    I moved back to Firefox while ago after having some trouble with Chrome (mainly with Boards for some reason), and like it. Quick, plenty of addons and doesn't use that much resources (though i can't really remember how the others compare in that area).

    I use Opera now and quite like it. Used to always use Firefox but was a bit annoyed when most addons were disabled in the latest release.

    Just curious,

    You say you moved back to Firefox, what made you move away from it in the first place that isn't an issue now?

    I think Chrome was a lot faster up until recently when Firefox closed the distance with there new release ?

    I like Firefox ESR as it's still compatible with all the old addons.
