Safari on mac, firefox on windows

PS. just wait for a "OMFG ANOTHER POLL LIKE THAT? OMG OMG OMG OMG THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END!"

be ready ;)

But this poll is specifically for Mac platform, not that everyone would notice that this poll is for Mac only and vote for Firefox/IE even though they don't use a Mac. If you don't use a Mac, please null vote.

Yeah, I know. That's why I voted Safari :cool:

Even though there are other thread's, i'll vote/comment in this one.

I use Safari, nice, minimal browser, and the engine is much faster than Gecko (Camino/Firefox), on par with Opera (and OmniWeb uses the same engine, just an older version), with standards support, well they all support a good amount of CSS, XHTML, DOM, etc. (although Safari has issues with named entities and XHTML 1.1, i got told i shouldn't be using XHTML when i asked how to fix it, not very helpful).

And the 4 people using IE, i feel sorry for you, doesn't any of the others run on your system (as IE isn't better than any of them in any way, and has been discontinued for a while).

Used to use Firefox along with over 20 various extensions on Linux and Windows, but since switching to a Mac, I've grown to like Safari.

By itself, Safari is quite minimal, but I use it with PithHelmet and Saft, which fill in most of the functionality that I used with Firefox extensions. Granted, no mouse gestures, but I've grown used to using the keyboard and additional mouse buttons instead.

One thing I love about Saft is its crash-recovery and session saving ability, in addition being able to undo closing the previous tab.

Safari.

I'm a MySpace ###### and some of those profile pages freeze up my Mac browsers (Safari, Firefox, Opera...) which sucks ass. LOL There should be a patch for Mac broswers to not freeze on those pages.

yer alot of them seem to crash on myspace, mainly due to the amount of different plug ins you need to listen to the music, watch the videos and other stupid things

    • Was it too much to ask to show the icon in this article?
    • Frankly, I blame whoever is writing such articles. "A big improvement/update and/or new feature is now available to everyone! Also, use this unofficial tweak tool to enable it because it actually isn't available to you yet officially and might not in fact even be entirely ready or whatever, hence why it is perhaps not enabled for you*. But it's great and you should enable it!" I mean there's nothing wrong with sharing info about some feature you might need to enable via unofficial means, of course. It's just that these articles tend to essentially end up being two news pieces in one, and one of them tends to be a bit misleading. (*Yes, yes, the "it's a controlled rollout!" thing. Not a fan of that one either. The argument, not the actual rollout.)
    • Thank you. Will do. I read in the release notes that editor config might be at play here.
    • Actually, I think even Microsoft doesn't know how to control it
    • OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI's Codex now has more than 5 million users, up nearly 4x from earlier this year. To further accelerate Codex's growth among developers, OpenAI today announced that it has agreed to acquire Ona, a company that builds secure cloud execution and orchestration technology for developers. Ona will enable developers to run Codex with persistent and controlled cloud infrastructure for long-running agentic workflows. Right now, most Codex execution happens locally on developers' laptops and PCs, and the agents work continuously for hours. Through Ona, OpenAI aims to make Codex agents keep working for days without being tied to a user’s local machine or an active session. This will be an important capability for enterprises that want to deploy AI agents in production while maintaining control over infrastructure, data, security boundaries, credential scope, logging, and review workflows. Like any acquisition, the deal is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, OpenAI and Ona will continue to operate as separate companies. After closing, Ona’s team will join the Codex team to improve developer workflows. Alongside the Ona acquisition announcement, OpenAI today introduced a few Codex updates. Developers can now save Codex rate limit resets and use them later instead of losing them when they are not needed immediately. OpenAI is also adding a referral option where users can invite a friend to Codex and get a saved rate limit reset. OpenAI today also announced a developer mode for browser use in Chrome and the Codex in-app browser. With this mode, Codex can use the Chrome DevTools Protocol to debug web apps, inspect pages, and work more directly with browser-based development workflows. Developers can use this when they want Codex to profile JavaScript, inspect console output and network traffic, examine web page states including the DOM and applied styles, and more.
