Flitterkill October 10, 2013 Share Flitterkill GC Board Member October 10, 2013 The new tab stuff that Google changed a week or two ago? Yeah, that can be disabled. You will be very happy. In Chrome, type about:flags and press enter Find the part that says "Enable Instant Extended API" and change it to Disabled - this will be far down the page, scroll away... Restart your Chrome browser manually or by pressing the "Relaunch Now" button at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloosh October 10, 2013 Share Baloosh Member October 10, 2013 Pro-est Chrome tip of them all: Don't use Chrome. Save the sub-standard HTML browsing for Internet Explorer. Safari and Firefox all day, ever day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill October 10, 2013 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member October 10, 2013 Firefox lost me a few years ago with the slowness and their spectacular failure to fix memory leaks. Haven't looked back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baloosh October 11, 2013 Share Baloosh Member October 11, 2013 Yes, I too base all my future decisions upon a single incident that happened in the past. http://www.ibtimes.com/firefox-vs-chrome-mozilla-takes-top-honors-latest-web-browser-grand-prix-1330329 "It was in the nonperformance categories like memory efficiency, reliability, security and standards conformance that Firefox was really able to shine. Bad page load reliability put Chrome in a pretty distant second place." But feel free to keep making objectively wrong decisions. (Why do I love busting your chops so much, Flitter? I dunno. But I do. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stutters October 11, 2013 Share stutters GC Alumni October 11, 2013 I still use Chrome as my main browser, but Firefox/Mozilla are definitely up to some interesting stuff. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/aurora/ http://www.mozillaopennews.org/ And yeah, they fixed that memory issue and load time a while ago.
