I've been running Chrome for a couple of years now - I like the cross-platform commonality of things. But, it's become a bit of a resource hog I've noticed, and several of the changes in system function (such as bookmarks) are a bit frustrating.
So what is everyone else using for browsers these days?

I bounce between chrome and firefox. I've been on chrome for a while, but it is definitely showing the bloat, along with being annoyingly smug about what it won't support based on what google thinks the internet should work like. I'm this --> <-- close to switching back to firefox.
Same as Phelps... sigh There are days I truly MISS Netscape...
I use Chrome, but if I were to stop, my first choice would be the Firefox fork called "Pale Moon".
I would also suggest adding a flash blocker to stop hidden flash crap from running. That will make it less of a hog. As to other browsers I am not much help as I basically only use chrome now.
I'm using a Flash blocker and an ad blocker, it's all the other Chrome bloat that is bugging me. Along with as I said their interface changes.
But sounds like everyone is basically in the same boat, at least until a new option emerges.
Thanks for the inputs.
You might want to try Opera. Or one of the following
SeaMonkey- Mozilla/Firefox offshoot
Epic- Privacy focused browser.
Chromium- Chrome without Google spying/reporting
Iron- Chrome base also. Security focused. Supposedly fast page rendering.
Duckduckgo.
