Moved your topic here from the support section.
"Best web browser" is probably a very subjective choice

My favorite one is Chromium - it seems to run and load websites very fast, and it's simple to use.
But the best one is... INTERNET EXPLORER

My favorite one is SlimBoat Web Browser from http://www.slimboat.com . It is packed with convenient features so that I don't have to hunt for plugins all over the place. And it loads very fast as well.

I prefer Opera, but I won''t ask anyone to follow me..

Opera is the best browser by a clear mile...
Re: Best web browser for Linux mint 2013.
Im using always Mozilla Firefox and I like it because of it customisation options. My spare browser is Google Chrome.

Many people these days have a spare" browser I think I think that, like you, many even feel the need for having a spare. Firefox for me too, with Chrome as spare. I'm experimenting a bit with QupZilla.RacerBG wrote:My spare browser is ...

I have one because when Im using my mobile connection sometimes it feels faster on the other - that's why I prefer to have 2 and IF something very wrong happen and one is deleted then I can use the other to recover.xenopeek wrote:Many people these days have a spare" browser I think I think that, like you, many even feel the need for having a spare.

I use Firefox because of everything it can do but i have Midori as a backup. It would be kind of cool to see a native Safari that is good. I have seen it for the new OsX as it simple beautiful.konqueror is nice if you want something different. I just hope HTLM5 hurry and takes over becuase flash player just really takes up to much Ram and it can really slow your computer down

I noticed that when I opened one flash game for instance (Angry Birds on FB) my memory raised from around 380 MB to 1580 MB!Incentive I.C wrote:I use Firefox because of everything it can do but i have Midori as a backup.

Firefox, purely because of noscript. Otherwise I'd be back on Chromium.

I love Google Chrome. I can install a new version of Mint, or use my daughter's computer, and I have all my browser config and bookmarks available without any extra effort.

Re: Best web browser for Linux mint 2013.
I would definitely rather use Internet Explorer than this one :abnvolk wrote: But the best one is... INTERNET EXPLORER

Firefox.
Add-ons are king, especially No-Script, which I regard to be mandatory for browsing the web.
For all it's purported "lightness" I wouldn't touch Google chrome with a ten foot pole. I'm not going to trust a web browser from a company who's primary source of income is selling my info to advertisers.

I'm really liking Seamonkey lately! I decided to try it when Firefox and Thunderbird stopped communicating properly with each other. Clicking on a link in Thunderbird used to automatically open Firefox and go to the URL in the email, but just quit working one day. Clicking on an e-mail address in Firefox used to open Thunderbird and automatically start a new composition window addressed to the recipient in the link. That too just stopped working one day.
Seamonkey is still a Mozilla project, and having really enjoyed FF and T-Bird for so long I thought I should look at Mozilla's other stuff before exploring totally unfamiliar new browsers. I'm really glad I did! It seems a little faster than Firefox, has most of the add-on compatibility, and of course, perfect integration between the browser, the e-mail client, and the additional goodies (IRC chat, HTML editor). It "feels like" an older and slightly faster version of Firefox and Thunderbird in a nice all-in-one "Internet suite." I really like it! And Seamonkey has been the default browser/email client for several releases of Puppy Linux because it's so easy on resources, yet about as fully-featured as it's separate cousins from Mozilla.

The Seamonkey Suite is nice. Good security controls on the browser. The Seamonkey HTML wysiwyg Composer is superb.
