Fed Up with Firefox...What Should I Switch To?
- Thread starter Drover
- Start date
Not a fan of how Opera handles a lot of things. Love it for the one time I needed a full-screen browser on Mac OS (FF & Safari can't do it... stupid shit), but it absolutely sucks when trying to use most Google web apps - just doesn't do things properly.
I'm also frustrated with Safari. Chrome is nice sometimes, but I stick with Firefox for the most part - had some freezing issues a while back, but created a new profile & things have been fixed since then. Try creating a new profile & readding your extensions - see if that helps.

I have no idea why so many of you are paranoid of Chrome. Google totally changed the entire way it communicates with its servers almost a year ago. If you're THAT paranoid, just use Chromium.
Both Chrome and Chromium have been looked over hardcare by thousands of coders... Chrome only talks to Google if you enable the option now (or send crash reports).
Paranoid bastards.

Good reason to be paranoid.

You're in an affiliate marketing forum where people cloak things 6 times over. I still don't trust Google.
I've been getting sick of the way FF does tables as it loads. It's constantly shifting the whole webpage as it loads often. This means if you just want to click on somehting really quick before the page is fully loaded you'll often end up clicking the wrong thing.
I hate that.
IE loads table sizes properly before loading graphics and other stuff. So things don't shift around all crazy. I've been thinking of switching to IE too.. but just lazy to make the change.

You just need to download the list and put it in your install directory.

Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get me. But, yeah, I'm pretty sure my definition of "not doing evil" differs from that of Larry & Sergey so I'll just continue to value my privacy, thanks.
Oh come on... Anyone who doesn't think every major search engine not only records your search data and IP, but also makes it available to the government, is insane.
Same thing with your phone conversations.
Anyone whose Firefox auto-updated to 3.5.5 and now tabs wont close, buttons don't work and firefox generally fucked up? Also running the switchproxy addon? Disable it.

Just a few days a go i finally got sick of FF freezing up, moving incrediby slow and hogging up the system. I've been using mostly Opera but i'm going to give that iron a go...
Yes, I know. That's why I now use search-hampster-in-a-wheel because search engines are way too powerful for their own good.
