I like both the same. Chrome is my daily driver, but I use firefox for web development and stuff that needs to be secure.

chrome because da extensions and it's much cleaner. Firefox looks like IE 2

Lmao, IE2. Reminds me of the first web browser I used. IE5. God the 90s.

chrome was initially supposed to be fast and easy, and that were its only benefits. But since the latest updates it has gotten much slower, and there is really no reason to use it anymore other than a backup solution if some plug-in doesnt work with firefox. IMHO

 

I currently and pretty much always have used firefox. More secure, fast, easy to customize and supported by most websites.

 

Design is subjective, but with all the skins for firefox, you can make it look very much like chrome if you would want to.

Firefox runs better on my PC and I am able to have so many tabs at once it's crazy. Unfortunately I just have never gotten good performance out of any version or update of Chrome.

I go between both Firefox and Chrome a lot due to the extensions available. I can't stand Chrome's download bar.

I use chrome canary as my main browser, but since it gets updated daily, every once in a while an update ruins something in it so I use normal chrome as back up

Firefox, we need more people that use the gecko engine. We don't want a webkit standard. Also opera sucks ever since they joined the webkit bandwagon.

And chrome is useless to me, id rather use IE 11.

I use Firefox because it just works. I don't care how it looks. Sadly Chrome is the new fad. I don't get how it got popular so fast in the last year.

TBH is find chrome to be ugly, no customization like firefox. Also Australis looks good to me on firefox.

I prefer Chrome, it has a lighter feel to it, but I do have Firefox installed and often alternate.

Firefox

•I think that chrome feels too "Google", if that makes any sense.

•Also for some reason, I think that the square tabs look better. Not sure why, but I do.

•Also I prefer the new tab page with links, but I think that you can probably change that in chrome.
