Web browsers are the probably the most used software on a PC and/or mobile phone, so even the most minor of issues can make you want to ditch it and try something else.
..and that's exactly what has happened to me! I've been using Firefox again for the last few years again since Chrome became a bit of a resource hog, however over the last couple of weeks I've been rapidly losing patience with it. There's been inconsistent handling of CSS harking back to the days of Internet Explorer and having to add a pathetic amount of workaround code, then I've also been having issues where it would go in to an unresponsive state and wouldn't do anything when entering URLs or selecting bookmark links.. Fun.
So I've now swapped to Microsoft Edge (chromium) and I'm pretty happy with it.. It seems to have the benefits of Chrome without the same resource issues.
I was also using Firefox on my Android phone and have swapped that at the same time, since the same CSS inconsistencies were present. I've reluctantly gone back to Chrome on that for now..
