Safari/Chrome help

[Peter Franks]

Coming from an unsupported Chrome browser for so long, as it wasn't quite as unsupported as Safari on 10.6.8, just wondered what you all use these days. Do the majority use Safari. I got so used to Chrome that after updating the OS this week, Safari feels so alien to me these days. I'd like to start getting used to it again as I gather it's more secure these days. But is there a list of must have extensions to make it more ad free and secure. Ad Block etc....? What do you people use mostly. Other than an Adblocker what else is a must for Safari these days?
Thanks for any help

FireFox, in my opinion the best most configurable and secure browser available.
I'd suggest you at least download it, play with it and judge for yourself.

Thanks. I do have an old Firefox on there, which I rarely used. I just found Chrome more user friendly. Is pinch and zoom in later versions?

Is pinch and zoom in later versions?

Can't really tell, every time I "pinch" my mouse, it just squeals...

How long will 'photoanalysis and Finder' CPU the hell out of the fan for?
4th day and counting.....
And is Safari lag with YouTube, and no preview gif the norm on Safari, out of interest?
