Back to Firefox

Have been using Chrome for a while but before that I was a dedicated Firefox user. Not sure why I switched, but now I know why I am switching back to Firefox:
  • Ctrl+Tab - It is not possible to easily switch to the most recently used tab in Chrome. In Firefox the default behaviour is to switch to the next tab when pressing Ctrl+Tab, but by installing the extension Tab Mix Plus you can change this behaviour.
  • Keyboard shortcuts in Google Docs - Many are simply not working for me in Chrome. E.g. Ctrl+Shift+8 for bullet list.
  • Single window mode - Single window is nice since that makes the restore session more fail safe. Chrome for instance only remembers the last window closed when restoring session. Single window would not be sufficient if you couldn't tile browser windows, which will not work in single window mode in Chrome. But in Firefox there is a plugin for this: Tile Tabs.
One feature that is lacking in Firefox, though, is the ability to move tabs using keyboard shortcuts. E.g. move tab one step left using Ctrl+Shift+PageUp. This was however solved by installing the plugin Move Tabs.
