What are Sup Forums's reason why they still use firefox? What extension or feature still keeps you around?
For me it's the extension "watch with mpv" which allows me to open video links with mpv. For some reason chrome doesn't allow addons like this so i'm stuck with firefox ;_;

Yeah, the youtube-dl+mpv combo is unbeatable. I use Open With instead of Watch with MPV though, I like it better because of the context menu integration.
I use Chromium portable a lot too, for when Firefox decides to start stuttering while playing HTML5 full-screen videos.
There's some sites Firefox won't load properly, and some other Chromium won't.
Built in bookmark tags.
Tree style tags.
Overall just everytime I use chrome I feel bump into things that look worse or are missing functionality, and then get told to install a million add ons to fix that.
Really don't know how you live without tags for bookmarks.
Also I don't like Chromium's font rendering, so blurry.
It does what I want it to do, and does it well.
>b-b-but Chome does it better
>For some reason chrome doesn't allow addons like this
They use to but remove the functionality because they thought it could be used as a vector to get malware on the end user's computer.
Fucking sucks that they got rid of it.
The main reason i use iceweasel is because i enjoy muh privacy.
Also:
Open with MPV is based.
for me it's vimperator because the vimperator-like addon on chrome is a cheap imitation.
Even with the same add-ons, I can't stand WebKit/Blink. It's dogshit.
because I can get it to look not awful with a custom CSS
github.com
This is one of them.
this, when iceweasel dies icecat will be my choice. or epiphany.

is there more?
Because there's nothing better despite how shit it has became.
no better browser exists at the moment. chromium based ones are all crap with shit video hardware decoding and generally clunky UIs.

Tree Style Tab
#1 best Firefox extension
I hate browsing without tree tabs now
>Overall just everytime I use firefox I feel bump into things that look worse or are missing functionality, and then get told to install a million add ons to fix that.
ftfy
I think they are working on build in version of it IIRC
I'm stuck with Firefox due to the addons I use.
They are, but it will be just like other Vertical Tab extensions. No Tree
jesus bro why so many addons
>4 addons for DE/OS integration
>2 addons doing the same thing
>flash cancer enabler
>front-end for minimum text size setting
>addon just to remove a menu element
this is one of the reasons why I stopped using firefox
important poll
>not having switched to gnu icecat
I also recently discovered the magic of uMatrix - In conjunction with uBlock Origin, it replaces AdBlock+RequestPolicy+NoScript+SelfDestructingCookies.
I also use Add To Search Bar and Rikaisama.
Please help. Just built this shit, everything is powering up im at the stage where I want to install Windows from my usb. My monitor is not receiving any signal though , any ideas ? Tried taking the gpu out and plugging hdmi straight to mobo but still just the same...
Because I hate white het cis males and firefox supports a cool social justice agenda
Best browser.
Reliable.
Fast.
No botnet.
Great customization.
...
Is there any way to fix this? I love Firefox's font rendering
addons for DE/OS integration
What 4? I count 2 (3 if you count Ubuntu Modifications).
addons doing the same thing
Which 2?
For me it's Save Image in Folder
addons.mozilla.org
Seriously, I can't browse without this anymore.
Mostly Roomy Bookmars Toolbar and DownThemAll!
But a bit part is also the bookmark bar itself, the only worthwhile alternative, Chromium, has a totally unusable bookmarks toolbar so I'm kinda stuck with FF.
1. I'm a SJW
2. Firefox is what I'm used to
3. Chrome is botnet and leaks memory like a bullet-riddled sieve
...
Is there a decent MPC alternative? That sounds really useful to have.
>not using NoScript
>flash game maximizer
:^)
>hating your life
i have an old pc think first call of duty age and it's the best browser for a slow pc
still like opera 12 the most,dammit why did they turn it into a shit chrome clone

Have fun. You'll need an account to save progress
pfff I was hoping for some h-games
It's really fun though. I'm at account level 73. Not even kidding.
>ninjakiwi.com
Noice :^) I though I'm the only one here playing it
Don't ublock and noscript do the same thing?
not even close
You can filter javascript with ublock, though.
Not really. uMatrix is more of a NoScript replacement if you want. These would not however replace uBlock/ABP's functionality.
>flash game maximizer
Where is this?
Asking for a friend
Bretty good customization, but it's god damn slow & laggy. Currently checking Chrome Canary 64-bit - well it's definitely blazing fast in comparison to my FF installation with pretty much the same extension set.
based sdt bro
IceCat: HTTPS-Everywhere, Open With, uBlock Origin, uMatrix, VimFx. All through a VPN. Is there a better solution?
I don't. It wants to be a crappier chrome these days. I use Pale Moon because like half my add-ons don't even work in FF anymore.
being able to turn off all botnet in about:config
can't really do that in the google chrome settings
>10 second start from SSD
Why people still using this shit?
its unarguably better than other browsers
Mostly this. It's not just the extensions, it's being able to change the behavior of the browser to your liking.
But in terms of extensions, downthemall, keefox and menu filter come to mind. I know there are other keepass extensions for chrome, but the ones I tried didn't integrate very well and required additional user input.3
You can't fix it, it is caused by sandboxing.
>thinks people will take his b8
bitch pls, it doesnt take half that on a regular hdd
remove the kebab virus and try again
>"unbeatable"
not, really, no.
download youtube as mp4 userscript + mpv works better than that for me
Still the best web browser. It has only gotten better in the last few years
youtube-dl has compatibility for shiton of sites and a lot of useful functionality. It's got a lot of useful shit like controlling the max bit rate when you download files.
rg3.github.io
With the "Open With" You can basically create your own hotkeys, and userscript.
Chrome is unusable if you have more than 30 or so tabs open. Maybe it can be fixed with an addon but meh
Vertical Tabs
Configurable UI using CSS
I still use Firefox because nobody on Sup Forums will confirm whether I can import my NoScript whitelist in uMatrix.
I don't know a whole lot about browsers. I've almost always used Firefox. I know there's a lot of different versions of it though.
I like the addons and themes I can get. Using the classic theme is great.
Just reinstalled everything. How do you turn off the crap in Firefox? Hello, Pocket, Reader+, etc. The old methods don't work for Pocket at least.
I'm thinking of just switching to Chromium after using Firefox for 10+ years.
