Been using Chrome because it has good extension support and it's lightweight. Some native Lion features like full screen are busted, but the dev team already stated they're committed to fixing it soon.

The biggest reason I don't use Safari is the lack of a built-in search feature for the address bar. I might switch back to it though after having installed this:
https://github.com/rs/SafariOmnibar

That's a very useful plugin that makes Safari's address bar behave more like Chrome's. It just came out about a week ago. The search box is also removed to save space. I think Apple should adopt a native omnibar. Until then, this provides a really good solution.


Wow. Thank you. It was driving me crazy. I always typed my searches in the address bar by mistake in Safari. I'll see how that extension works. But thanks!
 
I am using the latest Safari but it is full of bugs :(
Not just one, two or 10 but you can fill a notebook with the Safari bugs

Probably I will switch to Chrome
 
I switched to Chrome because it seems a little faster under Lion. Three-finger swiping goes back and forward.

But... the colored favicons are gone! How do I get them back in Chrome?
 
Chrome. You couldnt pay me to use Safari until they learn how to code a browser that doesn't devour all of my available memory and then move on to taking gigs of space on my HD.
 
Was a big Chrome user in Snow Leopard, but now sold on Safari. Love the new features and gestures. Just like the way it beds into the OS.

Safari with omnibar plugin. Its smooth, integrated, has a great download manager, fullscreen and, of course, the Reader view that excerpts main text from all the annoying adds!
