I basically use any browser without any problems, I really want to know what the fuss is about lol.
Right now I'm using Microsoft edge, because its on windows 10 and my new laptop uses windows 10, works just like any other browser, opens webpages, which is what I look for in a browser. I also use internet explorer which I hear so many complaining about, has worked just fine for me since windows 95 until now.
The only browser I had a problem with was firefox, it didn't work with the logins of some of my distributors websites.

Chrome is the biggest hog. After you load Chrome and open a site, go into task manager and see what kind of resource it takes up.
I used to use Chrome. Not anymore!

And that's a problem, why? I can understand if you run it on a 10 year old system, but anything remotely modern runs it without issue.
It probably didn't perform that greatly when new.
Most of the time you can chuck some more RAM in it and be 'okay'. If you only have a couple of GB then that's more of the issue.

Well i use to be a big fan of Chrome but lately Chrome has let me down,also Support for 32bit systems,Also i find Firefox better for some things on my Systems ,example: i stream on BeinSportsDirect and only Firefox or Explorer because cause of Silverlight needed to stream On BeinSports live tv,Chrome won't let the use silverlight,Also on my ATI card HD 4650 streams on one site where i stream live sports i can't get full screen,so al in all i use on most streaming sites Firefox period.

Are you really still running 32 bit systems? And I do agree that not all sites play well with Chrome, lots of the network monitoring gear I work with displays poorly in Chrome.
Looking at you asdm
I'll go out on a limb here and say that Edge actually isn't too bad IMO. It's really snappy feeling and meshes well with W10. I do not personally use it though as I'm deeply ingrained into my multiple google accounts. Especially since all my passwords are saved there.

Well i disagree; first of all; Edge doesn't have a good add a block like Firefox or Chrome and without Add-block no way i can stream video on most sites, second i subscribe to Fubotv and Edge is terrible, special when i watch my DVR games,and also Edge won't install silver light so i can't watch BeinSportsDirect so Firefox is the winner for me now.
Someone said:Quote; who has 32bit Computer? well i do have 2 of them one is a 32 bit Sony Vaio centrino laptop 1.5GHZ 1 GHZ ram still with Win XP and it streams live tv like a champion,the other not so good for streaming video but i use it mostly for browsing. but to back me up i have 2 desktops I5 4 cores 3.1GHZ 6 GHZ RAM,and 2 HP Laptops Duo cores 2.00ghz 6ghz Ram, and since i'm live sports fan i have 1 roku 4, and 2 roku 1's.
