With quite a few browsers out now, each with its own unique look and features, how is a user to decide which one to use?

Which one do YOU use and why?

Is one better than another?

Debate!

Firefox. Why? 'cause it isn't bulked down with unnecessary features like Flock, it's rip off. (Well, they literally use the Fx engine...) It also is not slow, like IE and Safari (for windows). It is highly customizable with extensions, more so than Opera. Not to mention most sites are compatible with Fx, unlike most with Opera. So yeah, that's why. :P

My IE runs fast. I honestly can't be bothered to change.

I like FF but IE is a good back up. I hate opera and Google's isn't too bad either

Firefox. I love my plugins and the awesome skin's Josh showed me a couple months ago :P

However, FF is kind of bulky (and it takes a while to start) on a Mac, so I've been using safari for all my putzin' around. But you still can't beat FF.

I run on IE with FF as a back up. I find they both run at the same speed but use IE more often because I'm more familular with it. o.o I use Safari at school and that's kinda annoying 'cause Safari screws over most of my skins. =/

FF with the add-on to view pages in an IE tab if necessary.

IE blows.

FF. Faster, looks better, and IE freezes up on me tooooooooo much.

Opera works with the top end of web standards - if some websites don't follow them - that's their fault innit?

:P

Opera works like a dream - the fastest, its got all the extra functions I'd use, and I <3 speed-dialing [which was ripped into a FX extension]. FFX takes a gazillion years to start with all the extensions running. I can yawn ten times in that time. :P Not to mention the heavy memory imprint. IE should really take some salsa classes = 3 left feet. Safari = zomg too boring.

I only emigrated to firefox when version 3 came out. Before, I used IE; which is now the back up for FireFox. I have Safari and Chrome aswell, but they don't compete with FireFox IMO.
Safari>IE.
FireFox>all.
Chrome<all.

Thats the way I roll ;)

Well basically,

Safari = Chrome (they use the same engine)

so technically:

Firefox>Webkit(safari/chrome)>IE
