Worthwhile switch from Safari to FF3 for Mac users who weren't thrilled with 2 on OS X.

Wbkit > Gecko. I like Firefox for it's extensions and features, but Safari w/ Webkit renders so much faster.

That would be subjective opinion. I thought Safari 3 was a stronger offering than FF2 for OS X (10.4.9 and 10.5). And unless I was doing web development I used Safari 3 until FF3 beta.

Havent really noticed any NEW features yet. The layout is a bit different, it looks a bit more user-friendly.

The only add-ons im using now is the weather one, foxytunes, and morning coffee.

Care to be  bit more specific? How was it shit.

Aside from the occasional Javascript and even more rare rendering issues it was fast to load from start and fast to load each page. Easily beat FF2 in terms of rendering speed.

It worked for all the sites I frequented. So I'm not sure how you qualify it as a piece of shit?

Safari 3 was a pretty hefty improvement. And with exception to my Student Access site for Uni all my sites worked fast and clean on it.

Yea Safari is far from shit. Much better than IE7 and Opera imo. webkit is superior (in terms of rendering speed) to gecko as well.

and all bugs aside, compatibility is the main issue at hand. enjoy not being able to surf wherever you want.

a lot of sites even say "safari not supported, get firefox".

when i'm on the mac i always use firefox.

firefox is the best browser for mac, that's all i know. i'm speaking from experience.

i hated when safari would load pages wrong and they'd be all fucked up.

opera is supposed to be pretty good though, but still has the compatibility issues. it's always nice to have multiple browsers though encase of said issues, but if i had to pick i'd go with firefox.

hmm ill have to ask my dad what he uses. As im sure you know Mozilla is the creator of FireFox and they specifically made a browser for Mac which is very good. I dont know if its as good as FireFox since Macs are for homosexuals. :shrug:

right on!

safari doesn't suck, if you just want a browser, that works. webkit is for a fact faster at rendering pages than gecko. you linked a bunch bias old articles you just googled, who cares?

usg543: do you work for mozilla?

FF3 is pretty good but not THAT much better than Safari 3.

Now if you had a page issue with Safari 3 that was a much bigger problem. but I didn't.


Safari 3 = Fast, Clean, Light,

Firefox 2 = Obtrusive, Quirky, Used more ram

Firefox 3 = Cleaner, About as fast, No real issue thus far.

Camino = When I wanna switch it up a bit.


Also did you know it's possible to use more than one browser at once or in a session?
