Been having a lot of weird chit happening the last few weeks using chrome. Might even be the reasons some of my compositions for posting here get zapped.
Back on Firefox now. She's like an old lady compared to chrome, but if she does the job.....

some people are like slinkys, not really good for anything, but still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
FF seems to be working fine although noticeably slower. The last straw with chrome was having to type the first letter of most of my comments on FB, twice.
Is there any other browser OTHER than Firefox that is worth a shit?
Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.
I was happy with chrome for about 6 months, even with the initial oddities, like the pop up description bars on mouse hover covering the spot I wanted to click.
Chrome is quite noticeably faster than FF.
Your experience with Chrome pretty much echoes my own. I also switched back to Firefox even though it's a bit slower—too many irritating idiosyncrasies with Google's browser effort.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Either system beats IE any day of the week.

Well, there is Opera and Safari. Just saying.
I like Chrome. It crashes sometimes, usually a Flash idiosyncracy. However I use IE, Chrome, FF, and Safari. Sometimes all at once, so I can have multiple issues with multiple browsers.

I find Chrome to be pretty stable.. are you all running the stable or beta version? I'm running the beta version, there are updates almost daily.. they're always tweaking/adding/changing -- if you are patient & understanding (a tall order for the OP), there is something to be said for being part of a community that is rapidly developing new features. When you think you've discovered a bug, report it, don't complain to a group of people who can't do anything about it. :P
I use a lot of Google apps, Gmail/Docs/G+ and Chrome does work much much better with their own stuff.. obviously.
I have tried them all I think. I keep coming back to FF, though I am irritated by their "accelerated" update policy which seems to involve pushing a new version on me every few minutes -- well, maybe that is a bit of an exaggeration, but too frequently for my wants. I have an array of add-ons I like and depend on and the updates often render them hors d'combat for varying periods.
Don't like Chrome after struggling to use it for a while. I like Safari, but am not sure it is really Winnderized fully (I am not on a Mac). IE9 works all right, but is not as versatile as FF.
Perhaps it is just that I am so acclimated to FF that the others are being unfairly judged. Ye pays ye money and takes ye choose.
