I use Ubuntu(linux Os) and I have been using Firefox for years.. I have gotten tired of the crashes also,, There are a lot of choices out there even on a linux OP.. I go back and forth between Firefox, chrome and Opera.
It depends on what I am doing..

I have been using Firefox for a long time and I am happy with its performance. There were some issues and crashes in some earlier versions, but after it had been updated the problems were solved. I feel that if your current browser can provide you with all the functions that you need, why should you change it? You have already got yourself familiar with it.

Orca is/was my favorite. Unfortunately its been abandoned and can't be updated any longer. That could lead to some security issues. They merged it with Avant browser, but Avant is much too slow on my system, so looks like its Firefox and IE for now. I would really like to develop my own browser.

Hello
Actually I am using more than one browser on my computer. I use different browser for different sites. I mean why not to use features of all of them. As all of them having some unique and good feature. I am using internet explorer, chrome, firefox and opera. There is nothing like best. I mean all people having their own choice, so choice can be different for different people.

I prefer Firefox best.
After that chrome.
I also tried Opera at one point and while i didn't dislike it. I didn't like it either.
And of course last and least. Internet Explorer, is just terrible...

My current internet browser is internet explorer. For years I used firefox because my brother who has worked on computers since he was 15 told me it was the best to use. Although there is a lot that I love about firefox I started to have some issues with it when I was trying to upload photos on gather and it would never let me do it. For years I thought gather had just blocked me from uploading photos and sent them several emails asking what I had done to deserve being blocked. They always emailed me very confused emails suggesting I clear my cookies. (I think that is the standard reply now. Haha) One day I accidently opened internet explorer instead of firefox and figured out I could upload photos from them, but not from firefox. Okay. I still have issues downloading things to my computer and I'm not sure what that is about. But, my computer is rather old in computer years. 2008? Laptop.

My current browser is Internet Explorer (IE) 8.0.6001.18702IC (I know version 9 is available, but everytime I go to the upgrade-page some app there tells me 'Your current IE is the optimum browser for your operating-system.' That is Windows XP ... and I know that Windows 8/24/2014/next-a-rama is 'out there,' but---I don't know, upgrading seems too much a hassle ... like the Tower of Babel when the 'hut' works just fine )
Of course I'm not 'satisfied with it' because the people who WRITE programs that govern most of the websites out there are writing them cheifly for the purposes of-'counting the number of people who surf to their server' rather than -'getting the information-and/or-entertainment delivered to the surfers' minds.'

I already tried Chrome, Firefox , IE, and Safari,
I just want to tell that I still recommend
Chrome and Firefox, because they're both light browsers that doesn't bring you heavy lags, or delays, unlike in IE, it has nany toolbars, delays lags, not respoding and others
Safari, I dont feel that im secured to that browser,
