Unless you can directly upload your consciousness into the internet, you're probably going to be viewing this on an internet web browser. But the question is, with so many on offer, which do you go for?

Chrome? Firefox? Safari? Or do you go against the grain and opt for Internet Explorer (which still exists, apparently).

Make your choices!

Firefox yeah, been using it for twelve years at this point and I'm too much of an old fart to learn anything new

I've used Opera for about 7 years now and haven't had any problems. There was a period there when a bunch of webpages didn't work right with it but I haven't encountered that in a while. I like the speed dial (as far as I know every browser uses one of these now though) and the mouse commands.

I used Firefox for a long time, but then I came up against issues with it crashing any time I closed a tab that was still in the process of loading. So I switched to Chrome. That was working fine, and now I am coming up against issues with that freezing when opening new tabs.

I think I just need to retire from the internet at this stage.

I recently dropped Firefox because of their complete lack of multicore utilization. Using Chrome now. Much faster, more stable, and less hiccuppy when having a lot of tabs with complex websites open.

I remember using Firefox for a few years. Then I switched to Chrome and never looked back.

I used to use Firefox, then went to Chrome and I found it started bugging out on me, so I went back to Firefox.

I think what browser you use says a lot about you. You're either a cool FOX OF FIRE. Or you're not.

Firefox at home, Chrome at work.

Chrome at home with a mix of Chrome and Internet Explorer for work. I used to use Firefox all the time, but I don't remember why I stopped. There was a small period there where I used Waterfox to be hip and cool and whatever.

I just use Firefox. I used Chrome for awhile, but then something annoyed me about it. Firefox can be annoying too. I'm just happy my parents stopped using IE altogether. There are still people at my work that don't understand that you don't have to use IE to use the web.

I used Firefox for 12 years, but switched to Chrome last week. I don't like chrome, but the constant script crashing from Firefox finally became too much.

Chrome, baby! :cool:
Although Firefox is also my favorite. :hattip:

Try waterfox, it's based on the firefox architecture, but runs at 64bit.

Try waterfox, it's based on the firefox architecture, but runs at 64bit.

64 bit native Firefox is also available and it's fast. Especially if you implement the experimental electrolysis process, which is off by default but can be turned on in about:config. Makes it so each tab is its own process (like Chrome). It's fast fast fast.
