Firefox 33 Security Is Anyone Else Seeing Openh264 Video Codec Add-on As Part Of The Browser

Good question! Choosing a browser is partly about features, and on the basis of features you’ve got a good set of choices there. All the browsers you list come from reputable companies. They’re all very compatible with the web. They all get frequent bug fixes and feature improvements. They’re all safe and secure (more or less). They all have mobile versions.So what differentiates them?Many of the browsers you could choose are built by companies whose business is to make sure you see lots of their ads or buy lots of their hardware. That means they may monetize your browsing activity (e.g. sell it to advertisers) or try to lock you in to a suite of interconnected tools that are deliberately incompatible with the broader web (e.g. a closed mobile app ecosystem or an online office suite).Unlike the other browsers you mention, Firefox is built by a nonprofit, Mozilla, that has a mission to protect individual access, privacy and security on the internet. Mozilla accomplishes this mission in part by building a free, open-source, standards-based browser that does not have any hidden business agenda.If the features of a product don’t make your choice obvious, you might consider factors like motive and business model. There are real differences.

A desire not to be beholden to Google. There's a core of open-source enthusiasts who like nonprofit software development and object to corporate hegemony. There may not be that many of them on the scale of world computer users, but you did ask...

Opera mini mobile browser are known for loading pages faster because of a technology called cloud acceleration, it was useful for compressing webpages before they are shown to you and was really popular among s40/Java mobile devices, whereas other browsers were delivering full web experience by showing all the CSS/HTML details and Animation on the web pages you visit. As smartphones started to become the thing and data became affordable for most, people wanted a good web experience and opted for mobile browsers like Chrome, UC browser; Opera mini was still used by many mobile users especially in third world countries where Internet data plans are still expensive for most. So, most of the opera mini users at that time had to switch to better mobile browsers and Opera wasn't going to dominate the desktop browser game, if anything, most of the opera desktop browser users today are the loyal Opera mini users.In summary, the reason Opera browser isn't as popular as other web browsers is because they were too focused on making browsers for mobile phones that didn't display webpages as nice as other browsers which made it faster for browsing and used less data (a good advantage if you ask me) until recently when other browsers like Mozilla & Chrome have already gained more loyal users.

Firefox Quantum, as per my opinion.Firefox Quantum has overcame a lot of issues that held it back from becoming the best browser.Which is why Chrome was the best until the release of Firefox Quantum.But, now I personally don't feel Chrome is the NOT the only best browser anymore.I've been the biggest fan of Google Chrome and other Google products. I never thought I would switch from Chrome to Firefox. Which apparently happened after release of Firefox Quantum.Why it is not a Bad idea to make a switch to Firefox?Believe me, I don’t switch things that I use regularly. And Chrome was one of those things.But if as I started using Firefox Quantum, I never thought of going back to chrome.So, what made the difference?First things first.Chrome and Firefox have their own weaknesses & strengthChrome Strengths & Weakness -Weakness -Bad Memory management (It uses lots of RAM)Weakness -Tracking (Google collects lot of data)Strength - Speed & User experienceFirefox (Old) Strengths & Weakness -Strength - No TrackingStrength - Best Memory Management (Uses less RAM)Weakness - Speed, Speed and SpeedSo, considering SPEED is the Most important criteria for most people, chrome had become most widely used browser. But Memory management problem still existsBUT, now in the new Firefox Quantum, the SPEED has improved a lot. Now we have Speed, Less memory usage and also No tracking.Now Firefox Quantum has everything Chrome has and additionally it also has Great Memory Management.So, now Firefox is better in most aspects than Chrome. Also Mozilla has added many more great features to Firefox Quantum browser.So, there’s nothing wrong to say that Firefox Quantum is better browser than Chrome.Hope it helps|Susheel Karam|Follow me on Twitter @Susheel_karam
