Camino 1.1b - Now With Session Saving Built In

Everytime a new version of camino is released, I try my best to use it and enjoy it, but always find myself crawling back to Firefox.

It's the little things really, like no dialog boxes for downloading files, lack of a few extensions I use in FireFox (nothing big like greasemonkey which is a niche extension anyway).

Like a few other posters have said, and I'm in the same boat, I always go back to Firefox (I'm not a big safari fan, it still has issues with some pages and let's face it, firefox is renowned and the support is there from developers).

I'll keep trying future versions until one really gets me excited, but for now, I guess I'm waiting for FF3 which will include the Mac widgets and should make the browsing experience on the mac more "mac-y" and less "windows-y"

#4, Camino 1.1 uses the same version of Gecko that Firefox 2.0 uses, version 1.8.1. Camino 1.0.x uses the same version of Gecko that Firefox 1.5 uses, version 1.8. There are alpha builds of Gecko 1.9 available. These builds pass the Acid 2 test. Camino 2.0 and Firefox 3.0 will use this version.

I'm glad to see Camino is just getting up to speed with firefox of a year ago.

If Camino could offer just half the tab functionality that you can get in Firefox, I'd be all over it.

Until then I'm sticking with FF, despite all the other things I dislike about it...

Camino is my second best browser. When Safari makes me mad I take Camino. I'd take Firefox if it wasn't so ugly.

Well that's exelent news, considering Camino crashes weekly on me. Now I won't loose as many web pages!

Isn't Camino based on the older Firefox 1.5 Gecko rendering engine? I mean, it looks great and I've used Camino for a while but I always find myself going back to Firefox for the extensions. I could be mistaken but I thought there was a newer Gecko engine out there that Camino (and Flock and others) don't use yet. Not that it matters, though. Gecko doesn't pass the ACID2 test, anyway.

greasemonkey keeps me tied to firefox.

I remember the days that I used Camino primarily...

I then switched to Safari because I began using a bunch of sites that didn't render correctly in Camino.

I use Camino almost exclusively and I really like it. I'll use Firefox every now and then for their web dev tools, but for all other web use, it's a great browser. I particularly like the fact that it has popup and ad blockers built right in (unlike Firefox, where you have to download plugins).
