I use both. I think Chrome looks simplistic, minimalistic and seems a little fast. I feel Firefox is very good due to the many add-ons available for it. It also has great looks. Which of the two do you like and mostly use?

Chrome is such a ram hog. Niliacha i use Firefox. Chrome only when i need to deal with some Google products. Shida ya chrome it will be using your ram even when its closed ni kama an os in its own fighting na windows

Ram hata mimi ninayo mob sana. Bedn monitoring and realised that chrome uses more ram than nikifungua photoshop and Autodesk 3ds max at the same time.

Guys, unused RAM is wasted RAM. If your RAM inatumika 90%, it's better than ikiwa 10%. Wacheni RAM itumike. Killing processes doesn't really work. Ata kwa simu, more often than not.

RAM was meant to be used, not to be freed up kila time.


Otherwise, for me, Firefox ni poa ya web dev jobs, chromodo (an ultrasecure version of chrome) is good for normal surfing. No phoning back home to google with my usage statistics. IE for banking/cash transactions.

Can any villager confirm this to me and if possible explain further. I heard that when one uses google chrome one is vulnerable to hacking as its not that secure and again they keep records of any browsing activities including ones emails and bank transactions etc etc.
