Some of my faith in humanity has been restored, from the fact that Internet Explorer has not been mentioned Tongue

IMO Google chrome is currently the leading browser, it's easy, fast and quite "smoother" than other competitors even the good ones like Firefox. Most browsers now are close in quality (opera, firefox, safari or chrome)

If you want speed, waterfox is a pretty good browser:  https://www.waterfoxproject.org/

Just bare in mind that certain plugins - addons can slow down browsing

Chrome. It simply feels better and more responsive than others. Plus, separate processes.

I prefer Firefox because its performance is good (unlike IE), just about all web content is displayed correctly (unlike Safari), and it's basically the same across multiple OSs, which is important to me because I use Windows, OSX, and Linux on a regular basis.  It does seem like Firefox has gotten a little bloated and slower in the last year or two, but I still find it to be the most useful for my needs.

firefox, google chrome, other?

I have no script with firefox, but it is kind of annoying because even if you 'allow all' there seems to be a problem loading some websites such as spotify.com web player.

I also use Firefox with NoScript, but I've never noticed any issues with the plugin. Have you tried visiting the site after temporarily disabling NoScript and seeing if the problems remain? Perhaps it is due to other configurations you have on the browser.

try using a site like fiverr.com (sign up) or spotify.com (signup) .... its full functions does not work on firefox, but does on chrome.

They all are getting a copy of chrome, and Mozilla has been facing problems with performance, so I really doesn't matter.
I just install anyone that is not internet explorer when I need.

I don't think Firefox's performance is significantly different from Chrome's, at least as far as I've kept up to date. For example, here are the results of the latest "Web Browser Grand Prix" from Tom's Hardware http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/chrome-27-firefox-21-opera-next,3534-12.html.

I only have two browsers. Chrome and Tor.

So, Chrome and Firefox? (if that is the Tor Browser you're talking about) Tongue

I haven't found a reason to switch from Firefox. Tried Chrome for a bit, which seemed to run a bit slower.

Using chrome too and no problem so far other then the VGA spam.

VGA? I use chrome and get no kind of spam, especially with adblock installed.

Firefox. They have a good security and a good interface. Used to have chrome but the looks aren't that nice to me.

Last I checked, there wasn't much of a difference between both browser's interfaces (though that was a couple of updates back, I admit Smiley).

Still, I find it interesting that many users prefer something less secure and at best slightly faster in some areas, to a good all around browser like Firefox, which does keep its users privacy and security in mind.
