I've been using Mozilla Firefox for ages now, but to be honest, it seems more memory/resource-heavy than it used to be. Or maybe I am visiting more resource-heavy web pages.... anyway, probably about time I should try out Chrome, from the sound of it.

Chrome is the most resource-sensitive browser. It runs separate processes for each tab. I have been running Firefox and Chrome both on my PC and monitoring memory usage. Chrome tops all other browsers, so you're better off with Firefox.

?

i believe he meant chrome tops other browsers in terms of memory usage. meaning, use chrome, use more memory, computer runs slower. funny, i had heard the opposite as well, though.

Sorry, I messed up my sentence. I was going to say "keep using Firefox"

To compliment my opinion, I just opened up many tabs with Chrome and this is how my Task Manager looks like:



See all those Chrome.exe processes?

In Chrome each website is different process. What is wrong with that? If one website crashes others are fine. Good trade imo.

The problem of Chrome isn't a resource one but a security one.

No signature ad here, because their conditions have become annoying.

Correct.

See how they just want you to sign in right when you launch the browser?
They want all your browsing habits to sell it to advertisers.

Targeted advertisements is Google's prime source of revenue and all free Google services come at the cost of your privacy. Android is another example.

That's correct, but it is out of most people's grasp. Only tech-savvy poeple can go for it.

One example of privacy breach: iOS gives you option to control permissions on app-basis, manually. YOU can control what permissions an app uses.
On Android, it is hard-coded. Android will show you what permissions an app uses and you can decide whether to install the app or not. But you can't control the permission set. Custom ROMs like Carbon ROM (https://carbonrom.org/) gives you this ability.

Tor is best as an alternate ..! I don't know many out there who prefer TOR as primary browser.

Chrome is the best, but it makes loads of processes and eats your RAM and CPU power, which can be a pain for older computers, Firefox is better for older rigs.
