In this, Google is not my master
Seriously, I think I really hate Google Chrome. It's slow and it freezes up all over the place if I have more than 5-6 tabs open. It's true that Firefox also slows down when I open a bunch of tabs...but we're talking after eighty or so tabs. I always have a lot of tabs open and 5-6 is a low number for me.
And Google Chrome does this thing where if there's a page loading in on one tab, the pages on all the other tabs freeze, which makes the whole tabbed browsing thing pointless. I like to switch to new tabs if something is taking awhile to load in, but I can't do that on Chrome because the whole thing freezes up. And on Chrome, every page takes awhile to load in. And reloading is a nightmare. And it randomly tries to tell me that I don't have permission to access certain pages, which will be fixed by reloading, but I've already mentioned the part where reloading takes forever and also freezes up all the other tabs. And when I right-click a link to open a new tab, sometimes it takes four or five clicks for it to even register that I'm telling it to do something. And the stripped-down browser controls actually really bug me because I feel like I can't do anything with it. I keep looking for buttons and options that just aren't there.
I downloaded Chrome because it was supposed to be small and light and faster and not use as many system resources as Firefox. I guess if you're only using one or two tabs it's fine. But it can't seem to handle any heavier usage, so it's completely useless for me. I'm going back to Firefox.
