Everyone in this thread needs to put their money where their mouth is and go back to Firefox if they're currently using Chrome.
- Slartie 8y agoDid exactly this, a few weeks ago. Was heavy Chrome user, now fully on Firefox (and Safari on mobile). I am so satisfied with this decision, and the transition was much easier than expected.
- fareesh 8y agoI would do it instantly if the devtools were half as convenient as Chrome. Unfortunately they are super clunky
- martin_a 8y agoWhat are you missing? I was feared of this too, but they seem to be just fine.
- chillydawg 8y agoCan't inspect websocket frames. It's ridiculous.
- martin_a 8y agoI'm out of that, but maybe somebody else in here got an idea how to fix your problem with that.
- chillydawg 8y agoMy solution is to use chrome when faced with that particular limitation. There's a bug open on the mozilla tracker and it's been there for a while but no one seems to care.
- askmike 8y agoWhile I run into this too from time to time, it's not something everyone uses. Also it takes me 5 seconds to workaround by debug logging incoming ws messages. Most web devs I talk to can do everything with FF devtools more than fine.
- BorRagnarok 8y agoI use both, Chrome for client side dev, Firefox for everything else. Chrome is just the dev tool. Works like a charm because switching between tabs inside a browser is just as quick as alt-tabbing between browsers.
- kreetx 8y agoI use them all the time, don't seem clunky to me. What else is not working other than the websockets inspection you mentioned?
- martin_a 8y agoDid it on Monday evening. Great choice, no problems at all. Could import all data, also switched to Firefox on my Smartphone where I can now run uBlock, too.
- chillydawg 8y agoIt makes such a difference on mobile being able to run a good blocker.
- martin_a 8y agoTotally. I am also running my own Ad blocking VPN with Pihole/PiVPN and routing all my mobile traffic through that. It's just great and probably the best $4/month (for the Vultr instance) I have ever spent.

- fock 8y agoThis. I would argue that Chrome seems faster (probably proprietary tech on most sites), but with µBlock, this is gone and there's no ads.
- jhasse 8y agoNo hardware video decoding on Linux ...
- VadimPR 8y agoIndeed - but it's hardly an issue in practice.
- foobarbecue 8y agoCan't, locked in by the password manager and android integration.
