IE sucks, #1 source of virus infections in Windows

Firefox + Adblock greatest evah!

:-P

Microsoft's fault for thinking it was cleaver to combine IE with the operating system.

More so for their intentionally not adhering to standards and making up their own and leaving in catastrophic bugs and leaving out essential features and refusal for years and years (and years and years) to fix those issues.

Now they're making it so you can draw on web pages. Whoopty fucking doo.

First create a product that follows Web standards then slap all your crappy useless features on top of it. Fuck off.

Yup, thinking they could create all their own standards was a major fault. It was working at first, when people were using Inter Dev and Front Page, couldn't get their sites to run on anything but Internet Explorer (thinking browsers like Netscape was the problem.)

But once outside programers created better authoring software, and everyone realized it was all that MS code that was screwing up all the browsers, people started flocking away pretty quickly...

Rumour is that MS's W10 browser will support Chrome extensions. Somehow.

I'm somewhat curious. I'm falling out of favour with Chrome, it gets bogged down and chuggs badly on mobile CPUs when you use font scaling. Also Google's application design is increasingly becoming restrictive and frustrating. Why is there no way to turn off auto-update? Why is the interface locked from modification and I'm forced to squint painfully at the address bar on my 1920x1080p 13 inch laptop?

Firefox has terrible font rendering and I haven't been able to improve it. I originally moved over from it because it seemed to have memory issues where over time videos would randomly freeze for like half a second during play intermittently, dunno if they fixed it.

Opera seems better in these regards but I can't for the life of me get used to browsing without alt + # for switching between tabs.

Meanwhile IE 11 handles font scaling well and memory wise seems fine, but also lacks basic extensions at the moment. If they fix this issue I may switch over at least on my laptop.

Moving this video to lucky760's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
