fpd Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 Firefox - because with the number of extensions out there it is incredibly customisable with as many or as few features as you want. For example the gmail notifier and the sage rss reader from www.extensionsmirror.nl Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/234839-firefox-or-opera/#findComment-584793309 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Live Veteran Posted October 23, 2004 Veteran Share Posted October 23, 2004 If you want the lowest memory footprint, best compatability, and best performance, the clear choice is Internet Explorer. If you're on a Mac, then Safari is your best option. On Linux, Konqueror is my choice though it's a more level playing field there. If you want features as well I would recommend Maxthon or Avant Browser.

Many sites are switching to true standards and Internet Explorer has trouble displaying real standard code that's also advanced. I would also say Firefox is ten times better than Opera. Opera is not good at being compatible, while Firefox is. Also, Firefox definitely has a lighter, better-looking interface. Not to mention you can customize it quite a bit using CSS.

Android Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 Why don't you try both and see how you get on with both, compare memory usage and start up times on your PC?

I'm not saying Opera is not worth the money, I'm just saying if someday you do need to by for firefox, I'll be more willing to pay for it than opera...

Urrrrr , just for your information.

shihchiun Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 firefox - no ads in ANY version, and if you really want mouse gestures or whatever there's probably already an extension (or several) that'll do what you want. you can also customize the interface to have as little or as much crap as you want.

I'm not saying Opera is bad, its rendering speed is impressive. it's the UI i don't really like, Firefox's UI is cleaner. On the other hand, because Firefox's opensource, people can download the source and compile optimized builds (and apply pathces that can optimize the performance further), which (definitely and obviously) are faster than the official builds. Yes I have proof, I myself is an unofficial builder ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/234839-firefox-or-opera/#findComment-584793626 Share on other sites More sharing options...
