What's Your Browser?

Squilly · Jan 27, 2013, 07:19 PM

What is your primary Internet browser? I use Chrome on my Windows-based computers and Safari on my Mac. Might switch over to Chrome for my Mac soon. So.... what do you use?

Just switched over to Chrome on Mac and iPhone.

Darkhrse99 · Jan 27, 2013, 07:45 PM

I use Safari on my iPhone and Mac.

SandboxGeneral · Jan 27, 2013, 07:46 PM

My primary browser is Chrome for OS X, Windows and iOS. I also use Firefox sometimes as well.

Rodimus Prime · Jan 27, 2013, 07:48 PM

Chrome for my mac, windows PC, work PC, my Galaxy Tab and my Galaxy Nexus.

Pretty much chrome across the board.

In terms of browsers on my computers it goes Chrome, FF ,IE if on windows, anything else, and then safari. as you can tell I think safari is crap.

duneriderltr450 · Jan 27, 2013, 07:58 PM

Safari on iPad Mini. I haven't even touched my laptop since I bought it.

jwingfie · Jan 27, 2013, 08:05 PM

Safari on my Mac, Chrome on my iOS devices.

pimentoLoaf · Jan 27, 2013, 09:28 PM

Firefox on PC, Safari on Mac & iPad & iPhone.

mrkramer · Jan 27, 2013, 09:37 PM

Safari at the moment although I've been having some issues with it crashing lately so I might be switching to Chrome, but we'll see what happens.

LightningIceFox · Jan 27, 2013, 09:37 PM

Firefox Mostly, Chrome Occasionally

malman89 · Jan 27, 2013, 10:10 PM

Safari is just the worst. I can't remember the last time I opened it in OS X.

OS X: Firefox and then Chrome. I've just found Firefox to be more reliable with streaming (Netflix, Hulu, etc.) and is fine for everything else. Occasionally I'll even bust out Camino. Never Safari.

Win XP (Bootcamp): Chrome.

Win 7 (Work): IE 9, Firefox, and Chrome. IE 9 needed for some things (VPN and random logins, business banking), Firefox for the rest, Chrome for personal gmail and whatnot.

Chrome on my Macs, Chrome on my Galaxy Tab and Chrome on my iPhone

Jessica Lares · Jan 28, 2013, 01:40 AM

Safari on OS X and iOS, Chrome for the times that certain things don't work (which seems to only be one instance). And Chrome on my S2.

Safari on my own Mac Mini. Whatever is installed on other computers I use from time to time..... I'm not all that fussy. They seem to differ only in a the details. For general use the differences don't bother me much.

@ Squilly; May I suggest you set up a poll for this topic. The information would be more concisely presented and illustrated with a graph, which would be more useful than scrolling down the thread. Respondents can still leave a comment after they have voted.

Safari/FF/Chromium/Opera

each one has a use and I use them all all the time.

Dr McKay · Jan 28, 2013, 07:10 AM

Chrome accross all my devices, because it didn't care if I was on Windows, Android or iOS, everything stays synced.

eric/ · Jan 28, 2013, 07:39 AM

Safari on my mac devices, stuck using IE at work.

Mr-Kerrse · Jan 28, 2013, 07:42 AM

ucfgrad93 · Jan 28, 2013, 08:08 AM

iPusch · Feb 10, 2013, 02:05 PM

I always use Safari, cause it's just awesome on a Mac...

Fed · Feb 10, 2013, 02:19 PM

I tend to use Safari on Mac and iOS devices, then FireFox for everything else.

xchampx13 · Jan 29, 2013, 08:47 PM

Chrome or Firefox on OSX, on iOS usually Mercury

Signal-11 · Jan 29, 2013, 10:11 PM

Chrome across all of my devices (OSX, iOS, Win, Android) as my primary.

Then Firefox when something's broken in Chrome, IE when a site's IE only.

I'll use Safari once in a blue moon.
