POPS10 Alternative Web Browsers for Ubuntu Linux Posted on March 30th, 2010 While Firefox is arguably still the champion of Linux web browsers, it has a history of being slow and getting bogged down by sites like Facebook. As a result, the Linux browser market has never been more full of competition. If you’re looking for a break from Firefox, there’s probably an alternative browser out there for you. I've just installed Arora on my Linux system, and compared to the Firefox browser which I've been using for nearly a year, I highly recommend it. It is super-fast loading pages, it's very light and it looks exactly like my Firefox with all my FF addons. There's no discernible difference except for Arora's superior performance. It's actually an 'unbranded' Firefox browser and it works on Windows, Mac OS X and other systems as well. The other two browsers I posted also work on Windows, as I had used them on my XP machine.
