- tarkin2 6y agoI use Firefox’s tools. The console as a tiny editor is cool. I think Chrome has a better network timeline/waterfall and performance monitor thing. But I only use those occasionally.
- chopin 6y agoI hate Chrome with a passion. But: Annoyingly, Firefox hides the the call stack for some error messages which is especially painful if these come from a framework. Chrome never fails me to show the entire call stack. As well inspection of request and response content is painful. Mouse scroll doesn't work and the horizontal bar shows only up when scrolling all the way down. Finally copying and pasting any header content is abysmal. I never get it to work. I use Firefox, even for development because I reject any support for Google but I wish there weren't these usability issues.
- pkulak 6y agoFirefox devs tools are great. I just use Chrome to play the occasional Stadia game.
- rado 6y agoSame here. Also never used any browser extension. Web devs need the pure browser experience.
- _puk 6y agoThe cumulative total hours wasted from all the Devs that accidentally left an ad blocker on whilst developing, then spent time debugging a misbehaving app has to be pretty high! I know I've been caught out on that one before..
- dewey 6y agoUsing Chrome without extensions is probably as secure as it gets.
