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.
