Thread: Safari 4
View Single Post
Within reason, I don't care much how my browser looks. OmniWeb, Firefox, and Safari are all acceptable.

Faster is nice, but I'm limited by Internet speed. Also, with it so easy to load commonly viewed sites in the background in OmniWeb's various workspaces, speed is seldom an issue for me with OmniWeb. Safari has nothing like workspaces.

Ad blocking is more thorough in OmniWeb: by URL, but third party, and by size. And where that interferes with rendering a valuable site (my broker, my bank, my clients), I can turn it off site by site by site. Safari has nothing like that.

So far, it seems that Safari STILL cannot save my open windows and tabs between sessions (way behind OmniWeb and even Firefox), even in ONE workspace!

Today I tested migrating my 1500+ bookmarks from OmniWeb to Safari. No problems. So with that escape route available, I'll stick with OmniWeb to the bitter end. For me, Safari and Firefox don't come close.
