Now that Midori is no longer crashy, is it the best lightweight browser available?
>Fully supports modern web browsing
>doesn't have an outdated 90s ui
>5 tabs(Including facebook and youtube) and it is only using 303Mb ram
My specs are
>D2500 dual core inte Atom
>4GB DDR3 RAM
>HD5450 Graphics
For anyone wondering why CPU usge is so high.
What are some other alternatives out there?
Another browser that runs pretty well is opera, but tha uses much more ram.
>Now that Midori is no longer crashy, is it the best lightweight browser available?
No.
>What are some other alternatives out there?
Chrome/Chromium/Canary if you're not poor, Firefox and other FF Forks if you're poor.
nope IE is still the best
Those aren't lightweight.
I just finished installing elementary OS on an old laptop that's prone to over heating and I'm actually surprised by how well it's handling it.
They are if you're not poor.
I know right, It's one of the few browsers that doesn't choke my CPU
I bet you're so rich, you must be a millionaire, that explains why you feel the need to brag aout it on an anonymous image board
Until your clock disappears one day and you'll have to reinstall the OS to get it back.

That didn't even make sense
You'll see soon enough.

BTW this "fix" didn't fix it on my machine.
Oh.
Arc Theme pretty much deprecates Elementary OS.

If you want lightweight, just install Fifth or Min and get it over with.
But how functional are they?
What a great browser
That depends on the user. If your baseline is text-based browsers, they're plenty functional. Anyway, just give them a try at least. People don't go browser shopping that much.
Don't even bother with it on Windows, it crashes as much as Arora. Even Qupzilla is no good on Windows.
Being rich and not being able to do more than a poor person doesn't sound very flattering

To the trash bin it goes, midoshill.
testing overheating with Sup Forums xDDDDD
Open a site with fucking videos and shit, faggot

Chromium users everybody
Give me a real browser that isn't another os, you piece of shit faggot.
It's in the OP, you fucking dunce
Also

>consumes more memory than a "whole OS" browser while not even capable of having a custom UI layout
you actually got me. I'm sorry I called you a piece of shit faggot.
really, what would be good alternative for windows?
No need to apologize, just doing my part in helping you get out of the closet.

good browser
thanks :)

>Midori is no longer crashy
>citation needed
>Firefox and other FF if you're poor
Not sure if I get that logic. Doesn't Firefox eat up way more RAM than Chrome?
what distro/de?
Using fedora 24, xfce and firefox and without anything open (excluding small startup applications) I'm on approx. 900mb already. 2 Sup Forums tabs on firefox are using another 400mb.
>tfw nowadays programs just abort() when malloc() fails
No, that's just a meme, Chrome is way bloatier
>tfw you can't rice Chrome
Only reason I don't use Chrome tbhdesu.
Firefox is slow as fuck but I use it anyway.
I installed elementaryOS on my mother's laptop because it's somehow easier to use for her than Windows.
However, when something is fucked, everything is fucked. I remember the terror of getting the fucking Dropbox icon to work.
Well, it doesn't crash on my pc?
Hasn't crashed once in the 3 days I've used it
go and play some youtube shit, it will die.
Better yet, open a couple of programs in different desks and move around the desks. It will burn like the sun.
As much as I thought too that elementary was really nice out of the box it's shit and unastable. Later on shit will dissappear or you won't be able to listen to music or some other crap.
I like Midori, it just feels too cramped, but it was always fast and ran well on my dead hardware. I use Pale Moon now, and it runs great, and looks great on a Pentium Dual Core with 4gb ddr2. Much better on startup than chrome.

Does it support html5? Flash?
YouTube works fine? Sup Forums captcha works fine?
Those were the main issue I've had with lightweight browsers
supports html5
no flash integrated
youtube with html5(standard) works fine
Yes,

This.
So much this.
>Midori is no longer crashy
Biggest lie of 2016
OP here.
It hasn't crashed yet on my pc.
What's your os?
Can confirm, mine isn't crashing either
still has retarded scroll speed
There really isn't one.
I'd say Opera Presto, however it's old software so don't expect everything to be compatible
I use Otter Browser, QtWeb, and LeechCraft for that niche.
I dont use it because I can't get it to render moonrunes, same problem with chromium
How's that?
Mine scrolls normal
Does it support hidpi?
Yep, but it looks like hidpi has some issues after a Google Search.
Give it a try though, it was a 7MB download for me
It's pretty close (FF on the left for comparison) but you can see there's a few gotchas still. Sup Forums rendered fine at least.

Thanks for the comparison.
Midori really seems like a great lightweight browser, hopefully they get it just as functional as chrome or opera
Guys, loving midori so far, but I'm having one issue that's a killer for me.
playtak.com isn't working, can anyone test it? I usually play on my laptop but a bigger screen is nicer to use
>no link to source
Happens quite often on 32 bit machines.
Try this, it's basically Chrome OS with an installer, so far it has worked great on older machines.
Best looking that's for sure.

Ew.
Looks like I'm sticking with midori.
Why is it so thicc?
It's not for me, but I'm sure it's slightly different on every distro.
Can you adjust it in preferences?
