  1. The design is so thin and blue and flimsy! I want toolbars, things to tell me how loaded a page is and I want it to stop giving me popups!

    1. @sarramore Have you considered Opera? It's basically made of toolbars.

      1. @ceruleanspark Opera! NO, I can't stand it! The only people who can use it are paid to understand it! Even then, they struggle sometimes.

        1. @sarramore It's not THAT bad. (Note: I'm officially crazy. I have a doctors note and everything)

      1. @ceruleanspark What?

        1. @sarramore Well, it turns out that headphones don't make good protection against multiple contradictory browser toolbars.

          1. @ceruleanspark Ill trust you on that.. But Chrome doesn't have a toolbar

            1. @sarramore No, it doesn't. The philosophy of its design is that the page should be the only thing you're seeing. (because more page means more ads for google.)

              1. @ceruleanspark And that is why I have toolbars, they have popupblockers and add blockers and stop me from seeing google's advertising. Chrome, advertises itself whilst you use it and disrupts browsing.

                1. @sarramore Well, Chrome does have an extension for inline adblocking and blocks popups by default. Have you considered Firefox? It seems like a good fit for you.

                  1. @ceruleanspark Firefox is the best, but microsoft keeps IE as my default. So I live with it. Then switch to firefox when IE prevents me from doing stuff.
