Browser bread

Hello Sup Forumsents,

I happened upon an old netbook of mine and would like to know what a best low memory browser for it would be.

In the meanwhile let's discuss what browsers we use and fall into the standard back and forth >muh Chrome >muh Firefox >muh botnet discussion.

>what a best low memory browser for it would be.
Chrome, I'm not even joking.

>He unjokingly recommends Chrome

What's so funny about that?

All the browser apps are shit and pale moon is the worst

I've never been a huge fan of Chrome, sorry.
That's fine, I just like the logo.
Your response wasn't very constructive, but thanks for the bump.

Emacs 25 is getting a webkit browser, I'll have no need for firefox after that.

Hex wolle YouTube recommend crome it google ultron is out there? Its what NASA uses!

Its more or less working.

How much longer till it's stable enough for the emacs 25 release?

idk, as far as I've seen into this itseems usable at least. You can download the addon and try it your self. emacswiki.org/emacs/WebKit

the woolyss build of chromium without the Google Sync, WebRTC & Widevine is pretty spicy, IF you tweak the privacy settings & add a few autist addons

Lynx

>not browsing the Web through emacs

PM rarely goes above 1GB for me with moderate browsing and minimal addons, but there are probably better options for weaker hardware.

>not using superior elinks

Why do you even live?

I'm waiting for the graphical browser in emacs 25 to come out before I switch. Sorry, but a cli browser just doesn't cut it.

Low memory, eh?
I recommend d+ (Dillo for Windows), QtWeb, or Opera 12.16/7. You're not going to use extensions on a netbook.

>using memescript

As much as I hate JavaScript, it's time to accept the web relies on it. Almost all the web simply won't work without it.

Also, you can't post here without JavaScript

Fuck no, absolute waste of money.

This is relevant to my interests.
I just installed gentoo on an old laptop and chromium wouldn't compile because of memory issues. I'm installing qupzilla now, might try midori later once qupzilla finishes compiling.

Anybody else use a browser that isn't chrome or firefox?

I used Palemoon for a bit, but it could only play videos on Youtube at 240p for whatever reason. Ended up caving and getting Firefox because nothing else was quite what I needed.

It's pretty frustrating that to browse the fucking www at all painlessly I need 8Gb ram and can only choose between one of two browsers. Javascript and web artisans are ruining the www.

I use LeechCraft as a secondary browser. It's kind of a throw everything including the kitchen sink kind of approach that may not be for you, but the browser portion itself is pretty fast.

Yea, that looks like emacs approach to things, what's your primary? why do you use leechcraft?
