Chrome brings up that stupid "Aw snap!" graphic with the dead box all too frequently.

Firefox gives me the lowest frequency of that type of crap possibly because they concentrated on building a great browser rather than trying to drive you to websites which promote a lefty worldview or line their pockets.

At one time, there was a great little browser called Opera, but haven't seen it lately. Anybody know what happened to them?

Agreed, as i often have about 60 tabs open, being able to have multiple tabs rows, and reduce the width, both of which the TabMixPlus extension allows, and more, is a big help, thanks be to God for those make such.

Couple this with the NOIA theme (which under Windows allows you to change the color), anf the Colrfuil themes extension, and i can have about 18 identifiable tabs in each row.

Also of note to FR FF users, if you select text and r. clk and choose view selection source, and copy it (wait a big for it to be selected) then you can past it in the post box add it will show up as copied.

IE is kinda like government issue/socialism, with almost no customization allowed, and Chrome is better but still lacks (and many have called for multiple tabs rows, to no avail).

But for light browsing they will do.
