I read on PC mag that they launched the first week of June a few different versions of Chrome 64 bit.

no one said IE11 is fastest and safest browser ....well IMO, IE11 is lightest and fastest browser at least in windows 8.1U1

 

[reyes]

Chrome may be the fastest(uses more CPU for me) Palemoon 64 bit gives me the best of all speed and stability

Does Slimjet actually stays up to date with the latest current version of chrome?
Also, does Slimjet"stealing your privacy" And spy on you? Like Chrome?
Just trying to get a better feel for Slimjet Browser!

Thanks!

If you like to carry tabs from session to session you need to stay away from the Chromium family browsers--they can't handle very many tabs--and choose a Gecko family browser. I think the best is Pale Moon.

A good Gecko family browser can handle 200 tabs better than a Chromium browser can handle two dozen tabs.

My nephew swears by Firefox, he says its really fast compared to IE.

Pale Moon for me. I had a short run with Opera, but it is way less stable. Pale Moon's UI even feels just as comfortable as Chrome-based browsers' UIs when opening/closing many tabs -- actually more comfortable because of its stability and speed.

What happen to Cyberfox?

Testing Pale Moon 64bit also.
Could well be a keeper

what are the differences of the new Opera with Chrome/chromium; by this i mean speed/resources usage/security/addons

i remember Opera is not the best for their addons collection.

who open 200 tabs at same time?!

Nah, Slimjet like all the Chromium browers is not in the same league with Gecko browsers in being able to handle accumulating tabs.

who open 200 tabs at same time?!

I've done it. 8 or 9 Malware Tips tabs, maybe a dozen tabs of Major Geeks downloads I want to take a closer look at, tabs from numerous other computer sites, half a dozen YouTube videos, a dozen politics tabs, tabs with journal abstracts, a few sports tabs, updating maps of the civil wars in Iraq and Syria, it can start adding up. But only on a Gecko browser can you get away with accumulating tabs like that.

Some people accumulate more tabs than me, and they actually get extensions to allow them to do a search through their tabs.

lol, why just not open a tab and after reading close it?

The Chrome store has some good extensions, though not nearly as many as the Mozilla store. I would get Session Buddy to ensure the browser doesn't lose your last session's tabs. You need a password manager. There's a LastPass extension.You can get a Duck Duck Go add-on.There are plenty of good security extensions, including several variants of AdBlock, some anti-script extensions, Bitdefender TrafficLight, Avira, avast!, and Advanced System Care extensions, Webutation.

I do suggest you try Pale Moon.

Often I don't have time to read it as carefully as it deserves when I first spot it.Some things I want to keep around, like the maps.

on my pc opera is the fastest but i use chrom

I think, It comes after Palemoon.
Two best x64 Firefox based brothers : Palemoon x64 (big brother) , Cyberfox x64
Cyberfox still needs some development. Offering two interface in one browser (old UI and Australis) causes some bugs in interface and lags.
So first Palemoon then Cyberfox ın my opinion.

I've tried every browser & I always come back to chrome.

Pale Moon seems to be performing great for me.
Definitely a keeper for now
