I&#x27;ve tried to like Safari. It&#x27;s certainly snappier than the alternatives. It&#x27;s fast and seems light. I&#x27;ll go as far as to say I <i>want</i> to like Safari. As a heavy iPhone and Mac user, going all in on Safari would buy me a lot. In a similar vein, I <i>want</i> to like Firefox - even more so than Safari. An open source web browser by a non-profit? Sign me up. That&#x27;s an excellent concept to rally behind.<p>But...<p>I can&#x27;t ditch Chrome. I know it eats up resources like it&#x27;s nobody&#x27;s business, I know it&#x27;s probably tracking me, I hate that it wants me to &#x27;log in&#x27; like it&#x27;s some sort of operating system, but I just can&#x27;t kick the habit.<p>I think it&#x27;s the tabs. For whatever reason, chrome is simply the best browser for those 50 tab research sessions. It&#x27;s also the best file downloader, the most configurable, has the best extension ecosystem. It manages to be the best pro-user&#x27;s browser, and the best layperson&#x27;s browser at the same time.<p>I still have all three browsers sitting in my dock. I just use Chrome by default.
