Should I switch to Chrome?

I've been using Firefox for about a decade but everyone I talk to talks about how awesome Chrome is. I'm on a mid-2012 MBP, if it makes a difference, and I refuse to use Safari.

I use both. But primarily Firefox because it has all the plugins I need and use.

I'm a big Chrome fan. I used Firefox forever, but once I gave Chrome a chance, I never looked back.

Firefox is my preference by a huge margin. Use Pale Moon if your computer is 64 bit. Chrome doesn't satisfy my inner nerd, I mean shit, there's not even an about:config

I started using chrome when firefox was going through some growing pains with flash a couple years ago. I don't really need it "fully tinkerable" just something that's not IE that works. And being google, it's set up pretty nicely.

I rate a program based on the amount of options and tinkering ability. That's why I generally can't stand Apple products, for example. I don't want to suit myself to a product, I want to suit the product to me and that can only be done with a bunch of options and stuff.

I like chrome cause I find it to be faster on my old pentium 4 than any other browsers. It starts faster and pops up web pages quicker. Ime anyway.
When I had a better pc I was all about some Firefox.

There are 64 bit plugins for everything you just gotta install them. I've never run into an issue and I've been using PMx64 for a couple years.

I'm pretty sure it's just a TorBrowser package that they slightly modified.

Cyberfox is a new one for me. What's the difference in Cyberfox and Waterfox? I don't like that it runs from a FF profile which unless I'm understand wrong means you need a concurrent installation of FF to run Cyberfox. Just like Waterfox.
Pale Moon uses its own profile so you don't need FF installed to run it.
