What internet browser do you use?
I am fine with IE11, until recently it frequently crashes then restarts when playing videos and flash pages. I also have Chrome installed in my PC and use it sometimes, cause it supports voice search, can easily input Chinese characters that I don't know how type. Other than that, IE11 is my main browser.
There is no perfect browser out there, what do you recommend?

Chrome. Tried Firefox when they supposedly improved it but no, nothing is better than Chrome.

chrome at work.
chrome at home.
chrome on Nexus 5.
History/bookmarks/recent searches all are saved to each device/computer. Helps a lot when using google now on the nexus.

Firefox...since forever. Don't like the font on Chrome and how the zoom in/zoom out looks on Chrome.

You should stay as far away from IE as possible since they have an awful track record of security vulnerabilities since their debut. Look no further to just a few months ago, where the U.S. Homeland Security, for the first time, had to issue a nationwide warning to encourage their citizens to NOT USE IE.

Tried Chrome but I find Ultron to be a lot better.

At Home: Used Firefox for the longest time until I finally gave Chrome a real shot about 1 year ago and have never looked back. Firefox was just starting to feel realy slow for me.
At Work: IE because IT won't let anyone use anything else

Opera and Chrome.
Each one gets its website, so they automatically open when I launch one because of saved tabs.

Chrome just for hacker vision for night time (converts all pages to dark colors)
plus, the integration with an android device is sweet. Check out a cool restaurant/business on google on your PC, and it will appear on your android under cards (for navigation/whatever).

I switch between Chrome and Firefox.
Firefox for smooth scrolling and Chrome for speed.
Sometimes Firefox obliterates my desktop if too many tabs are open. Don't know why!

Firefox for me, I tried Chrome a few times but 1) I don't trust Google, 2) it was a massive pile of shit every time I've tried it.
sorry for a little thread derail, but im having issues with chrome and only on the RS page. hitting the back button doesn't bring me back to the previous page but after hitting the back button 4-6+ times, then it redirects me back to the previous page. i've tried clearing cache and putting chrome back to its original state and it still happens. anyone that can chime in?
