what are you using instead ?

ungoogled chromium

Do you even get paid for all these posts?

Paid by whom? The recommendation is to uninstall Firefox and use literally anything else. Mozilla are a shit tier company and Firefox is a shit tier browser, so this seems like sound advice.

Everybody needs an imaginary internet success if they can't reach any IRL.

ALready done

What was Firefox?

Fuck off shill
>SJW
>implying every other company isnt filled by them
Browsers should be judged by their merit not by whether the developers are SJWs.
Firefox and its forks are much better than any Google piece of shit. Chrome/chromium are literally the shitties browsers in terms of security and extensions. They're fucking pathetic tbqh

>Firefox and its forks are much better than any Google piece of shit
>slow
>bloated
>better

If i wanted a browser where SessionBuddy is a pointless addon that can't work without the browser and system freezing because Chrome has no tab lazy loading,
i'd install Chrome.
But since i have a Session Manager on Fireshit which won't break my computer when i load sessions of 50 tabs of porn or books or music, i'll stick with it.

>slow
only if you have shitty machine
Most importantly they are more secure therefore better. Chrome is a piece of shit botnet

>only if you have shitty machine

It's literally fucking dogshit.

These tests were done on a Skylake Xeon, 16GB of RAM and a PCI-Express SSD. e10s enabled and dom.ipc.processCount set to 50. Now tell me Firefox isn't slow:

Firecocks is basically the Arma 3 of internet browsers.

I installed Opera and I don't seem to have any problem with it.

get onetab, fool

No thanks OP. I like my vertical tree tabs too much.
The closest thing your Chrome diarrhea has is "Tabs Outliner" which requires donation to unlock full features.
I never knew Chrome users were cucks until i saw this.

Chrome is not secure and has zero cunstomizability. It is the MacOS of browsers.
Enjoy your botnet and unique fingerprint.

So Fagfox is literally "autism: the browser"

Thanks for confirming it

That doesn't resolve the horrid system break when you reload the tabs at once fool.
I'll stick to what works. Fucking faggots at Chrome can't even implement proper resource management into their tab system.

I've been thinking about switching to seamonkey. You still have compatibility with firefox addons and customization, but none of the SJW shit.

>FagFox

fucking REKKKKT

epic

Works on my machine

Your bookmark system is pure puke.
And your solutions for opening videos via external applications are camel shit because "muh security and trust".

>And your solutions for opening videos via external applications are camel shit because "muh security and trust".
So Firefox is in fact less secure than Chrome?

why do you keep remaking this thread

But it still runs on Gecko, which makes it slow like molasses

If by less secure you mean it allows me to actually do some shit with it, then yes.
I'd rather use a car than be only allowed to watch it from the sidelines.

>autism
More like giving a fuck about not having a shitty browser. Enjoy being a homosexual
Chrome is literally /lgbt/-tier
I bet you're browsing on a Mac right now faggot

Until there is a usable equivalent to tree style tabs on Chromium, I'm not switching.

Just paste the link into your precious console, like livestreamer chaturbate com/uglytranny best


Good thing your shitty addon will go away when FF finally switches to pure webextensions

Palememe is the same? you can test?

I will use Firefox forks after that.

Good thing Firefox reaches out to people with brain problems like you. Don't be left behind, Chris-chan!

install w3m is best

>I'm too dumb to CTRL+SHIFT+T

>Just paste the link into your precious console, like livestreamer chaturbate com/uglytranny best

>just lower your standards and accept a shittier experience, and you'll love Chrome
No thanks.

install w3m is the best

>literally below 10% market share
>if more people us it that means it's better! Just like iPhones!
>he also gets ads in his browser because he uses chrome
Kek
kys

>i'm too dumb to read

iPhone marketshare has in fact plummeted over the last years. Your equation is invalid. Enjoy your niche system and browser.

But feel free to tell me where Chrome has ads?! I don't see any lol

GNU icacat best browser

Even Palememe is more up to date

what would i need updates for? it runs fine

wtf? There is no backport from ff.

>latest icecat version is literally half a year old

ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnuzilla/

...

>5 points have been deposited in your google account

>if you don't like fagfox you must like google

KEEEEEEEEEEEKKKK I'm literally using yandex and opera

>literally chorme reskins
is this way

>not knowing what firefox ESR is
IceCat is derived from it. ESR is aimed at enterprises but the mainter decided they wanted it to be based on ESR. Less maintance.

This trait is also followed in Pale Moon, which is currently on a (large) fork of Firefox 24 ESR, with security backports. 27 will be based on 38 ESR. (While removing australis).

I personally have no issues with Pale Moon. Sometimes older is better.

ESR means: No updates, only bugfixes.

Enjoy your single process.

Both browsers have their distinct set of features that sets them apart from normal chrome. Pity you are so blind and set in your ways, freeturd shill.

...

I'm a Firefos user and I think it's a pity, but Chrome is more secure. Firefox has no sandboxing and it has serious structural security problems like bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=929539 (thankfully solved, but how many are left?)

Once electrolysis and Servo stuff start maturing, Firefox will get a lot better... or that's what I hope. I wish Chromium was botnet-free so I could use it. It's a pity that despite being open source it's tied to Google services by hardcoding.

Once the new ESR comes out, we'll get multi process.

That will be quite a while though. Did you know you can do it now by spawning a new instance with the -no-remote flag?

>Both browsers have their distinct set of botnets that sets them apart from normal chrome.
ftfy

>tfw you're forced to use lagfox because you care about privacy and shit

Says the tard using a Mozcuck botnet. Have you colored your hair purple yet?

...

> recommends Google

nothing wrong with seamonkey .
been using it with great pleasure .
low memory usage , with firefox its filled in no time.
try it out and see for yourself.

I use Chrome. Just deinstalled bloatfox.

I tried Palemoon and Opera but I ran into issues with unsupported websites and that kind of shit. Got sick of it so I DL'd chrome because I want something fast that just werks.

Fuck it, Google can have my shitty browsing history, I don't care anymore.

CAN THIS DO ADBLOCKING AND FLASH???

Yeah

>worst of all, google now knows what sort of degenerate pork he gaps to

alright i am running vivaldi with adblock now what?

Start enjoying life

delete fagfox

Uninstall firefox.
No way systemd.
8G+ ram is a meme.
Install BSD.
Can you image what a pile of shit you're computer would be if you actually took all the crap memes on Sup Forums serious?

comodo ice dragon

>comodo

KEKKKKK

Done

Fuck this shitty browser, going back to Safari.

I havn't been keeping up with the bullshit people are getting mad about these days.

What's going on?

It's not these days, this has been going on for a while.
See, Firefox is slow and developed by SJWs
Check this out

Great so when is chromium getting noscript and working adblock? Never? Cool, that's what I thought. Meanwhile I'll continue using a browser that isn't made by a company that doesn't directly profit off insecurity.

> Noscript and adblock
Wow, nostalgia. Even on FF, I'd switch to uBlock origin.

And maybe uMatrix and random agent spoofer.

Truth be told I just use a hosts file. But noscript and self destructing cookies are just plain required for every day browsing now.

>what is a general

IceCat 45 beta is out

if multi-process comes at the expense of the addon architecture or configurable preferences then i wholeheartedly will

>Once electrolysis and Servo stuff start maturing, Firefox will get a lot better
The only reason to use Firefox is its power-user features. It has now removed those features and will continue to do so. There is no reason to use Firefox anymore.

if you mean IceCat users, keep dreaming

>tfw you're well-informed enough to not need to use lagfox

it's usable

install icecat

uBlock is more elegant than just a hosts file since you can also use anti-anti adblock filters and what not.

And noscript can basically be substituted with uMatrix. Didn't have any problems with that approach yet. I guess it's only a partial substitute for self-destructing cookies....?

Either way, just getting rid of cookies isn't even enough. Without random agent spoofer your browser is quite likely uniquely identifiable by the ad companies and anyone who cares anyhow.

>I guess it's only a partial substitute for self-destructing cookies....?
install Clear Console
/
block 3rd party cookies

PS: uMatrix can delete even un-blocked cookies xx minutes after they've last been use. Plus it can just block cookies from domain x used on domain y.

>don't let the SJWs win!

who? This term has lost all relevance.

no it hasn't

friendly reminder that firefox is less secure than both chrome and fucking microsoft edge. why are you still using this garbage, Sup Forums?

forbes.com/sites/leemathews/2016/11/05/microsoft-edge-comes-out-on-top-in-browser-security-test/#37660ef45b57

Literally impossible for it to be less secure than Chrome since Chrome deliberately leaks all your info to Google

it doesnt istall right ?
but it doubles the memory usage over Seamonkey... BUT its fast tho.
but i dont like the memoy usage of it ...

how do you get rid of the tiles ?

install brave browser.

chrome and firefox are both infected by SJWs.

honestly on android ff is losing the game. desktop is petty normal for me but android version is lacking everything, almoat no addons, poor perfomance and poor comparability, wake the fuck up ff team!

This.
There is no "less secure than google product".

there is no such thing user. All you lose when using chromium vs chrome is some codecs and the google office apps.

why did firefox go downhill so much
it used to be THE web browser
how could it get so slow

Google has money. A lot of money. Also Android gives chrome big user base for testing, while all Mozilla has is a "better than IE" reputation and is used mainly on PCs, all this while being a non-profit organization. And since Google has Youtube and could push html5 really fast while Firefox had to adapt, i think that was the first big sign of Firefox getting behind

Yeah but Umatrix can't delete them right after leaving the site, wish gorhill would add the feature so i can get rid of self destructing cookies already since it's not even e10s compatible.
Umatrix has a random agent spoofer.

>disable this garbage
>still can't install unsigned addons
What do?

install developer edition

bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1247056

Chrome and Firefox are equally vulnerable to fingerprinting. You can check panopticlick and the social media fingerprint test (find your own links, I'm lazy) to prove it. Even FF's test pilot privacy feature won't protect you.

Moreover, Chrome is a more secure browser due to its sandboxing, a feature Firefox won't have until sometime next year.

Privacy-wise, both browsers run Privacy Badger and umatrix, so why argue? Use whatever you like.

wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Sandbox

Looks like windows builds will get some sandboxing features in firefox 50. The biggest hindrance has been the XUL addons which have blocked e10s from being rolled out

Still annoyed that there's no x64 build for Windows. I don't want to compile that shit everytime there's a new update.
