I use both but I find that Firefox is my lead browser. I used Chrome for about a week then went back to Firefox because of the tools that firefox has that I use that I could not get Chrome unless I download plugins.

This was my biggest problem with Chrome, and why I don't use it anymore.

Thanks for making my day, Mika. 😀Mika said:
I was a Firefox user. But when they started bumping their version number just for the heck of it, it got slow for me. Then I switched to Chrome. And it was much faster than Firefox. It still is. But since they are making these frigging fancy updates, there is more and more bugs in it. For example, the bar that shows you where a link leads just disappears without no reason. And it`s totally random. And since I`m a web developer, it`s a real headache for me.
Another thing I noticed... Not now, a while before, but how come that I can`t see any comments in Google Chrome while I am looking at a Google Docs spreadsheet? That`s just ridiculous...
So now I don`t know what to use. Still fighting with Chrome till I decide...

I use Google Chrome and Firefox respectively.
I use Chrome to look at media and just browse around. I like their simplistic look and in terms of functionality they are excellent. You just need to keep everything in your computer updated. I don't experience Shockwave crashes often.
I only use Firefox as a test browser when I'm coding, I think their developer tools are at a higher step than Google Chrome.
Its always good to have a main and backup I guess 😀

I don't think i've ever had an issue except it does use more battery than Safari on my Macbook Pro (which is a concern when I'm low on battery at which point I switch to Safari).

I never have any problems with Chrome at all apart from flash issue with it.

I mainly use Google Chrome mostly on my Acer C720 Chromebook with only 2GB of RAM, a Celeron CPU, 16GB of storage, and Intel HD integrated video.
Chrome on a Chromebook has been running pretty well even on cheaper Chromebooks like the Acer C720 which cost $199 at the time I got it.
But, Chrome on a older Windows desktop with 1GB of RAM, 1.86GHz Dual-core CPU, and cheap Nvidia GT 620 video card is not as good because of Windows poor RAM/Memory management, and Adobe Flash which uses a lot of CPU power in Windows. I find Firefox and Palemoon Firefox runs faster on slower Windows computers.
Although, Google Chrome and Chromium(open source version of Chrome) runs pretty well on Linux OS like Puppy Linux, Lubuntu 64bit, and Linux Mint installed on the same older desktop.
