Firefox is still the best.

Just use a fork that isnt pozzed

Icecat or Waterfox

Anything but chromium-based shit.

this

Icecat

>recently

It has been shit for years desu, the same slow sluggish browser no matter what shills say, and I only tolerated it because I liked its dev tools.

I use Vivaldi nowadays, it's alright, but I'm open to alternatives, basically anything that isn't built on top of Firefox slowness like Gecko/SpiderMonkey/XUL.

Why do you say that user?
Everything works smoothly and it is even faster since they released 57. All of my addons are working as they should. I have already replaced legacy addons with the alternate and opensource webext ones.

Firefox was never running so slowly and buggy as
now. Did it only happen to me?

don't change something because it's the current fad to do so. firefox is fine but use whatever the FUCK you want.

firefox nightly.

It is faster than chrome

Nightly is fine. Use a privacy-focused about:config and disable all the bullshit, then you're good. There are alternatives for every non-webext as well. Yeah, the company is a bunch of dirty SJWs who have their head in the completely wrong place about something, but it's still a competitive browser.

If you must, switch to Icecat if you're on Linux. QupZilla is also fine. If you don't care about add-ons there's also things like qute browser or Dooble, and if you feel like going out of the way for a botnet-less Chrome you can install the necessary patch-sets to do so, or place your trust in Iridium / Ungoogled Chromium. Plenty of options.

Brave, Pale Moon, and Waterfox are memes.

I just tried nightly and it's slow compared to brave, I want a browser with the addons of firefox or chrome that is fast.

Try enabling servo rendering in about:config

How many times now have Firefox gone to shit in the past decade? I honestly lost count

Iridium

Otter Browser

IceCat is alright
Pale Moon but that could go south pretty fast all things considered
Waterfox is alright? I've seen conflicting things said about it here
SeaMonkey if that's still usable
Qupzilla maybe?
Ungoogled Chromium seems alright
Iridium seems alright
That's about it I think.

Well, at least it doesn't have millions of bugs like Brave does. I couldn't use it for more than an hour and had to kill it five times in that one hour.

bit faster, I installed palemoon now and it blows the fuck out of firefox nightly with servo rendering
I'm testing this on a 6 year old pc

>has gone to shit recently

>firefox has gone to shit recently
What are you talking about. It gets better and better.

Try refreshing your profile. Go to about:support and click on the "Refresh Firefox..." button.

I just installed Waterfox. Holy fucking shit, Facebook has never been so smooth. (Will kill myself for being a normie later. Sry senpai)

Vivaldi with uBlock Origin and Session Buddy.

Some guy last thread complained that he couldn't switch tabs by scrolling, but that's right under the tabs settings.

I am still using Nightly 56. Why would I bother to upgrade?

>recently
FF hasn't been good since 3.5

Use Firefox or Firefox nightly.

t. idiots who installed 32bit version

t. cuck

>since firefox has gone to shit recently
it has done the exact opposite though. I switched from chrome to nightly

Why do you all think Firefox has gone to shit? It seems fine to me

Use Brave.

what's the replacement for dta?

I'm using Cyberfox but I'm a bit sad because my favorite addon for it ceased development about a week ago. The All in One Sidebar for Firefox will probably break whenever they roll out their overhaul of the addon system to be web addons.

none. Just use the default downloader or wget.

how did you get ublock ?
im on 57.0a1 on mac and its not comaptible

GNU IceCat m8

check github for instructions

That is why people should stop advertising Nightly to just about everyone.
addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/versions/beta
Read what it actually says. You first need to install a hybrid-version in order to keep your current settings.

>in order to keep your current settings
>custom settings
Which almost nobody has. Just install the addon normally and spend less than a minute modifying it to how it was.

Just give in to the botnet. I did and I'm better off for it.

It's still good and it's way faster now. Stop being a crybaby OP.

see

is waterfox a meme or not

None. It's time to quit the Internet. It's the perfect opportunity to learn and adapt to life without Internet like our forefathers did.

>inb4 brave
Thanks for the false positive
Please try to not use the no no word.

Legit question about Brave:
Can you install addons such as ublock, or a post-load JS runner like GreaseMonkey?

No

Firefox is getting better des.

> (OP)
>Firefox is getting better des.
DES is dedicated

*desu

I switched to Nightly from PaleMoon recently, and I haven't looked back.

I don't use anything other than Ublock and Stylus so it wasn't even a second thought.

The performance gained was a major bonus.

except palemoon is maintained by a furry who blocked adnauseum

>botnetwarden
>not using last pass

>Firefox is still the best.
I wish it was, but it keeps deleting all my tabs, and I find data loss to be completely unacceptable. I've had to switch primary browsers to Vivaldi. It seems to provide the most similar functionality to Firefox with a few tweaks.

>vivaldi
>proprietary software

Also I suggest you try updating your FireFox because I haven't had that issue.

If you enable sync you can have over 500+ tabs enabled across mobile and desktop

>online password management
what a retard

How do you get uBlock to work on nightly?

I wanna give nightly a spin but there's no way I'm using it if I can't use uBlock or noScript.

...

opera has been the only real choice ever

Opera sold it's soul to the chinks

Waterfox feels like the same shit, it even imports all your bookmarks and add-ons automatically. Pale Moon isn't bad either, though.

Check uBlock's github for the webext version and instructions on how to install it

Read notes if you want to transfer data from the older version.

addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/versions/beta

...

github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases

firefox 55.0.3 just marked all of my addons as 'legacy'
what the fuck should i do?

stylus is the webext fork of stylish

click alternatives or find a webext version

you got till novemeber for the devs to update or find alternatives

legacy just means you cant enable multiprocessingwhile they are in use

Install Otter Browser

all of them were disabled, including uBlock

And the rest are CIA botnets, at least since I don't live in China they'll never bother me.

while it is GPL3 its development is very slow

HURR DURR USE FF ITS STILL THE BEST

blog.mozilla.org/blog/2017/08/08/mozilla-information-trust-initiative-building-movement-fight-misinformation-online/

THEY EVEN SAY WHAT I CAN LOOK AT AND NOT LOOK AT.

IT WAS JUST A COINCIDENCE THEY ANNOUNCED THIS THE SAME DAY AS SOROS FUNDED COMPANIES STARTED THEIR WAR. NOTHING TO SEE HERE.

Fuck you idiots.

>Not bookmarking all your tabs as a backup

shut up, shill

>THEY EVEN SAY WHAT I CAN LOOK AT AND NOT LOOK AT.
Nice reading comprehension you got there. No, they don't say what you can or can't look at.

waterfox is the new firefox that doesn't suck
palememe is shit and run by a moralist furry
brave is a crypto scam that wants to replace website ads with ads that pay brave
ungoogled chromium is alright

Because combating "misinformation" is way different right?

Some super defined lines there. No bad path to be seen here.

stop astroturfing brendan

>Because combating "misinformation" is way different right?
Yes. And they are giving a few concrete examples what that entails. Telling their users what is and is not true is not among them.

It's open soros
:^)

when were you when mozilla is win?

Ungoogled Chromium = Iridium?

You don't need uBlock. It blocks ads out of the box.

As a heads up, HTTPS everywhere has a WebExtension compatible version in beta:

eff.org/files/https-everywhere-test/index.html

There are a lot of sites that Smart HTTPS doesn't catch but Everywhere does.

>you don't need ublock, it replaces ads with ads

No.
This page keeps mostly up to date information.
chromium.woolyss.com/#chromium-forks

Essentially ungoogled chromium is a set of patches you can apply that mostly redirect google traffic to a fake impossible url.

Pretty sure they're at like their lowest market share ever. Fuck those faggots

It doesn't though. It blocks ads.

>easily verifiable information
>uh no it's actually the opposite durr
I hope you're just pretending.

Seriously what's wrong with it?

Why would you do this if Iridium exists?

I don't.
I build google botnet infested latest source with widevine, webrtc, and sync disabled.
I used ungoogled patches (that also borrow patches from Iridium) in the past, but it's mostly just an annoyance.
I wish a lot of the "protective features" like the difficulty of installing nonsigned apps from unknown sources was dead simple like it used to be.

>ungoogled chromium is alright
Literally placebo.

This. Also, Brave.

Trust me, when you start using un-googled chromium and try to install ublock origin, you quickly realize how much you rely on the chrome store to keep your "apps" up to date for you vs with un-googled chromium where you unpack the latest zip file on your hard drive and load the "app" in developer mode.
Or just defeat some of the purpose of using un-googled chromium and use a jscript to load the "app" from google's store.

>Vivaldi
kek, I bet you use duckduckgo as well.
