HTML5 lags on chromium thanks to google pushing VP9 meme while it has no proper hardware accelration yet

resource hogging
Ian Murphy
It has a sandbox.
Justin Thomas
Oops. I read the op wrong.
Justin Gonzalez
nothing, its an amazing browser
John Wright
Too resource intensive.
That's about it.
muh botnet is just a meme.
>google pushing VP9 meme
Google's too busy working on AV1 (which will have hardware acceleration within a year) to care about VP9 anymore.
James Wilson
after 3 years using only FF, feels FAST man
I hope mozilla gets back on track
Oliver Davis
Opposite effect on me, minimal clean firefox works way faster than chrome for me
Logan Brooks
Same
Asher Murphy
Closed-source binary blobs.
Cooper Rivera
Botnet.
Hudson Edwards
this tbqhf
Aaron Cox
what parts of chromium are not open source ? can't find information about this
Henry Williams
welcome to FUD and fear mongering based on no facts at all.
Joshua Price
There was a single incident years ago when Chromium would download a binary blob used to integrate with Google's voice command stuff.
The autists exploded, so Google hid it behind a build flag. And everyone went back to not caring.
Leo Myers
It's not Firefox
Angel Morales
Chrome doesn't support unity for some retarded reason.
David Barnes
firefox is generally slower than chrom*
Luis Edwards
Just wait for WASM to finalize. Pretty sure there's already a WASM version of Unity anyways.
Parker Russell
yes totally a meme, except the fact that it pings home to google FOR EVERYTHING
Robert Anderson
Servo will fix that r-right g-g-guys?
Jackson Myers
>written in Rust
There'll be less memory leaks at least?
Chase Ortiz
That's why you use Iridium.

g-guys, why am i so outdated?
using the package found in apt, what's the best way to download up to date chromium on GNU/Linux?
Joshua Phillips

Colton Baker
Botnet like everything else these days.
David Cook
b-but i want to be able to auto update it with apt
would adding the chromium ppa give me the latest version?
Blake Sullivan
>14gigs
Top GNU!!
Xavier Hernandez
because there's degoogled chromium instead
Chase Roberts
Why the fuck do I keep getting an error the first time I load a YT video on Chromium? If I refresh the site the video loads normally. Maybe it has something to do with uBO blocking the pre-video ad?
Austin Taylor
I guess. Google for chromium ppa dev branch...
Aiden Moore
chromium and chrome canary are both crashing on my system every few minutes
classic chrome is not crashing
Gavin Cook
it only crashes for faggots, since chromium is botnet it knows you're one

wasn't this supposedly taken out of the browser? im all for scrutiny, but isnt this a bit far-fetched? going for a 2-year-old vulnerability?
Tyler Scott
if it's like the main-line branch, they took away the ability to go back by pressing Backspace
that shit is inexcusable and it was the final straw for me
Christian Bennett
The file mentioned in that commit was completely removed. Not sure if it was moved, or if it's just hiding in the code though. I'm not downloading the entire source code for a browser I'm not using, just to search for a string.
Jackson Cox
Hardcoded pigfat URL bar (accesibility mode is forced)
Menus and tabs for bookmarks and history instead of compact sidebars
Other retarded UI decisions
as the most "advanced" websites I use are Sup Forums, amazon, and my bank's, i don't ever have an opportunity to notice which browser is faster or handles laggy js better. daily usability shit is more important.
Chrome is probably an absolute must for "news" sites, left and right, that are more biased than the shit on TV, youtube, and those random normie shit meme pages that render absolutely everything with js because they're trendy.
Xavier Gonzalez
I really don't understand why firefox handles js-intensive sites so much worse.
Any kind of games and my meme *coin exchanges with pretty graphs and shit are impossible to use with firefox.
Julian Perry
>I really don't understand why firefox handles js-intensive sites so much worse.
Because Mozilla and (especially) Microsoft were late to transitioning over to JIT Javascript, while Google only ever made Chrome for that purpose.
Though, at the moment it looks like Edge is faster, but that may be because Edge still hasn't implemented the rest of the bloat that is Javascript and HTML5.

Alexander Perez
last time i checked you couldnt even modify HTTP HEADERS with chrome, thats why its so fast because it has shit work to do
Ian Richardson

Google was never known for good UIs. Them following the Hamburger-Menu like it's some holy doctrine is beyond infuriating. They even implemented a fucking Hamburger-Menu for Chrome's settings.
Ryan Sanders
>open source means every single line of code has been audited
you're fucking retarded, enjoy the binary blobs
Noah Thompson
>most widely used browser on the internet
>no one has audited it
Maybe you should do it, silly.
Jayden Sullivan
That was just one person doing a quick search for their domain in the code. No one on Sup Forums has the will to review 14gigs worth of source code. I can't trust the German botnet after that (even if foss and claimed to be degoogled). Same for Chromium. It used to download binary blobs to enable Google's proprietary speech recognition thingy until people noticed. Just because sth is foss doesn't make it secure/respect the users privacy... If you don't care, just use Chrome.
Tyler Reyes
explain the binary blob incident then, it was found late as fuck, why are you so convinced there is nothing else there?
Easton Bell
>it was found late
Was it? I was under the impression it was found pretty quickly, but what do I know.

I wish there was more competition but Chromium really is the best browser. It feels like most other browser devs gave up on creating a general purpose browser because Chromium is always 10 steps ahead.
