When diving into the browsers war, often times you will hear that using the browser you prone won’t do anything good. This argument is often used to trample new Opera users, the argument being that it is not worth it to use a browser, however more sophisticated it is, that isn’t widely supported. To these users, often promoting the use of Mozilla Firefox, using a browser does not necessarily augment its support, but I beg to differ.
Actually, the reality is all contrary. If you believe Opera to be superior to Firefox, for instance, then use it and make others use it. The more people use it, the bigger the usage statistic will be on people’s web sites, and the bigger the incentives will be to support it. For instance, on one of my web sites, AMV-Canada, I used not to care for the JavaScript window bug that happened on Google Chrome in early 2009. But, as more users used Chrome to access my web site, it became a major browser there and I was forced to change my strategy to provide complete support for Chrome, whether I liked it or not.
So yes, despite what some might say, using a browser for its sake does have an impact. You’re only 1 person to do so, but if you don’t, who else is going to?
