General Discussion • Re: Another rant on web browsers
I thought I would chime in here since I am not a power user.
Luke Smith's comments do not sway me in any way. Mainly because his comments for me are too technical in nature along with the power user jargon. And I have a feeling the non-power users on the internet are more like me and not the power user types.
After demoing a browser for a period of time, I only have three criteria to make a decision on a browser to keep using it.
- A browser I like to use.
- A browser I want to use.
- A browser I need to use.
And sometimes these three criteria are not in the same order of preference, but those three criteria have to be there.
This is the reason why I have been using windows Pale Moon when I found it 2011 (or around that time) when I was using Windows 7. Then again when linux Pale Moon was publicly released in January of 2014 when I was using Linux Mint 13.
Pale Moon is not perfect for obvious reasons since some websites do not render properly. So I needed a backup browser to compliment Pale Moon. But I use the same three criteria when I need a backup browser and Waterfox fills those likes, wants and needs. This is the long and short of it for me.
