Firefox mostly (I'm a recent switcher).
I used to use Camino. I still do now and then when I need to, but I've fallen in love with Firefox, so I'll have to say I won't be switching back unless Camino upgrades to something just as nice.
Safari sometimes as well, but I never really caught on to it. I much prefer alternatives. When I do, it's typically through my iPod.

I use Chrome, mainly FireFox, and IE. They all serve their purposes. I thought about getting Opera and Safari. I had both at one point, but it got to be an insane hassle.

Yeah, Camino seems to be seriously lagging behind in features at the moment. But, while the OS X version of Firefox was unbearable before, the newer versions are getting better.



I'm terrible with web browsers. I'm always switching from one to another. Probably as often as every month :P

At the moment, i'm using Firefox, but because i'm on a Mac - and the OS X version of Firefox is awful for some reason - it's always freezing and the UI is quite slow. It also uses obscene amounts of memory but I don't really care about that. But... I love my extensions - other browsers don't come close in terms of functionality. And the newer versions of FF are getting better.

I also use Opera, which is just plain awesome, but some websites refuse to work with it. Particularly Facebook's godawful new design (none of the text boxes work properly). Why these site owners can get something to work in Firefox and not in Opera is beyond me.

Safari mainly cos I am on my MacBook a lot now. Chrome on my PC normally. Then I use IE for Windows 7 RC and FireFox on my Mac & Windows 7 RC.

I recall that. :D I remember you switching around from Firefox, I think trying Camino, heading over to Opera. Did you ever try Safari in the mix?

Bleh, I meant to reply to this days ago, somehow got sidetracked, and forgot :$

Yes, I tried Safari a few times too, of course, in addition to Camino once :P

I'm trying to accept the fact that all web browsers suck in one way or another and you just have to find the one with the least downsides and use that.

(Yes, I am incredibly pessimistic :ph34r: )

I used to feel special because I used Firefox, but now everyone uses it. The magic went away. Anyone else get this from time to time? :(

Oh well. At least I'm using the dailies and not the last stable release. There's a little magic left in that. :p

Internet Explorer is by far my favourite. I love how all codes work with it and that there are no CSS conflicts.

Haha, I know what you mean. There's some strange satisfaction in using obscure stuff that other people don't know about.

Switch to Opera; it's awesome and you can feel 'special' because it has one of the lowest browser marketshares from what i've heard. And of course the nightlies have that awesome 'Minefield' name and icon so it looks obscure :P

Switch to Opera
Nah, doesn't look native. That's a big issue for me... gets distracting when all but one of my applications look the same. And I don't like to install proprietary software when I can help it. :p
