Why Chrome is inferior and always will be inferior

I tried Chrome, but got tired of pages failing to load due to shitty ads. Problem solved with FF.
 
As a pure browser? Yes.
It is faster, able to handle shitty plugins acting up (Flash, Java, I'm looking at you!), and just remains snappy and is just great to use. It's a beast, did I mention it was fast? Fast loading at initial startup, and websites load real quick-like.

Sure, Firefox is moving to place plugins as separate processes, so that if they crash, the browser does not. Ideally.

But what browser do I continue to use as my daily neffing tool? The one that I almost always end up having 50+ tabs opened within?
Firefox.

For plugins and neat tools from the development community, it's just pure win.

If I'm going to a site I just know tends to draw a ton of processing power, I'll open it in Chrome. At this point, having both Firefox and Chrome open all the time has been the norm.

If I want to watch a video, be it youtube, hulu, or any other flash video site, it gets opened in Chrome because it basically always has a slight stutter every few moments in Firefox.

And Firefox is a memory whore.

But I still :wub: Firefox. 🙂 It's everything that is available for it. I have so many modifications, plugins, and whatnot, it just feels right for almost every task.

BINGO!
