Yeah sure, so when an update comes they can put the switch back to "send telemetry" and suddenly they have months worth of data on the user.

You think I'm joking? Not the first time they did this, see pic related.

They just put in two switches.

>>51577665
Their tracking is the reason why they want to kill features now that are rarely used.

Just because they are rarely used doesn't man they are bad.

According to the bug report you could previously and you still can disable the actual reporting back so the logs are kept for your own usage.

They will still use gecko/servor for rendering, not webkit.

But they are going to kill XUL and replace extensions with webextensions. So expect no more complex addons anymore at all. You get the same function limited addons as chrome.

I think so, about:healthreport isn't available on Iceweasel.
>>
>>51579602
>so the logs are kept for your own usage
I don't need a folder with 700 logs about what hard drives, graphic cards and addons I use.

Because I run the damn system and know my hardware and software.

Why are you shilling so hard? Mozilla is just wet for my data, a few months and updates later they turn it back on and grab all of it.

How bad are the forks like Palemoon or Waterfox?

Was thinking it just used a different compiler.

With Palemoon however you got an old UI so not all extensions, especially those relying on the new australis will bug. But I never ran into one of them 2bh.
>>
>>51579696
Firefox interacts with the hardware so those logs are useful for keeping Firefox working. For instance a while back Mozilla had to push out an update that addressed an issue that only affected specific models of Intel GPUs+a specific driver version. They needed that hardware information to track down the bug then they sent out an update that disabled the usage of the driver. The only way firefox can find out what you're using is to probe the hardware and since hardware doesn't change often it helps to make a log of it rather than constantly probing the hardware at run time.

Because the data is still useful for Firefox and for the user even. Even if the user never sends the data out Mozilla can issue a patch to firefox that tells it to disable the usage of specific hardware or software and prevent crashes or errors. The log is how Firefox knows what to disable.
>>
>>51579953

Locally stored logs are not telemetry. Telemetry is remote data collection. The setting does exactly what it says it does.

>>51580007
I answered your post, the log is used to compare your configuration against the updates that Mozilla releases. If software or hardware is known to be problematic then it is disabled by default.

IF

They can look with their tool what hardware I currently have.

CURRENTLY

And then decide if I'm affected by a bug.

If the logs are not send they are no use to them. I could havelready switched to AMD or NVIDIA or Intel for all I care when they use that "magic tool" in the future to adress to their bugs.

Who cares about Firefox, Opera or Vivaldi? The real future of browsers and especially Open Source browsers are Qupzilla, Qutebrowser or Otter-Browser. The reason why? Those devs do not allow themselves that Google or Yahoo can buy their loyalty and decide over their design decisions like they did with Opera and Mozilla. These kind of devs have still an opinion of their own and are immune to get corrupted with tons of money.

Pale Moon has no future. Otter-Browser or Qupzilla or Qutebrowser have one! They have a constantly fresh new engine almost every month.

In fact they are still using engine revision 24, it may be enhanced with picked features and security patches which are relevant for Pale Moon, but it is not at the level of a recent underlying Gecko revision seen feature and security wise.

One problem with Otter, i would not keep your hopes high with add-on support. It is not sure at all if QT will add add-on support of Chromium to QTWebengine.

>>51580776
No, i mean the fact that sooner or later Webpages will stop working. Pale Moon has no Javascript promises or misses added Firefox Javascript ES6/ES7 and CSS3 drafts! Many of those have been added since engine revision 24. Pale Moon has been unable to adopt most of them, or Moonchild just sees that bleeding edge drafts not necessary.

But fact stands, Webpages today need many of those features.

There hasn't been a lot of progress on that lately, but the plans sound good.

I'll give you 2/10 but only because of effort. If you had tried even just a bit less, it would have been a 0 for you.
>>
>>51580798
The engine is just renamed into Goanna for lawsuit reasons. There is still only version 24 behind which is gimped with some features and patches. Btw. i am not worried about the security patches, I am worried that the whole old engine has so many not found bugs that will never be discovered, if you constantly change engine each months, you constantly discard all possible holes. Pale Moon hasn't that advantage. The real problem is as written the missing bleeding edge draft support. That drafts are more and more common for many webdesigners, even if those are drafts only and are not at all meant for use in a productivity area. Moonchild seem to have an ideology problem. He considers that drafts not necessary in the code as long as they are not accepted as full standard. But in the meantime, that drafts are getting implemented by more and more sites, and the time that they are called standard is still a long time away.

The problem is more that people implement that drafts instead of waiting that they are called standard. If there are developers who refuse to add them to their product, then they are at a slight disadvantage. And as many of those drafts are maintained developed and implemented by Google, it makes the whole thing even more problematic. It means that all other projects have to work more and more like Google Chrome to make use of them! And that is the reason why Google is winning their fight in killing customization and user choice - They control over those drafts the competition and their design decisions!

Interesting. Then, just launch firefox with a script that will remove the file before it launches. In linux do:

Start with >>51580795
Then look at smart contract and cluster management frameworks (erights is uses a lisp dialect for example)
Then deliver a trivial http server for localhost to redirect requests either to ipfs (GET) or the smart contract system (POST).
Then implement /g/oogle on top of that.
>>
>>51580913
These are the most least important additions ever. What counts are ES6/ES7 or Javascript promises. Pale Moon does not support most of that ones. Granted, Otter Browser and every other browser based on QTWebkit misses them too. But that problem will be solved with QTWebengine, which makes Pale Moon to the one with the least bleeding edge webf-eature support.

I didn't say that it's preferable to it being implemented. I'm just saying it's not really true that Firefox doesn't have D&T support, as it's currently available in the form of a patch and is currently in review / in development. According to the patch maintainer (on 2015-10-16):

For you the same suggestion: Otter Browser, Qupzilla, Qutebrowser - or if you really feel the need for Botnet, Vivaldi or Slimjet - Using Google engine but no Google Botnet and instead the less dangerous Slimjet or Vivaldi Botnet.

Opera has give up features to become Chrome, all that suggestions above will become Chrome or are already Chrome but have all the features Opera has delete, or have most of them.

The only features that firefox has over palemoon are botnet.

Nope. ES6/ES7 and javascript promises are also missing in Pale Moon. The reason why i never recommend that one. Future proof browsers with customization will all have Blink engine in the future.

That was pretty interesting, especially the proof-of-concept. No wonder people keep saying AMO is currently in an almost-abandoned state by maintainers.
>>
>>51581287
I wonder how Google will react once they realize that their simple non customizable engine will be "abused" that way by others - wondering if Google will stick out some cheap dirty tricks to force that kind of devs to implement minimalism too. Perhaps they draw them right infront the law for abusing Blink engine that way with a protected trademark argument (simplicity, minimalism, design only)?

Or will they just implement some hindering functions which will make every advanced usage impossible? Be assured, Google will answer to that "abuse" in one way or another. They worked so hard to get Mozilla and Opera in their bed and suddenly a bunch of rebel browsers rise with their engine and unwanted features seen from Googles point of view :D

Google more often than not just flat out ignores the people who point out its flaws. My favorite example being their tendency to close large swaths of bug tickets every few months using effectively rand().

That emperor has no clothes and wears really strong earbuds.

Mozilla goes the other way and just refuses to accept reason. Proud ignorance, or pride in placing ideology above reason and logic. A large drive towards disregarding and even hating the hacker culture and power users that brought them early success.

I don't know which is worse.
>>
>>51581214
So WebExtensions and addon signing are good ideas but the automated review is prone to false positives. Good thing addons are also manually reviewed before they're allowed to be listed on AMO. Unfortunately extensions hosted elsewhere don't have to be manually reviewed so the glaring problem with XUL addons continues to exist there.

Pale Moon does not support Promises. This can be even found on their boards if you look around fag! They support the earlier revision which was called different. But not the new one called promises. Or at least not all critical necessary features out of it which many pages already need to work!

Most rendering engines rely on system rasterizers for fonts. Rendering Engine =/= Font Rendering.

That's like saying the browser is responsible for how images are rendered.
>>
>>51581407
It is not about usage, but Google is a rabid customization and user choice hater. The fact that many people using more and more Blink forks which offer features like that is what makes Google angry, market share plays no role. When you are using a Blink based browser, you end up contributing to Chrome market share in one way or another.

Previously, on Windows, Chrome used to render using GDI, while Firefox used to use Directwrite. However, Chrome has now adopted DirectWrite too.

Now, the differences are mainly related to Blink vs Gecko interpretations of settings like <code>letter-spacing</code> and forgetting to set <code>font-weight</code> to normal when using font-faces.

It could also be an OS problem. Back when I still had Windows, I didn't notice a huge difference between Firefox and Chromium (apart from google making the retarded decision to make fonts smaller).

(Sorry for being late to reply.)

2 big problems:

1) Seamonkey stays as much as close to Firefox engine revisions

2) When Firefox has no more XUL Seamonkey will most likely drop it too as Seamonkey council has too less manpower to support development on their own - which makes Seamonkey into another stripped down and feature less Chrome clone!

I currently use a fork of Firefox called Waterfox. Essentially, it's the same browser with some optimization flags passed to the compiler. Because it's unbranded, it's been able to not have some of the anti-features of new Firefox updates, namely the inability to run unsigned extensions.

But it is becoming more and more clear that Mozilla is actively trying to go against the will of its users, and I am seriously considering switching to PaleMoon... as soon as TreeStyleTabs starts working.

It's sad what happened to firefox. 5 years ago it was the dominant 3rd party browser, fully supported across the web, fully featured yet lightweight and infinitely customisable.

I don't want to blame everything on >muh sjws but it really went to shit after the CEO left. Now it's bloated, missing features, broken features, worse compatibility than chrome with marginally better extension support (and even that is getting removed).

I used to use nightly for some extra things that weren't available in normal ff, moved to ff when nightly was more broken than not, moved to chromium for better compatibility and performance, and eventually to full botnet when chromium stopped supporting the proprietary video codecs from chrome.

Do Vivaldi or Palemoon have uBlock Origin, Greasemonkey?
>>
>>51585188
Palemoon has both, vivaldi has neither.
>>
>>51585188
Palemoon has both of those. I think Vivaldi supports chrome addons, so uBlock Origin should work there too.
>>
>>51585201
vivaldi has ublock origin and all other chrome addons
>>
You guys should enable telemetry then they will see how many people actually use the features they want to remove
>>
>>51585150
it doesnt seem to periodically cycle through user agents at all, from reading the description. User Agent Spoofer has many other features like disabling browser pings, randomizing screen size and timezone info. I have found nothing else even remotely as good at preventing fingerprinting
>>
>>51585314
Wait, which addon are you talking about? User Agent Switcher or Random Agent Spoofer? Old versions of both of those should work in palemoon.

>>51585364
Truly a shame. Why the fuck are they removing features? Why do they think that imitating Chrome's worst parts will make them relevant again?
>>
>>51585450
Money speaks louder than words.
>>
>>51585340
Oops i meant Random Agent Spoofer.
Good idea but I tried installing old versions and the first one that works is over a year old and is missing many important features. Eh maybe it's good enough
>>
>>51585314
>User Agent Spoofer has many other features like disabling browser pings, randomizing screen size and timezone info
How bad will it break page layout though, or doesn't it matter since it's rendered correctly client side anyways?
>>
>>51585085
yeah, it's pretty stuttery

personally I'm fucked. with whatever rendering changes they made in fx42 it now takes 2-3 seconds before the initial paint when I switch to the browser window or open any dialog, like the Save File window, if the profile has hundreds or thousands of saved tabs

was forced to go back to ESR. I'm writing this from nightly as a test and it's still acting just as shitty, so when ESR moves on to 45 I'm out of luck
>>
>>51588049
Well then you are basically forced to use Palemoon. Better broken ES6/7 and shit css than nothing at all.

>palemoon dev doesnlike MSE because DRM possibilities
>suggests using flash for youtube

Can he be more wrong than this?
>>
>>51578641
He's probably intentionally trying to sabatoge, or maybe he's from /g/ and posts the "bugfixes" just soa he has fuel to bitch with. For example the ftp issue actually never went through. People in charge were like "nah, that's a stupid idea"
>>51578671 you have been rused

>>51578570
>Only options are ancient furfag firefox fork, shitty botnet fork, and broken beta botnet fork made by irrelevant devs
how did everything go so wrong so quickly
>>
>>51588301
That Mozilla dev argumented with Chromium / Chrome doing this this as well. I can see how most Chrome users (not all) are dumb drones, as in .1 - .2 % were using Chrome's inbuilt ftp functionality they claimed.

There is not a single week where I don't have to access some ftp through my browser to fetch some archive. Then again I don't have telemetry on and they cannot see how many people actually use it.

I do believe there is an intersection between users without telemtry and users that love these functions that they try to kill.
>>
>>51580469
>ending with few features
They literally started with just the rendering engine and the address bar, the first versions of the new Opera didn't even had bookmarks
>>
>>51588358
Just like how in the CPU market and graphics market it boils down to two major players. The only enemy of Chrome may as well be Internet explorer in the future.
>>
>>51580226
>Not 'enough' people were using those features, so they are useless. Firefox usage below 10% when?
The majority will jump ship by 46, even if they don't like Chrome they will end up in Chrome, some others will put up with Palemoon, and others will had transitioned to ESR 45 until Palemoon gets gud or ESR 45 gets deprecated

That applies to preventing vulnerabilities at all cost
Patching them is something stupidly neccesary, specially if the CVE is public, anyone recognizes that

Just go to the designated street Rajeet, since when has Mozilla hired DESIGNATEDS?

>>
>>51588562
I completely agree, most likely only ad companies get wet over the thought of them.

The web in it's current state is cancer anyway. More websites introduce mast ehads and nav bars that scroll with the page and permanently shove themselves into your field of view. Forcing me to go as far and block them, basically removing site functionality.

Don't steal my screen space, ffs.

could you just edit the telemetry data to some string repeated over and over?

Don't feel so triggered Pavel, it's just banter
>>
>>51588244
testing it on a smaller profile
had to roll back tree style tabs, tab stats. nice being able to get a functional and static status bar without having to use an addon.

my userChrome is tailored to removing stupidity from newer firefox versions so there's some housecleaning to be done

atleast I have a way forward when firefox dies.
>>
>>51588596
It probably would be reset to the old settings after an update, then Mozilla would say that the "abuse" of telemetry had forced them to do some faggot shit to shove telemetry on everyone

Good choice I run two portable browsers along FF as backup myself. One being a botnet free Chrome fork with mostly just ublock and tampermonkey.
Will make the transition easier when their browser kicks the bucket.

So otter, qupzilla, qutebrowser or pale moon?

it's a bit sad actually. I started using netscape navigator back in 1995 and saw that die.
now I get to watch the decline of phoenix/firefox

same here, really need to find a new browser after all the bullshit lately

Just needing an extension to set your own newtab page was the biggest fuckup though

just installed this palemoon here. hory fuck shit is fast, I was annoyed with chrome for lagging in fucking web pages. feels good
>>
>>51589244
You can do it in about config, but Firefox is so shit it will always move cursor focus into the url bar.

So yeah if you want to use a search engine in new tab, then Custom New Tab is the only option.
>>
>>51577707
is there a way to list all options?
diff on them between versions could be helpful to know if they are trying something fishy
>>
>>51588811
Try them all, what do you have to lose

As a qupzilla user i do think the first thing you should do is screw around in the preferences before holdong any opinion on qupzilla. Its starting settings are shit.

>>51589387
not him
I used to use qupzilla as my daily driver, but the problem is there are some subtle memory leaks that will bite your ass after a a day or so, It's javascript engine also sucks ass and a some of shitty sites that use extensive javascript will lead it into crash because of memory issues

Other than that and lack of addons, it ain't half bad. Eventually I decided to fuck it all and don't give a shit and use botnetium now
>>
>>51578642
if you don't personally parse the source code yourself then software being open-source or not is irrelevant, because it's not like you should blindly trust anyone who claims to be auditing the code, right?
