Is it worth it? Are we about to enter into another Battle of the Browsers?
For those hiphoppers out there look what I found on Craigslist.

I certainly think it's worth it. Seriously, 1.0b1 is fast and stable. Totally worth checking out.

have they incorporated Firefox's RSS stuff yet?
thats the one thing holding me back from adopting Camino full time.

Best browser on Mac OS X. If they incorporated RSS I doubt I'd use Safari until it went 3.0.

Chimera / Camino was once my preferred browser, and it holds a special place in my heart. I always check up on updates and noticed that this release actually slowed quite a bit from previous builds. Anyone find the same?

I tried it out for 2 days and wasn't so impressed I would drop Opera. All I want is a fast browser and so far that's been the quickest. Also, there is no RSS in Camino. I really wanted Camino to be the one but it was too slow.

Does it has support Firefox extensions? That's kind of a deal breaker for me.

I've tried both the official release and the optimized builds -- why does even a freshly launched Camino use more memory than a three-day-old Opera when there's so much less functionality?
I'd like to switch to a Cocoa-based browser, but one that's fast and usable. :(

I agree on the extensions. I'll never go without Adblock again.

What are the advantages of/differences between Camino over Deer Park?

This gets a big "meh" from me. Camino is nice, but since it uses the same exact WebKit engine as Safari, I don't see the point.
I like Firefox precisely because it doesn't use Mac OS X's webkit. Sometimes Camino gets really slow if I have a lot of Safari pages loaded while using other Webkit applications (like Acquisition)

Camino will always be hard to switch to as it's compared to Firefox, but it's not even close to Firefox. It's still missing important features (rss and spellcheck) and without them it'll be hard to convert a lot of people. To bad too as it's great little browser.

Navypoo, wherever did you get the impression Camino uses Webkit? Have you ever actually *used* Camino, or are you just posting to hear yourself talk? Your post made approximately zero sense.
Camino is Firefox done right, if you ask me. Which isn't to say Firefox is bad, just different. If I wanted to run Windows XP apps, I would have bought a Windows box.

" I agree on the extensions. I'll never go without Adblock again."
I know this post is old enough that probably nobody is reading the comments at this point, but I thought I'd mention that Camino has built-in ad blocking. So there's no need for an Adblock extension for it.

I've been enjoying the cocoa goodness of Camino for many builds now, but its staying relatively in the shadows has NOT been good for its development. Not only are there far more bell and whistle useful plug ins for firefox, but it is also much easier to automatically install them in firefox. That is the main area where Camino needs to work on parity with firefox.
Which is a shame, because there are advantages to being cocoa native. But even amongst mac users it seemed there were 20 people celebrating firefox for every person that even knew Camino existed. Whappened?
