Why is this browser so shit now?

Why is this browser so shit now?

Why do they want me to switch to (((chrome))) so badly?

What's the best browser for privacy, and compatible with 4chanX? I'm adverse to change but firefox is now the biggest piece of shit ever.

vivaldi.

use brave. now shut up.

ungoogled chromium
removes all the jewgle from chrome, makes it a pretty decent browser
iridiums pretty much the same thing, but i still preffer UGC

Edge... lel

Pale Moon is a good alternative, but you'll need to edit the configuration to install AdNauseam. If you don't know, simply type about:config into the address bar, and raise the extension.block.level to 3.
For privacy? I don't know... I guess GNU IceCat would be a decent middle ground between Tor and a standard browser.

I do hope they fix it soon.
It is a lot slower now and more memory consumptive..

What's edgy about not wanting one company to own the internet?

Firefox or waterfox with Random Agent Spoofer and privacytools.io config and addons

check leak at panopticlick.eff.org

Edge is a fucking browser you retard.

I think he means Microsoft Edge.

if you configure firefox properly and use the right add-ons you will have the most secure browser for win/mac.

I seem to beling to an interesting minority that has been using Opera for YEARS.

Works like a charm.

>memory consumptive

It's ridiculous. More than 10 tabs and it starts to lag and crashes. Are they sabotaging themselves?

Use iridium, it's the best version of chrome without google.

Shit, I meant "extensions.blocklist.level"

Use Yandex

> choosing the chinese commie botnet
Use Brave OP.

Try using ESR firefox.

Maxthon. Secure, simple, fast.

It's working pretty well for me, definitely better than that Brave piece of shit that gets shilled here.

If you're very concerned about stuff like open software and such there are a bunch of pretty good forks of Firefox without the crap.

Yes,
Microsoft Edge

ain't using that Russian shit

ain't using that ruski shit

I tried it on machines with 4 or less gigs of ram.
C O M P L E T E T R A S H

i'm having issues too so i'm going to take a risk on you ruskie

ICE CAT

...

Does Brave have anything as simple and elegant as NoScript?

>Microsoft

Not sure I entirely trust them either. Windows pisses me off regularly now.

To be fair, bong is probably still on a wannacry riddled version of Vista

Yup. Firefox is garbage now. Switched to Chrome about a couple months ago.

Chrome is fine. I don't do anything particularly terrible and it now has all the plugins I used to only find on Firefox.

dat dere goeeerg zorro man.. he's a-fucking errwherez, man... dangit... i bet he's even behind.. eh, other shit too and shit..

yeah

fuck him says I

I never had vista. I have 8 now. The previous one was better though. This one is starts loads of shit on start up and takes up 100% memory.

any legith source?

4 gig do they even still sell that new?

Fucking kike. He won't stop until he ruins all nice things, will he?

So its not only me that has problems with firefox , its eating ram like shit , it opens many processes ,addons working like shit , randomly freezing , its like they are doing it on purposse

Do you even pay money for that or did you find it in the trash

It came with my PC. I could have got 7 though.

Waterfox.

What's a good alternative browser to use for PC and the phone that isn't supported and developed by (((them)))? I've started using Con's, and duckduckgo.. I think switching browsers is my next step.

blog.mozilla.org/blog/2017/06/08/increasing-momentum-around-tech-policy/

firefox started going to shit after v4, thats when they started deciding to jump versions for every update. no v4.1, just 5.0, then 6.0. ever since, they've begun taking away basic things and hiding others to the point where you need a plugin like 'classic theme restorer' to get back basic functionality. as of v55-56, its barely recongnizeable unless you go through and set things yourself. if you're going to bother doing all that, use waterfox as your base. waterfox was good as a replacement when there was no 64bit firefox, but now it removes a bunch of bs changes that mozilla pushes.

firefox and the entireplatform is on its way out though. it wants to be chrome so bad that they forgot why people prefer the open browser compared to googshit which cant even fully block ads.

some plugins you want:
-classic theme restorer
-decentraleyes
-ghostery
-https everywhere
-noscript
-random agent spoofer
-ublock origin

palemoon

pale moon with ask jeeves.
ice cat.brave.firefox. chrome.

searx.me is cooler than duckduckgo imo.

Chrome can't use adblock? Really makes ya think.

install gentoo

I want Save Image in Folder and proxy plugins.

There are dozens of browsers that aren't (((chrome))). Sure 99% of people never heard of most of them but if you invest like 20 minutes of your time you can easily find a browser that would suit you.

Thanks. Good to know that I should stop using any mozilla products

i used firefox for many years but i recently switched because it has memory leak or something that i have put up with for far too long. and they started becoming politically involved which i cannot accept.

>Firefox is the best ever since multiprocess being fully implemented

Are you perhaps on an old version of Firefox? All I see is people complaining about shit and never saying why.
There is not a single thing other browsers do better than Firefox.

Also, won't all these plugins just make firefox even laggier and slower? Think I'm just gonna ditch it.

Honestly this is Hubris. If its electric and you can input data into its impossible to safeguard. This is what we call "Security Theater". The safer you think it is the more of a hnypt it probably is. Everything has had multiple backdoors since at least the late eighties...

Safari is fucking based.

it can stop you from seeing them, but can't block the ad from loading. they still load in the background and thus register as a hit. google won't allow any ad blocker for chrome to work low level enough to actually stop the ad from ever touching the browser.

no. if anything, blocking stuff stops unwanted things from loading and might reduce your browser usage a bit. it probably doesn't make a big difference usage wise.

Do you know any good portable browser to use at work from pendrive?

portableapps.com has a bunch including firefox

IceCat is breddy gud.

Been using this pos since 1.0.
Using version 37 something now. Every time I update this shit I have to spend a day or more on unfucking it, retaining about 90% of the functionality I had before updating, with no noticeable improvement in how the browser functions.

>went to chromium
>google removed the H264 support
>went to (((chrome)))
>now if i have a lot of tabs open the entire thing compresses and i have to call 000 to get a fucking neurosurgeon down to select one specific tab of porn

chrome is ok

4GB RAM is perfectly acceptable for anything adults use computers for except maybe programming (rendering and etc).

If anything the people buying above 4GB would be rather a minority if it wasn't because it's so cheap people buy it anyways without caring.

No need to get triggered tho, it's just my understanding of normie computing.

>Open Society Foundations Leadership in Government Fellowship
no, that does not sound scary at all

that'll happen when you wait 30 versions to update. sometimes they just change things. i was on v54 of waterfox and the update to 55 fucked over nearly everything. took a day of puttering with shit to get it fixed again. its a pain but you probably spend more time in your browser than you do your car, its worth spending the time to unfuck it.

Use brave.

waterfox

disable adnauseam for a couple of hours and see if the crashes stop
it literally caused my browser to start crashing, especially on wikia sites

might try this lookin at the site looks good. anyone else use it?

Actually, Firefox barely has any of the first generation staff that built it left.

They actually have high turnover of CTOs which isn't a good thing since those CTOs spent many years at Firefox.

If only Microsoft just forked Firefox

They're about to ruin it completely with 57. The addon functionality was one of the best things about it. I'm either going to have to switch to an alternative or just not update.

This.

No. It is not.8 GB or you will be dog slow closing windows and doing ordinary shit. Wal Mart has great deals on refurbished 8 GB thinkpads with God tier batter life especially if you buy a bigger one than default for the price of a 4 gig piece of shit you will hate

>that'll happen when you wait 30 versions to update.

20~ updates in 2.5 years
How many of those would break my shit? How many of them are minor or major? In the end it's too much fucking work. How many % of addons are permanently lost every major update?

>Firefox like
Waterfox
IceCat(Linux)

>Chrome like
ungoogled chromium
Vivaldi
Brave

There is no right and wrong here, all of them are decent choices.

Chrome is targeted by the most agressive advertisers whose ads act like malware.

Gorhill, the creator of Ublock Origin, does not recommend Chrome if you want to escape from being targeted by advertisers.

Instart Logic problems exists only in Chrome/ium based browsers, not in Firefox so people who use Firefox don't need to worry about what I mentioned in my post.

However, for people in this thread who use Chrome or Chrome based browsers, Ublock Origin is not enough to block
Instart Logic's tactics and you're gonna need to install uBO-Extra, A companion extension to uBlock Origin: to gain ability to foil early anti-user mechanisms working around content blockers or even a browser privacy settings.

Because of all these facts, I don't recommend you guys using Chrome.

...

Go back to Sup Forums, faggot

K using this now, see how it goes. Sweet I could import everything.

not that often to be honest. and in most cases you can force the plugin to run anyways and its fine. some versions do break things though like i used my own install as an example, and that was a single version change. i'd update soon though to 55 or 56 since it sounds like they're about to ruin it even further.

use the FEBE plugin and you can export your entire firefox stuff (which will also be importable for waterfox, pale moon) including plugins, history, bookmarks, everything. so even if an install goes bad you can install your old version and re-import the old settings just as they were.

Why is waterfox compromised while Icecat isn't? What I read about them they seems similar to me by using firefox source as base.

Waterfox with:

- canvas defender
- cookie shield (cookies disabled in browser itself, allow necessary ones manually)
- decentraleyes
- no script
- smart HTTPS
- ublock origin
- umatrix

I also use Palemoon if I can't get a page to load.

Learn how to make your own fork, because WF will probably be pozzed eventually, too.

>opera
>proprietary botnet
How?
Legit question.

CYBERFOX MOTHERFUCKER!!!

I literally just switched after I read the thread about soros buying out mozilla and making firefox censor "fake news".

Not only is it identical to firefox but it's twice as fast, and accepts all of the same addons and extensions such as adguard to stop adds and pop ups. And I'm just using the 32 bit version, not the 64 version.

You might want to give Waterfox a try, just google/bing/whatever and find out which one is the best one for you.

Remember, firefox is an open source web browser. So you can still have firefox without mozilla and soros.

Will try. After I find a portable version of Waterfox.

Waterfox is already noticeably quicker/no lag

thanks guys

It's closed source?

>Remember, firefox is an open source web browser. So you can still have firefox without mozilla and soros.


THIS 1 IS 4 SO 8 IMPORTANT 8

This is good bait.

You can find that on the download page of Waterfox

waterfox has more addons than current build firefox, so you should look out for those

>waterfoxproject.org/downloads
>Waterfox 55.0.2 Portable

And?
Is there actual evidence?

Also pain in the ass to use. I used it for maybe 6 months but it was too much hassle updating the browser and ten different add ons to watch youtube etc
tl;dr Sounds good, doesn't work

FF team now focuses more on diversity, multigenderism, sjwism and working with soros on censoring internet than providing good browser.

Using palemoon atm, works ok. Brave also works ok, imho built in adblocker isnt as good as ublock origin. Both are significantly faster than ff.

Because they hired a bunch of diversity developers and the code is a literal mess now.

Never diversity hire when it comes to development.

Thanks for hitting me up senpai.

Reminder, more is not always better, you are just making your browser fingerprint more unique. But it is true that if you want more privacy, you should probably use tor browser (another reminder, tor community is infested with sjws, liberals, progressives or whatever commies call themselves these days).
