To all you guys that use Firefox now, will you use it after the addon switch?
>What web browser do you use and why?
I use Firefox because I'm used to it.
Logan Rogers
Botnet Chrome because it's fast and i don't care that Google knows what porn im watching
Blake Watson
Have anyone tried QupZilla here? How is it?
Carter Bennett
It's pretty good, although it has issues playing videos here and there.
Gavin Cox
I might switch off until the essentials are back in, but the change will be good in the long run. I only use 3-4 addons anyway, so don't plan on using something else for long
Ryan Ramirez
Same here, the only addons i use are ublock origin and https everywhere.
Caleb Evans
>https everywhere
I'm using uBlock, Greasemonkey and Stylish. Since they are some of the most popular I'm sure it won't take long until they are adapted.
Wyatt Adams
Can you redpill my what addon switch ?
Jason Howard
Which lightweight browser does Sup Forums recommend for Android? I want multiple sessions but I don't like using Chrome's incognito because of the "Click to close all incognito sessions" notification.
Brayden Stewart

Joseph Cox
firefox
werks
Xavier Ross
why firefox nightly is considered to be the best version on all these charts floating around?
Thomas Myers
Because it's multiprocess, stable enough, gets updated quickly and it isn't botnet.
Benjamin Cruz
Lightning is pretty good.
Xavier Ward
how accurate is this

If 'old them3 restorer' stops working... I don't know....
I don't want to use Chrome, that cunt.
Dylan Cooper
I use Firefox and I'd like to know if there are any good tutorials for umatrix.
I would like to block anything possible to block regarding google, facebook and other socials outside of their own fucking website.
Charles Jones
Opera have everything I need
>adblock
>bookmark synchronization
>doesn't rape laptop battery
>free VPN
>supports chrome extensions
but most importantly...
>doesn't crash every 10 fucking minutes like chrome or fagfox
Jackson Cook
Depends, do you use your web browser to browse the web? Firefox is pretty awful at browsing the web, even compared to Edge, and especially compared to chrome.
Nathan Ramirez
I'm gonna copy this over from the sqt because I feel it fits better here: I'm finally trying to take back my privacy and ditch Chrome, but there are so many firefox versions and forks to choose from. What are some pros and cons of the notable ones?

Firefox never crashes for me, is it something related to how many extensions and script you have?

This is a protip, if someone can't use linking verbs or conjugate verbs properly while defending something they are either genuine idiots or shills
Zachary Baker
I use safari on my mac and I heard good things about the technology preview. Any opinions on switching to that or webkit nightly?
Robert Gray
Ice cat

Alexander Martinez
Move Icecat down to excellent and then it's perfect.
Nathaniel Sanchez
Its both the same retard
Ryan Murphy
-Firefox is good in general.
-Waterfox is a tiny percent faster than Firefox, no real reason to use it over Firefox.
-Pale moon is basically Firefox but with the old UI, and it will continue to support current extensions even after Firefox switches to web extensions.
-Nightly is multi-process and gets faster updates than Firefox, but can be unstable at times.
That's about it. I don't think there is any other Firefox version/fork worth noting.

Landon Gonzalez
I juse Chrome botnet.
Runs best for me.
I don't care about open source
I don't care about botnet
It just works
Benjamin Thomas
the rules are each category must have a max of 4 browsers
Luke Gray
And who made those rules?
Logan Morgan
Is Iridium completely ungoogled? Also is it the same level of "cutting edge/unstable" as firefox nightly or more/less stable?
Camden Flores
It's basically ungoogled-chromium but with a different name.
Dominic Cruz
Wiki when?
Cameron Long
no
>no privacy issues
IceCat is god tier and you all going to worship the god when Mozilla goes webextensions.
Landon Edwards
IceCat is a great browser, but it isn't cutting edge, so it shouldn't be in god tier.
Nicholas Howard
I wanna give Vivaldi a try.
Nicholas Peterson
I understand where the confusion comes, but is not just a fork.

>IceCat is not a straight fork of Firefox ESR; instead, it is a parallel effort that works closely with and re-bases in synchronization on the latest Firefox ESR as the upstream supplier, with patches merged upstream whenever possible; although it should be noted that additional security updates are customized to IceCat occasionally.

Not cutting edge.
Kayden Jones
>confusion
Are you a GNU damage control bot?
It's a fork of ESR that gets security updates. It is not cutting edge. It will never be cutting edge. Maybe in a few months when ESR gets upgraded to Firefox 52.
Stop defending it because there is also nothing wrong with IceCat itself. It is just not cutting edge.
Benjamin Lewis
Read again.
Troll detected.
Julian Turner
You do realise that Firefox ESR is old software by definition right?
Oliver Gray
You don realize that is not vanilla ESR we are talking here right?
Like come on.
Benjamin Richardson
You are absolutely right.
It's even less bleeding edge than ESR.
Grayson Gray
Your EDITED picture implies a lot of shit. Why don't you tell use what shitty browser you are shilling instead so we can laugh at you.
Aiden Cooper
I use firefox stable.
I am disappointed though, I thought you really had a point about icecat being cutting edge but the fact that you think I edited the picture activates my almonds into believing I've been rused all along.

>To all you guys that use Firefox now, will you use it after the addon switch?
I don't see why people autisticly screech over this
We just won't have to make firefox specific versions while developing addons
Sure people who invested in the previous api will bitch about it like this guy who made all these tab management plugins but i don't get why more browser standardization is a bad thing.
Asher Reyes
Some addons can't exist with the new API, that's what devs are concerned. Apparently current addons have access to more resources than what they will get with webextensions.
Just my 2 cents here.
