Poll: What browser do you primarily use?

4 points by nonchalance on Oct 10, 2013 | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments

Wikimedia data (http://stats.wikimedia.org/archive/squid_reports/2013-06/SquidReportClients.htm) suggests that Chrome has a solid lead in terms of usage. I wonder what the HN community uses.

Note: Since these polls let you choose multiple options, please restrict to one mobile-based browser and one desktop browser

Firefox with NoScript most of the time, Chrome for the very few sites that don't work with that combination even after all the NoScript permissions have been given, Internet Explorer for micosoft.com and applying for jobs when I can't risk browser incompatibility.

Chromium for testing, etc.
