It'd be nice to have some plugins for ROBLOX, but I've noticed all of them are for Google Chrome. I thought I'd make the plugins for Firefox, but then thought about it and just might switch over to Chrome. Anyone want some plugins for Firefox? Otherwise, I'll just hop on over to Chrome.

You're better off moving to Chrome. It's the "hip" thing now, and probably will be for a while.

Eh, I just have a couple problems with Chrome and Firefox has a larger programmer community, so I'm still having a hard time deciding.

When did I say that? 0.o

If you use both, and would like the plugins for Firefox as well, you could've just posted that. If you're referring to me switching, it's because I'm not very good using multiple browsers -- I like to stick with one.

I had to switch to firefox because of chrome's obnoxious memory usage and the 30 chrome.exe's which filled task manager.

I prefer Firefox because

A) I hate using a browser which requires you to go through all of these settings just so the browser doesn't track you and sell your info.
B) Google Chrome's community has a larger population of idiots
C) It's made by Google
D) I like Firefox's look better
E) Firefox is more customizable

Since when do browsers have communities? Anyone who uses IE is a moron, but that is just a plainly accepted fact.

Community as in people who use it. Someone could be in the Firefox and Chrome community.

Surprisingly, I've seen people prefer IE over Chrome, but when I think about telling them that IE sucks, I don't and continue laughing.

If you're using Chrome, you're doing it wrong. Everyone using Chrome should just be using Chromium, because it's exactly the same thing but without the tracking.

Trust me, you don't want to switch from Firefox :-)
I've considered making a plugin for Firefox but it looks like a lot of work. That and any plugin I would want has already been made :-)

@julien The multiple processes is if one crashes the entire browser doesn't come down.

Oh yeah now i remember, i wanted to test some guys half finished webGL game, and it ran at like 1 FPS on firefox (using deprecated features? some tiny unsupported thing in firefox that causes the whole thing go software emulated? idk) so i switched to chrome.

I still have firefox tho but i use chrome for no specific reason.

Chrome is the only browser with a built-in task manager.

There is one individual task for each tab, each extension, each plugin and one for the browser itself. You can shift+esc to see which one is taking up so much memory. The browser itself may take up twice as much memory as firefox, but that's because it has to manage all of these external processes (which are external so that if one of them freezes/crashes, they are on their own thread.)

People who prefer IE over something else that isn't IE are morons.
