Firefox turns into Safari (and a bit in IE and Opera)
It all started with the installation of a widely advertised version of Safari for Windows, with the goal of looking at the new browser's chips. But, unfortunately, all my attempts to use Safari gave me various errors, however, I got this browser without any problems, which was not possible for everyone. So the miracle of technology, I was able to see only a little bit. And today I came across a number of articles about how to make your favorite fox more apple. In addition, accumulated their thoughts ...
In Safari, the Update and Stop buttons are combined; this effect can be achieved in several ways. First, you can use the addition of Stylish , for which there is a “style” we need. And you can put a plugin , I can not vouch for this option, because I use the first one.
Now let's move on to private surfing, which is announced as another cool feature. A similar functionality in the fox is implemented by the Stealther plugin. When it works, history, cookies and other violators of anonymity are not saved. I do not know how much this function is demanded, to be honest.

This plugin displays the page loading indicator right in the address bar. I used it for a long time when I was sitting on a dial-up, now somehow the need has disappeared.
In order to get text input fields (textarea, in simple terms), there are as many as three options. The easiest is to install a script (bookmarklet) for this purpose. The second option is a script for Greasemonkey. Immediately make a reservation that it is not the only one - you can delve into userscripts.org, there are others there. The third option is a plugin .
A few words about RSS. If you prefer to work with news feeds in the browser, then you can use the Sage plugin. For online viewing definitely - Google Reader.
He himself used the opera for some time, then switched to the fox. I liked one feature - the ability to set the mode of loading images. You can choose: "All images", "Only from this site", "Only from cache", "Do not load images". In theory, the plugin saves traffic, who has this problem. But it's more important to me that in the “Only from this site” mode, he nails graphic ads that AdBlock skips.
The only thing that is in IE and what is not in Firefox is IE itself :) You can solve the problem by installing IE Tab .
In the comments I am waiting for more useful links to the topic covered in the post. :)
