Re: Why Firefox instead of Safari

I just downloaded Firefox because I was having trouble accessing a
blog. I tried Firefox to see if Safari was the problem. Firefox had
the same problem.

While I've got it on my system, why do some of y'all prefer Firefox
over Safari?

My single biggest complaint with Safari is its lack of cookie
management. I can either take them all, reject them all, or accept only
cookies from sites I navigate to (rejecting those from advertisers, for
instance). I don't just *want* more cookie control, I *demand* greater
control over which ones I allow or reject.

I also like that I have somewhat better control over my tabs in Firefox.
