Omniweb was the first Mac OS X browser. I remember using it on a Mac OS X Server back in '99 or 2000, because it was the only option back then. I've never used Omniweb on another Mac and I don't believe it's widely used.
I use Firefox as my primary browser and Camino as my third browser on my Macs. (Safari is my secondary.)
Thanks for your reply, Bo. I use 1Password for password / security management and I think 1P used to support Omni; whatever I use for a secondary needs to be supported by them.
Call me silly, but I just have this thing against Firefox. I've never used it because something about the UI just makes me grumpy. I don't know if it's a Windoze look, or what.
I like the look of Camino, but 1P is not supporting them going forward, so that's a dead end.
I use it and love it - best use of resources and I like the way it handles tabbed browsing. I miss type to find, and it doesn't handle autofill well at all, but other than that, its a great browser. I find most OS X browsers bloat after a time of being open (~20 tabs, open for a month), but not Omniweb - very well coded.
Never a huge fan of Firefox on a Mac (fav on Windows though) - I found it bloated and Camino is an OS X native alternative - a faster option but it has limited extensions and like stated above, developmentally dead now.
Thank you all for your responses! I looked at iCab and it's way above my technical pay grade, lol.
I'm going to check that 1Password still supports Omni; if so, I will give it a try.
