If you use Mozilla's Firefox, you are literally using a slower browser filled with spam, sponsored extensions and features, Google tracking, blocking of certain extensions, data collection, and old features. Waterfox is also up to date with the source unlike other projects (e.g. Pale Moon) which are always outdated by months or years. And finally, many people are reporting Mozilla uses this money to sponsor domestic terror groups. youtu.be/KPgyTzqDJhM
its literally the latest version of Firefox with none of your sponsored trash and google tracking

Okay sure I'll have a look. >goes to project website >first thing is a button saying 'Download for Mac'
Dropped.

The Day they will release a ESR version maybe for the moment only Mozilla provided it.

>durr why dont you use what i use durrrrr
Austin Martin
But I am!
Tyler Moore
I have considered this as a possibility. I currently use Brave, but I could see this being a pretty nice browser if you want to stick with something Firefox based
Adam Green
Waaaah project has a mac port waaaah Fucking nu-Sup Forums
Levi Martinez
i use brave and waterfox. brave is great just needs a bit more updates for some basic stuff. theyre focusing on non usability related updates recently unfortunately.
Jeremiah Murphy
>Features >Disabled Encrypted Media Extensions (EME) Or you could download Firefox without EME from Mozilla's website. Or you could disable EME from the settings. Since EME runs inside a sandbox in FF, disabling it essentially means it will never run any of that code. >Disabled Web Runtime (deprecated as of 2015) Yes, it's deprecated. Which means it's not in FF either. >Removed Pocket >Removed data collection >Removed startup profiling This is the same entry. Are you really that desperate to make the list seem longer? Anyway, most GNU distros already disable this, and disabling it is easy even if it's not. It's irrelevant. >Allow running of all 64-Bit NPAPI plugins Wait, so you actually want Flash, Java and Silverlight? What a moron. >Allow running of unsigned extensions Enjoy your malware. >Removal of Sponsored Tiles on New Tab Page Literally nobody will ever see after using the browser more than 2 minutes. Less if they use Firefox Sync. >Addition of Duplicate Tab option Middle-click on the Reload button. >Locale selector in about:preferences > General Congratulations. Finally something that Firefox doesn't have. >If you use Mozilla's Firefox, you are literally using a slower browser filled with spam No, it has no spam. >sponsored extensions and features You mean Pocket and Cliqz? Pocket is literally a bookmark. Cliqz is a search engine for Germany and will never be included anywhere else. >Google tracking Liar. >blocking of certain extensions NPAPI is deprecated. You whine about EME but want Flash, Java and Silverlight to not only run proprietary code inside your browser, but to also manage the DRM? You're a hypocrite. >data collection Irrelevant. >and old features Such as NPAPI? Hypocrite. >Mozilla uses this money to sponsor domestic terror groups Complete lie.

You didnt manage to come up with a single reason to use FF, butthurt tranny
Jason Turner
>slow as fuck (even more than Firefox) and uses ton of CPU when you have more than 5 tabs open.

I've just about stopped using WF. It is slow, laggy, and froze my PC up this week. I don't know what's going on with it, but it's turning to trash.
Blake Baker
disable multi-process
Jace Lee
I'll try it when I get home. Only started maybe 2 updates ago, which happened 1-2 weeks ago. Very disappointing, used it for years now. I use the git version as well.
Tyler Brown
The video doesn't prove any connection between RiseUp and antifa. Hell, the video doesn't even claim Mozilla is sponsoring antifa. That's a lie. >doesn't disprove my claim that Sponsored Tabs are a minor annoyance at worst >claims FF Sync is somehow bad without any resoning behind it besides "da joos" Sup Forumsjeets should go back to their designated shitposting board. All these "features" are either irrelevant or already present in FF, so it's not necessary to use WF.
William Cox
I have no reason to use FF with all the current focus on politics they seem to be focused on right now. It's great you support their brand of social justice, but I can't in good conscience support them throwing money away on worthless causes. Just a quick trip to the Mozilla website will give the impression of some type of charity organization.
Hudson Sanders
>All these "features" are either irrelevant or already present in FF, so it's not necessary to use WF. Oh, so it's not "necessary" is it? Why would need to be a necessity? How about no one wants to support the delusional leftists...?
>doesn't prove any connection between RiseUp and antifa. Other than riseup giving them and other leftist criminals email and other services.
John Martinez
>Other than riseup giving them and other leftist criminals email and other services. So does every single e-mail provider.
David Martinez
don't like downstream stuff
Brody Reed
Because I have thousands of tabs open, so Palemoon is the only choice.
David Collins
There is no "current focus on politics" the Mozilla Foundation has always been the same. Unless, of course, you're one of those autists that get triggered and scream "agenda" whenever someone claims they're for diversity. Mozilla is not giving money to antifa. That's a fucking lie and not even Lunduke was delusional enough to claim that. >How about no one wants to support the delusional leftists...? Then don't support them. You're just using a browser, not supporting a cause. >Other than riseup giving them and other leftist criminals email and other services. It's Cock.li Nazi, then? Is Tor guilty of drug trafficking, child abuse and terrorism? Let me remind you that the only "proof" Lunduke found was that some members of It's Going Down have a RiseUp account. Most of them also had Twitter, Facebook, Google and/or Microsoft accounts. Are they antifa too? It's Going Down's official email is Protonmail and there is no official sponsoring or connection between them and RiseUp, plus RiseUp has been used by Wikileaks and it's recommended in the Install Gentoo Wiki and several privacy-focused websites. So yes, that's a lie. Mozilla is not sponsoring "domestic terrorism" anymore than Tor is sponsoring child abuse.
Gavin Martinez
why isnt riseup removing the accounts of these domestic terrorists like discord and others did to "white nationalists" then? why are antifa affiliated people on their staff?
Dominic Jackson
Them teaming up with wapo and nyt told me everything I needed to know about their political leadership. There's just no reason to use FF.
Adam Hall
But I already run Nightly in with Pocket/Hello, telemetry, data collection and startup profiling off, I have extension signing off and the multiple tab handler extension provide the duplicate tab functionality. My newtab is empty with a dark noise userstyle. Why should I care?
Gabriel Russell
You could also talk to a shrink and get that shit sorted out.
Great source, bro. Bigfoot lives in my backyard by the way.

Kayden Hughes
>I have no reason to use FF servo. If you can't comprehend how superior to everything servo is then we can't do anything for you. Beside the sjw meme, firefox quantum/dev/nightly is literally the most bleeding-edge and secure gui browser out there.
Jace Carter
can a mod deadass tell me how many posts OP has made
I never got such a strong feeling of shill before
Cooper Lewis

Lincoln Thompson
because chromium is better. gecko considered deprecated since 2009 deal with it virgins
Brody Williams
>You're just using a browser, not supporting a cause. just like the wehrmacht soldiers were only following orders. yeah, i see your point now
Juan Lopez
isn't Firefox Quantum better than all of this shit now?
Hunter Hernandez
Because Pale Moon exists and is better.
James Baker
>We So you're a part of the organization?
Oliver Butler
I'm not the poster calling it a complete lie, I'm just pointing out that random people making Youtube videos aren't reliable sources. Then again, there's no point arguing considering that you're accusing people to be shills the very second they disagree with you and telling them to go to Reddit. Crossboarders are everything wrong with neo-Sup Forums.
The whole alt-right/antifa circus is fucking ridiculous, no wonder the whole world is laugh at us Americans.
Josiah Nelson
I use palemoon because it's still gtk2.
Grayson Ross

Wyatt Long

Nathan Phillips
Is waterfox going to switch to quantum?
Aiden Robinson
I originally intended to write "people laugh at us", but decided to change it, forgetting to change to the correct grammatical tense of the verb. Same applies to the former grammatical error, since you accused me to be one which I decided to change the wording to plural. Deleting the entire post to correct two errors is excessive as the message still comes across clearly.
Luis Thompson
I left in some intentional errors in this message for you to find.
Parker Carter
Sure thing, pajeet

Charles Perez
Can the false equivallency, champ. Your concern over the safety of windows and garbage cans is touching, but that's not terrorism, it's petty vandalism. Meanwhile, almost all terrorist attacks in the USA this year have come from rightwingers, be they raghead or redneck.
Not sure if Poe's law...
(checked) Depends. If you can live without every single damn worthwhile add-on FF had, it's worth trying at least.
Connor Garcia
Why isn't Protonmail, Google, Microsoft and Facebook? Your ridiculous stance on news sources told me everything I need to know about your political stance. There's just no reason to try to argue with you because you're a conspiracy nutjob. You need to go back. >gives money to antifa email >ZOMG GUISE (((THEY))) GIVIN MONEYS TO ANTIFA!!1!1!1!1! You're a moron. Oh, and Lunduke didn't show any solid proof, so shove that video up your ass.
Joshua Adams

Juan Parker
Nobody should have npapi plug-ins, period. Use the better sandboxed ppapi for its only true purpose: historic flash content. WF exists because Mozilla really screwed the pooch with their recent idiotic decisions - the complete nuking of the extension ecosystem was absolutely braindead. No point in using the third place chrome clone.
Joshua Moore
How about always being on the newest version so you aren't regularly exposed to vulnerabilities that have already been fixed months ago? Waterfox is still on version 55, which has been released almost three months ago now.

Carson Cook
I am and it feels like FF did before. All add-ons are working etc.
Does OneDrive/Office365 work on there yet? I stoped using it because my skool uses it, and compatability would be nice.
Levi Harris
Nah, liberals are the ones sucking their dicks. I never put much stock in their intelligence, but the fact that they haven't ran Linda fucking Sarsour out of town shows America barely has a left left (ayy). Hell, most of American antifas are LARPing liberals.
Nigga we're talking about a country where filming or photographing abuse of animals in labs, abbatoirs, farms etc. gets you labeled a terrorist. As far as governments, especially in America, are concerned, "terrorist" is a term whose definition is left vague so it can be used whenever they want. It's our version of "enemy of the people".
Jayden Hernandez
You make some good points but you reach too far to justify your opinion and fall flat. 3/10, it's clear you put minimal effort into this, try harder next time and make sure to READ the documentation

I installed it but extensions seem glitched Also extension icons don't show up in bar
Carter Hernandez
Just use Pale Moon faggots I don't understand Sup Forums's issue and use of mental gymnastics over not using PM at this point
Brayden Moore
It's mainly because of the AdNauseam issue (which I don't care about since I don't use it myself).
Luis Perry
FUD post, prove it. waterfox is one of the few firefox forks that always works with all extensions
pale moon is old, broken extensions, and ugly. why do you promote that shit?
Lucas Bell
Have they disabled the SJW module extensions?
Noah Phillips
I'll think about switching from nightly if/when they ever do
Jose White
which one? firefox is the one with pocket and the other shit, not waterfox.
Liam Green
Firefox 57 is far better nowadays. And if your extension is not upgrading then it deserved to die.
Angel Ramirez
why did they even add Pocket? it seems useless
Jayden Mitchell
to make money so they could donate it to domestic terror groups

my dude, i think it has something to do with the fact that you are using windows xp, not waterfox's fault.

Juan Barnes
what extensions are you using? you could try to disable them one by one and check wich one is causing the bug also why violentmonkey instead of greasemonkey?
Lucas Kelly
because it updated lagged and crashes for me, i switched to vivaldi because everyone shilled it, i suggest it everyone that uses water fox please dont use it anymore. You get html5 and flash in vivaldi in water fox it doesnt provide html5
Chase Watson
why do these retarded posts keep popping up in this thread? are these soros hired goons or something?
