The other one is Opera I think.

Why no Netscape or Android Browser pony? I mean uTorrent and Steam got ponies too :V

Some techie brony also needs to create a Hypercard pony.

I think I've seen a netscape one. No Android pony yet though.

I know Firefox, IE, Chrome, and Opera, other one?

Safari? First time hear about this.

@DC: Safari is the current browser of Apple.

Safari sucks.

Opera is the browser of Nintendo stuff so that's how I know it.

Safari isn't bad at all, IMO. It lacks the addons that FF has, but it rarely breaks anything, and is pretty fast, at least it is on a Mac, where it comes standard. I've never used it on Windows.

#221834 CDRW Tue, 12th Jun '12 10:22:43 AM

Dunno about all the performance stuff. All I know is that it's incredibly user-unfriendly. The interface has tons of minor, but irritating quirks. The big one I remember off-hand being that you can't go into private browsing using hotkeys.

Well, iirc the Mac OS version of Safari is superior to the Windows version. I still prefer the Android Browser to iOS Safari, better-proportioned buttons and superior bookmark controls. Also, it renders the Watchlist mini-icons correctly and doesn't mess up avatars.

OS-tans came first, but we can ponify them now

What if those browser ponies in that campfire picture were the ones who brought the Internet to Equestria? As in, the ones who make it not only possible for the ponies to post on this forum, but all the other fanworks that imply that the ponies are using the Internet, like those "ask a pony" blogs.

@Rainbow. That...actually makes sense. This is now a fact.

#221839 Death Cloud Tue, 12th Jun '12 10:27:51 AM from Horsehead Nebula

Opera is quite popular browser, at least in Polish internet.

Article in computer magazine what confined me to quit FF placed Opera in first place of browsers.

I choose Chrome :I

I used to use Firefox. Then it broke for no reason so I use Chrome now.

And somebody write that fic about the internet ponies.

I stay loyal to Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape. It has been trusty with me since I started out with Netscape 4.77 waaaaay back in the day.

Now picturing Netscape as a comet-and-stars Unicorn with her trusty Mozilla dragon assistant and a little Gecko buddy.

I remember Netscape had a really cool search engine that let you exclude keywords from a search with just a click. Great for when you were searching something that might turn up a lot of porn as collateral damage.

Edit: All the hurdles are leapt and they're going ahead with the printing of Fallout Equestria. I should have my books by the end of August.

Really, it had a preemptive blacklist filter? I never took advantage of that because I sat down and learned some of the search-term modifiers manually back in the day, it's why my search-engine-fu is good.

Totally calling it, Firemane has a diary she calls the Book of Mozilla :3

Hey everyone. I woke up all excited about playing some starcraft 2 today. Then I found out today was the start of a new season. So I played my placement match, won really well, and somehow got dropped down 29 rankings. This is not cool. I really should not be in bronze league anymore, I beat gold players regularly!

/end rant.

Btw, does anyone other than my parents still actually use Internet Explorer?

A whole bunch of behind-the-times-don't-invest-in-them businesses stubbornly stick to IE 6 and refuse to modernize.

Early adopters trying out the Release Preview of Windows 8 are using IE 10.

I use Internet Explorer just to change my avatar here on the TV Tropes forums. For some reason, Firefox won't let me do that.

The Eleventh Doctor is cool.

@Blue I use it because I don't feel like getting a different one and it suits my needs well enough.

People who never use their computers for more than generic web browsing and word processing still use IE (read: 90% of people with a PC).
