I recently switched from Chrome back to Firefox after the news about Google forcing people to stay logged-in to Chrome for tracking purposes. I’ve switched in the past but always ended up switching back for one reason or another. This time I’ve actually been very happy with it and don’t think I’ll switch back soon.
Better in Firefox:
* Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently-used order. Just like Cmd+Tab. This feature is wonderful and is easier to access than Chrome’s Shift+Cmd+A.
* In Firefox the two-finger swipe forward/back works much better. Three-finger swipe works well in both.
* Built-in reader mode that’s instantaneous and works well. In Chrome you need an add-on.
Better in Chrome:
* Has tab groups. There doesn’t seem to be a tab group add-on for Firefox that works like Chrome’s tab groups.
* Google Docs dictation works. But I never use that.
* Printing lets you scale up past the page size (useful for printing my AYSO team’s lineup).
