(Poll is even more flawed than previously suspected.)
If you don't like it, then don't participate in the thread. It's not for you to determine the information he's interested in gathering.
Somebody please explain to me exactly what's wrong with establishing a discussion to compare/contrast/prefer chrome-chromium to the exclusion of any and all other browsers?
Plenty I suspect, for those neurotic, passive aggressives feeling compelled to announce their opinion on any and everything.
Nobody would ever ask questions If everyone possessed encyclopedic knowledge of the man pages.
I use Firefox but I have Chrome on my system for the occasional site that doesn't play nice with Firefox. That is quite rare these days with Pepperflash available to Firefox.
Why Chrome rather than Chromium? Long time ago but I think it had something to do with Google Translate.
This is a little off-topic but I did try Chrome when in China last year. The Chinese government's hate job on Google has extended so far that Chrome simply won't work at all in China. Connecting to government and even semi-government web sites using Chrome from outside China is also a fail. Since I need to do this occasionally and my wife does it often, Chrome really isn't an option any more.
So, for now count me as one vote for Chrome, but that vote doesn't imply I'm a user. In fact, I'll probably get around to removing it one day.
I have recently (in the past year or so) been noticing a worsening situation with overall browser compatibility on the web. It's gotten to the point where I need 2 browsers to effectively see everything I want to online without jumping through hoops to get things working all on one. I use some of the free Google services, so it's Chrome for me, but I also now keep one workspace devoted to a Firefox session with a few things I simply cannot accommodate with Chrome any longer.
