I use both, but my experience is different.
I use Firefox, for my trusted sites, mail, banking, various stores, documentation etc.
I use chrome, fore throwaway lookups etc.
Firefox runs for weeks at the time (I am on always on desktops (work and home)) (I restart firefox when new update hits.), but chrome gets laggy after few days.
And i am the type of person that has 100s of tabs open, over few windows each.
I do use primarily Linux though, if that makes any difference.
- royjacobs 5y agoThat's odd. I'm running MacOS so perhaps the leak is in the OS layer somewhere. Oh well. Looks like I'll just have to give Firefox another chance _again_ at some point :)
- vidyesh 5y agoWe have similar usage patterns for Firefox vs chrome, only difference being I use various chromium based browsers(not just chrome) in private mode for throwaway, lookups etc and FF has not more than 30 tabs open all the time. I can attest to the reliability of FF on Windows and Linux. And chrome with 10-12 tabs starts hoarding memory on Windows after keeping it open for a few days.
