He doesn't really give any reasons for switching, apart from the memory use and privacy concerns. I don't care about privacy but the memory use is a problem. I have 2 GB RAM which should be plenty, but Chrome way too often locks up my machine.

Hi. The author of the blog post is me. As I stated in my article, it's only my personal opinion( and most technology literate's). Chrome is bad and you should feel bad for using it because -It is closed source and thus, enemy of your freedom. -It is made by Google, which we know how bad they are with privacy. -It uses a lot of memory and do not give me this " But who doesn't have more than 4 GB of RAM in 2011!" drama. -It can't block ads properly. -It has terrible, terrible addons because the API doesn't allow proper developing. -You can barely customize it. -It's based of WebKit

The list can go on. Firefox is better for a thousand reasons. Just give it a try ;) You won't go back.

I have four browsers installed, including Firefox and Chrome. I choose what to use. Don't make me feel bad for using a browser.

Yeah, sure. Feel free to use whatever you want. Much of us have many browsers installed to test our pages.
