Firefox Quantum

I just installed the Firefox quantum beta, and I have to admit it, it Mozilla has gone out of its way to outright amaze the shit out of me.

I don't want to be a shill or anything, but this version has enhanced the browser (except the default theme, it's worse) as a whole to me. I think you should go check it out now.

Does it run youtube as smooth as chrome now?

For a ramlet like me (4GiB) it uses way more ram than Chrome.

NoThx. SJW browser.

>2018
>playing videos in your browser

this happened last night.
loaded up about 10 tabs.
then went to knowyourmeme.
then this happened.
i only stopped it because windows started to slow down.

Can YOU BROWSE FACEBOOK WITHOUT crashing/slowing down hard/moving haggardly?

plis lesbond

You already have another thread open for this.

>not having AT LEAST 32gb of ram

ramlet

>tfw 1gb of ram
I PUSH MY FINGERS INTO MY EYEESSSSSS

i love firefox but goddamn i can't stand it when a website can destroy the browser.
chrome:
>website eating RAM and stops responding.
>chrome task manager
>end process

firefox:
>website eating RAM and stops responding.
>open up windows task manager
>firefox
>end task

i also use chrome a lot (for swagbucks)
certain websites will eat ram and stall chrome
>chrome task
>end process
no browser restart required
all other tabs still functioning

>Open Firefox
>Go to Facebook and youtube, have 5 tabs on FB, 1 tab on YT
>Firefox has stopped responding

sometimes just opening up facebook will do this.
it's why i upgraded to 16GB yesterday.

Sup Forums X doesn't work in this shit. wtf

>be Android phoneposter
>try out nightly
>open up tsumino.com

This is practically how browsers should behave by default with audio and video.

NPVR. great simple program. OTA DVR. the USB TV Tuner is located on my Server. i stream live TV to my PC. i use it everyday to watch the news in the morning while im on my computer.

need to install pyshit client just to have that Open with functionality
I fucking hate it

Wake me up when they re-added old add on support.

That's impossible unfortunately.

Are you talking about youtube-dl?

same here.
amazaing piece of software

You don't have to explain yourself to anyone user.
Shit works for you? Fuck everyone else.

no, the addon that allows you to have that Open with mpv button

I tried Nightly and it was merely okay. Loads basically the same as palemoon for me and with a lot less functionality.

literally uses more ram than chrome now

i have youtubedl but that doesn't show on my right click menu

i'm always looking for better advice if anyone wants to share it.

why would i run this over nightly?

holy shit that delay when you click

2005 pc?

...

the name is cooler

When they release the non-beta version I will probably switch back to Firefox. I'm using Brave right now but it seriously lack in features. Firefox right click > save page as... is the function I miss the most. Also their download manager and the way browsing history is displayed in auto complete. With Brave I get websites that I visited once months ago on top of my autocomplete results for some reason. I really can't stress enough how unfinished and unpolished Brave feels.
I stopped caring about privacy desu because I use Windows so no matter what meme gimmicks I use I will never have true privacy anyway.

You mean this?
github.com/agiz/youtube-mpv
Only works in Chrome then?

But open with doesn't require a client at all?

>Acronis
Yeah, it's shit, used to be good 5 years ago, now it's terrible and full of bugs.

...

yes it does
see >Chrome like/Firefox browser.
>python2 or python3
>youtube_dl module
>mpv or similar
also we're speaking of firefox 57+, so no, there isn't an addon that can do this without some sort of client

>open with
?

only used it to clone a HDD.
I do need a better backup program. the one i have was the first program that i saw when i googled free computer backup.

How do you stand not having 4chanX?

>first program that i saw when i googled
wew lad.

Open with only requires a browser (obviously). It doesn't require python, youtube-dl or mpv. That stuff is for if you want to open videos with mpv.

learn to read

I'm on stable ;^)

lol yeah i know.
it does its job...as far as i know. never needed to use a backup.

>beta thread
>LOL I'M ON STABLE KEK WERKS FOR ME XD

I've never seen this before. Is this the webextension version?

yes you fucking retard, did you check which thread you're in?

acksually my reply was about playing videos in browsers

Macrium for clone, freefilesync for incremental folder/file backup. Macrium also lets you make a dedicated boot disk. Also I hope you're using ninite, so at least some of your software isn't raging crapware.

I didn't even know there was a webextension version until today senpai.

well now you know, go here addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-with/ and scroll down to the Development channel, you can get it there

I only use 5 boards, the thread watcher is all I need right now.

Why do you even care about python though? You'd have to use it anyway for youtube-dl.

>You'd have to use it anyway for youtube-dl.
?
I just get the executable, I don't even have python installed

>We also provide a Windows executable that includes Python
>includes Python

tfw beta > nightly logo
tfw we the cools kids now

There's a Compact Dark theme that's very nice, especially with client side decorations. Supposedly Linux gets CSD support in 58 or 59.

yes it includes python but it doesn't install it, it just uses python to run that executable. All this means is that the filesize is larger

What, do you open images in your web browser with an image program too? Faggot

You're making a meaningless distinction. The youtube-dl executable comes with the necessary python binaries and libraries for it to run. You might not have python "installed" (whatever that means), but you sure as hell are using it. If you care about package management so much, you shouldn't be using Windows in the first place.

>he doesn't open images with mpv

I don't care about using python but I do care about installing shit on Windows considering it's so fucking horrible at it, so I avoid installing anything if I really don't have to, or just simply use portable versions. On linux however I don't mind just installing python and let it be there because I know it won't turn into an absolute clusterfuck few months later when something needs to be removed or modified

What are the benefits to doing this?

You get an actual video player to play video and not garbage html crap.

You get to show all the kids on Sup Forums what a friendless autist you are.

wow thanks user.
just updated from 56 to 57 beta and I'm really impressed.
works really smooth.

Horrible cheap shilling. Suck my ass mozilla

Better everything with good settings. Upscaling low res videos is a lot better.

You can bring back the old volume control via regedit easily

off yourself user, you're worthless. Go try 57 and come back tho before you hang yourself, and admit we are right and youre just a fucking retard

I have. You're overhyping the fuck out of this. It's just ok.

it's a bit different.
in windows 7 you could use a registry tweak to do what i want.
i want to be able to click the sound icon and the "expanded" view to be already out.
with windows10, the only thing the registry tweak does is bring back the sound mixer.
you still have to click on the expand button for it to expand.
i use EarTrumpet as a simple GUI.
i click on it and this pops up automatically.

Which one is supposed to be better?

I just want to watch a shitty youtube video quick, not watch 4k adult chinese cartoons.

>swagbucks
what is this?

I used 57 nightly 2 months ago and it's a pile of outdated shit. Mozilla aren't even trying anymore, even at marketing

When did they change it? Works fine on my 2 desktops. Try several sources for this regedit.

can't even change the keybinds it's shit

for poor people.
i have no life so im on the internet a lot.
so i use swagbucks to make a few pennies.
you basically click on ads and get paid a penny.
pennies add up to a few bucks a month.

only tweaks i ever saw were to bring back the original mixer.
tenforums.com/tutorials/7948-use-old-new-volume-control-ui-windows-10-a.html

i didn't want that.
i wanted to click the sound icon and to view the already expanded window
if you know where that tweak is, i would love to know it.

The theme (of nightly) is good honestly.

It did this for years, what potato are you running it on?

CNET and geeksquad or w/e its called

It's the same upscale. Just the stats are different.

Using an external media player is great for both.

>arc theme
>2011+6
>ishygddt

Firefox has never crashed once for me on desktop in the past 3 years.

This is what i want:
>STEP 1: click on sound icon
>STEP 2: mute program
done

this is what the CNET tweak does:
>step 1: click on sound icon
>step 2: click on mixer
>step 3: mute program
done

i wanted to remove that extra step. (im constantly changing the volume)
in windows7 the tweak did this. in windows10 you can only tweak it to bring the classic single bar, you still have to click mixer to expand it.

pic related:
it's not what i want

forgot pic. (from cnet)

Into the trash it goes.

So do you need to fuck with shit to get it good, or does MVP work well out of the box?

Depends on if you like the defaults, but yes it works "out of the box". Adding a few words in a conf file can improve quality of course.
