I have been using Firefox for sometime, but it seems to be getting flakier and requires frequent restarts.
I am not running a crazy amount of extensions:
- AdBlockPlus
- ColorfulTabs
- Context Menus Plus
- Download Status Bar
- Flashblock
- HTTPS-Everywhere
- InFormEnter
- Link Alert
- PDF Download
- Power Twitter
- Tab Counter
- WOT
So, I am thinking to moving to something else.
Suggestions? What web browser do you use?

I’m still using Firefox as my principal browser and it’s flakier for me too. If I were starting from scratch I’d use Opera.
Chrome for normal browsing.
Firefox for web development.
Safari for crap.
Thanks guys. I have used chrome a little bit. It seem s pretty stable. I haven’t tried opera in years. I will give it a look.
My experience? The flakiness seems related to the computer I use it on. My 7 year old (ye, gads . . .) laptop forces me to treat it with kid gloves, but my Dad’s computers handle it just fine.
Opera handles it a bit better, but not by much. I’ve also had Safari and Chrome on there, but they don’t seem to allow the carrying of tabs between sessions; I carry tabs routinely, so I don’t have much experience with them.
I’m obviously biased, but I use IE9 on my Win7 machines, and IE10 on my Win8 machine.
Heh…I am still XP at work, but OS X at home.
I am trying out “Better Facebook”.
I use chrome now…
