I have noticed that newer releases of Chrome browser on Linux tend to be buggier than Firefox. I have never noticed obvious issues with Firefox on Linux. I have had issues uploading photographs on Ebay with Chrome and some web-sites don't work properly with Chrome. Perhaps this is because website developers tend to test with IE and Firefox but not with Chrome.
