that seemed really nippy. ( or it could have been just me ^^; )

Excellent browser, however, if you're running fedora core with default security settings, make sure you configure your SELinux. It will complain about Chrome.

Chrome is fast but remember like all google products it spies on you in quite a few ways and reports back to them.
If you want a chrome browser without the spying get srware iron. It is chromium with the spyware parts of the code ripped out.
They haven't released binaries yet but they have the source code so you have to compile it yourself.

For what it's worth, I quite like, works nicely on my various fedora and RHEL installs and is a good alternative to firefox for me (which I've never liked on any platform to be honest...)
Well, for a start... it doesn't actually block the ads...
