Fucking idiot to reply to his posts. We should at all times ignore anything AKB says, because he's either not being serious or very ignorant.

Calling someone a fucking idiot because he doesn't share your opinion of what to do with non-serious and ignorant posters is very ignorant. IMO.

I used Opera back in the days.. it was max. You could do some no-images surfing.. best there was for 56kbps Internet =p
IE is and has always been crap.

Hosp · Post by **Hosp** » 2 Dec 2009, 21:25

Firefox is best, but if you make websites you have to try them in different webbrowsers. ( IMO is Firefox best )

Spotted Xiphias and yeah, Firefox ftw.

Still Firefox.

John · Post by **John** » 23 Jan 2010, 00:58

Very few ppl here, if any, has thoroughly tested all of those. So question is more like "What browser are you using?"... Firefox...

Ecchi · Post by **Ecchi** » 23 Jan 2010, 19:31

I have tried chrome, IE, opera and firefox, firefox beats em all by quite a big margin imo

Hosp · Post by **Hosp** » 23 Jan 2010, 22:31

Tried Opera, was quite nice, tried Safari, idk but not as good as Firefox, tried Chrome, sux, tried IE, sux the most of all browsers you can have, tried Firefox, pwns, tried some more but can't remember now.

Bismuth · Post by **Bismuth** » 23 Jan 2010, 23:15

have tried IE, Firefox, Netscape and Safari, a little bit of Opera, have seen Chrome, and Firefox kicks their asses. Netscape is the worst, Opera was very nab (but I think it was a beta version at the time? I don't remember the version), Safari is ~, IE is ok but Firefox is better, and I can't tell about Chrome.

Grace · Post by **Grace** » 24 Jan 2010, 09:00

Pfft, there's on competition here. Only 3 browsers stand a chance (Opera, Chrome and Firefox) simply because they work.

i use Chrome. Firefox is overrated and is slower than chrome to load a page.

Zweq · Post by **Zweq** » 24 Jan 2010, 11:55

have seen chrome not so not tried, i tried firefox, its ok, also seen it. i dont like ie because i didnt see it when i tried, so i didnt use it. i dont know what opera is so its pretty cool. hard to say about firefox bcuz i have seen it in action, pretty cool. netscape isnt bader than opera but i think firefox can beat ie, and chrome can beat opera also. so ie definatly not beat firefox, but so does safari. i dno safari mutch bcuz tmr i will beat warm up in 14.63

in the end i guess firefox beat all altho ie and safari and chrome and opera beat all also so its very hard disision

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 24 Jan 2010, 12:34

I still use Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari and Internet Explorer occasionally. Different computers with windows xp, vista, 7, mac, ubuntu installed. On Windows I prefer chrome, on ubuntu I used to use Opera a lot, while firefox sucks big time on ubuntu. I always had been a big opera fan, although opera has way too many features I personally don't use, like torrent client and mail client. Big pro of opera is the mouse keys; left right is forward and right left is backward. That's the only feature I miss in chrome.

And that my friends, is why I pick chrome as the best. Not because of the billions of advertisement monies they spent on it, but because I actually hate all these senseless features in the other browsers. On top of that chrome has a very good engine for loading pages.

That being said, I do not wish to imply chrome is perfect. The perfect browser, aswell as the perfect bugless computer, does not exist. The best alternative is the most carefree computer and browser.

Bludek · Post by **Bludek** » 24 Jan 2010, 12:51

I use Chrome, just coz its god damn fast. It also has simple and quite nice design (which can be ofc changed tho) and, like all other Google shitz, it's rly well-arranged.

To every useful feature chrome has, firefox has 100 badly coded, slow and useless feature. Firefox is for idiots.

ville_j · Post by **ville_j** » 24 Jan 2010, 14:37

Ok, I bet Firefox has many many features because of those extensions, but they are just useless for me. I use Opera and it has everything I need. Built-in mail client gives Opera +100 points. Using custom css-files for sites also gives Opera +100 points. Opera Link is also great, because I use Opera also on my mobile. 100000+ for Opera.

benson · Post by **benson** » 24 Jan 2010, 18:02

i am using firefox, mainly because of its extensions.
honestly firefox takes up quite a lot of RAM and also is not as fast as chrome to load a page, but the extensions simply rock.

and.. quite good that nobody votes for IE

Chris · Post by **Chris** » 24 Jan 2010, 20:17

For 99% of time I use Opera. Firefox is very good, but it uses much resources and it takes while to launch it. Chrome is madly fast, but there is too much google in it. On some MS websites I need IE, but I don't use it for anything else.

Bismuth · Post by **Bismuth** » 25 Jan 2010, 07:51

wasn't Opera version 0.6 or something in 2005? just asking

The first publically available Opera version (2.0) was released in 1996. In 2005 version 8.0 and later 8.5 was released.

Uninstalled Mozilla Firefox, installed Google Chrome. It has all the features I need and it's fast.

Ves · Post by **Ves** » 24 Sep 2010, 11:02

with proper user scripts all browsers (i.e. all listed programs except IE) are the same

what's nice in ff back button? i prefer opera's for not reloading visited pages and even keeping DOM modified with js.

Mozilla Firefox FTW.

NoZKeY · Post by **NoZKeY** » 9 Nov 2010, 06:46

Okay i feel the need to post here...

For some years i used Mozilla Firefox, as jon said it had kewl icon and later i found it also had lots of features (i mean, there were lots of add-ons).

Then i tried Opera and liked it.. but changed back to Firefox because i needed some add-ons to download files (specifically DownloadThemAll).

Now, this year i started using Opera again, and i don't know why didn't i do that before... it saves a lot of RAM and time. I has a rather simple design, and it is FAST, sometimes when i have a bad connection i notice a big difference between Opera and Firefox.

I still use Firefox to do certain things.. like downloading big/many files (using DownloadThemAll), or downloading a bunch of images from Danbooru (where i need lots of tabs opened, and it's easier to switch between tabs in Firefox).

In fact, the main reason why i miss Firefox is the ease to switch between tabs.

About IE.. i simply don't see any reason to use it.

Chrome, i haven't tried it.. but i guess it's too hyped lately.

FinMan · Post by **FinMan** » 9 Nov 2010, 15:04

hehe... I didnt try elma either but I think its overhyped by its community, lol.

FinMan.. i know your post was just for lulz.. but i know lots of people who can only say 'Chrome is the best' and when i ask them why they dont have a freaking idea... at least, 90% of ppl in the elma community have arguments to defend his game.

lost of people != everyone, of course

But anyway Firefox is even more hyped and overrated.

Ecchi · Post by **Ecchi** » 9 Nov 2010, 19:45

When it comes to speed, the only thing I've found faster than firefox is google chrome. But google chrome is so ugly and annoying to use that I'm willing to sacrifice the 5% faster pageloadage for a browser that is alot more awsum.

Talking about opera? *pukes*

Memory usage is not an issue for my anyway so don't even bother trying to tell me something is better based on that.

ville_j · Post by **ville_j** » 9 Nov 2010, 23:23

What is so *puking* about Opera?

Bludek · Post by **Bludek** » 9 Nov 2010, 23:47

I'm gonna defense Chrome. It's fast. Fucking fast (and faster with every update as google states). It's customizable. It has the biggest space for actual site. It has cool security functions (every panel in it's own "world"). And especially it has smart functions (coz its made by google geniouses), which I miss in both firefox and opera (like: smooth panel/window moving, smart 1st page, recently closed pages if you missclick, anonym window (good for pr0n and such) and few more, which I don't profit from, but someone can

). And after all its kinda nice looking. And its new. I like modern stuff.

gogo Chrome!

Opera has all these =)

Kopaka · Post by **Kopaka** » 10 Nov 2010, 11:23

and same does firefox (except 1st page if you mean the most visited fak, but it has that as a dropdown which you can access anytime)

also I found chrome to have much less options to customize it (long time since I used so might be different)

Firefox -> Opera

Also fuck Firefox, it started crashing randomly. I used Opera for a few days and then changed to Chrome.

Igge · Post by **Igge** » 5 Dec 2010, 03:39

Firefox has always been good to me. I simply assume everyone who has a problem with it is nab.

Which is the best browser?
