using the best components and the best software is hardly a knockoff experience. i don't care what they pay the asians who watch the machines make it.

If by best you mean the most shiny and overpriced, focusing on an absolute lack of functionality in exchange for something looking gorgeous, then I think we are finally in agreement

compared to safari, literally anything is the best browser. netscape 4 is better than safari. any version of chrome. knoqueror 1.0. internet explorer is actually better than safari, which is like comparing feces for quality, texture, and taste

safari: good for finger gestures, but if you have to work on a trackpad all day kill you are self

ie 11 : seems good, but not much support outside bare browsing. always asking you questions to turn off extensions because people don't read.

chrome: works well, good extensions, everything is going to google tho (including what you type into anything if you use the spell checker)

firefox: lol how can you make a browser this slow?

pity the poor but don't help them, you can't cure stupid. it really bothers me when someone thinks that their poverty computer (or iPhone knockoff) is not only equal to a apple product but also better. it's not a coincidence that stupid people are poor, let me tell you. sorry about your poverty though, it obviously bothers you to see people doing real work on a real computer when you walk past a coffee shop you can't afford coffee from.

firefox works fast and has no memory leaks on my machine.

it can also block ads without downloading them first unlike chrome (did chrome fix that?)

Chrome is actually really good

took years to just adopt directwrite so text rendering was xp-cleartype style up until recently which looked like poo poo, finally implemented dw but fonts still look weird as gently caress compared to every other DW based app, horrible trackpad scrolling and resizing speed on OSX (and windows but that's normal)

chrome is basically the best bet to be compatible with the widest range of sites so I get that, but how text looks and UI responsiveness with a given input method matter to me when choosing a browser and chrome loving falls hard in both of those
