Browser Wars 2016

[Claymantan]

Realtalk, I did a few searches for things like "browser" and "firefox" etc, and couldn't find a thread for this, so let's do it.

What browser you rockin' (desktop & mobile) and why? Why you ain't rockin' the other browsers?

I'm running Opera mini on mobile, and Opera on desktop. Fast, decent enough extensions ecosystem (got my video downloader, got my adblock), and saves data massively when you're data roaming. Fast and reliable cloud sync for tabs and bookmarks.

I was running Firefox until like, two days ago, when it started acting iffy when dealing with Flash/Shockwave. Plus, Firefox hogs resources like there's no tomorrow. Which is the main problem I have with Firefox.

Before that, I was using Maxthon, but it kind of runs into similar problems, and it's just weird when you're trying to use YouTube.

Chrome on both PC and mobile (extensions, themes and speed) the only but is the lack of flash support, whenever I visit sites that need flash player I use Firefox or Adblock browser (mobile), I have opera and ofc Microsoft edge (just cos why not)

Edit: you should put up some sort of poll, so we'll see what's NB's favourite browser (I'm pretty sure it's chrome tho), there's also a similar thread, probably in chatterbox or GD

I use chrome. I'm used to it and I like it more than firefox. Even for my phone, I use chrome and I have unlimited data so it doesn't matter about data usage for me lol.
