I used to use Opera but I had issues with it simply not loading up certain websites. Instead it'd just load a blank white page. Chrome however very seldomly crashes on me.

I use google chrome because of the extensions and the fast loading with the browser. This browser also has Adobe Flash built-in which makes it run very fast on flash programs. This is also the first one that made up the HTML5 browsing, so the platform on that browser is very well developed.

The reason I use Firefox is because of the expandability, the capability of switching between a minimalistic browser or an all out every option in front of you type deal. I gave every browser a tryout of one month each and so far nothing has changed my mind (I like chrome somewhat because of the built-in features as well as Opera because of it's ability to make even slow connections a little faster due to compression (though image quality does suffer). Firefox has been pretty stable for me (even when I use Aurora). I've been a Firefox user since version 2 (and Firefox has come a real long way since then).

Check out how you can make firefox faster

Just make a backup of about:config in case you don't like the results and follow the steps 1, 2 ,3 and 5. (under make firefox faster)
There's also a firefox preloader to make it start fast like chrome (link)
I tried it and now firefox is as fast as chrome!
So give firefox a second chance? I would!

Screw all preloaders to heck, I'd much rather wait a little bit longer for any program to start up than have it waste memory that could otherwise be used for something else. That is the one reason I don't like Google's crap or Adobe Reader, for that matter. I am not one for speed, I like reliability, and having everything I need right in front of me, so that I don't have to click 10 different things just to bring up my history, bookmarks, etcetera.whooa21 wrote: There's also a firefox preloader to make it start fast like chrome (link)

First of all, it consumes only 30MB of memory, and you just click the normal firefox shortcut!Sonicsky wrote:Screw all preloaders to heck, I'd much rather wait a little bit longer for any program to start up than have it waste memory that could otherwise be used for something else.

After all it's your choice! If you do the other things suggested, it will load pages faster (without the preloader)

I don't know about how it is now, but for me, Firefox always had memory leak issues. Meaning the memory usage would go all the way up to 600mb (sometimes more) for no damn reason, without any plugins. o_o I'll take Chrome's memory usage kthx.
Also, Chrome having multiple processes of itself running actually ensures both reliability and speed. If one plugin crashes, the plugin crashes and not the entire browser. Same with individual tabs.
