Well, that and Firefox sucks coupled with their constant “major release every Tuesday” cycle breaking plug-ins (the best feature of Firefox in the first place).
It’s been my primary browser for years but for a while now I’ve found it so unstable that I’m having to move to Chrome.
The change in update frequency wasn’t a good move and could not have helped. They are about as bad as Adobe in that department. Looks like we are somewhere in the 30s for version number these days.
The last Mac I had was a model LC475, when AOL kept ‘new versioning’ every two months, until I couldn’t afford to put any more RAM in the machine.
I stopped using IE at version 6.
I’ve been a Firefox user for a long time, and have used ‘adblock’ add-ons, UNTIL, the ‘adblock’ program started blocking my Live365 Internet radio homepage!
I have never liked Google anything, since their inception, years ago.
But, Safari? really?
I found Chrome to be so unstable and constantly hanging (after a year of running very smoothly) that I had to go back to Firefox; now the machine runs great. Weird.
I stopped using it since they fired their CEO for donating money to stop the gay agenda. I normally want more competition, but what’s the point if they are as fascist as Google and the rest of them?
I have been using FF for a good number of years. The CEO fiasco caused me to look at others including Chrome (ugh, Google) but I am using Iceweasel (Debian’s version) on my primary computer.
Me too. Why support anti-Christian thugs at Mozilla?
Please Note the that Apple browser is a tiny fraction of the Native Windows browser. It is so sad that .edu fawns over the lackluster and overpriced Apple product line.
Pale Moon works for me, and they have not fired their CEO for thoughtcrime.
“Waterfox is a high performance browser based on the Mozilla platform. Made specifically for 64-Bit systems, Waterfox has one thing in mind: speed.”

Piss off Conservatives and they pull their support.
Seconded. I switched to Pale Moon after Firefox, that liberal bastion of individual thought and individual ideas, forced their CEO out for actually having individual thought.
It runs all the plugins I use and it doesn’t get updated every other day!
I like Firefox, but when they fired the CEO because of the lavender mafia, I quit using it. I ended up switching to an old favorite, Opera. I will not ever use Google anything, I value whatever illusion of privacy I have left and chrome data mines hard.
I use Opera now, but I always seem to have some problems when I go to Youtube.
Too many freezes, crashes, and security problems caused by buggy plug-ins.
firefox is the ‘big fag’ of the browser game
just ask Brendan Eich
may they go the way of jcpenny
