If your combination of addons results in an inferior performance and 'choppy' user experience, you have the opportunity to:
>a) try the same behavior on literally any other web browser and in time feel like shit again, or
>b) stop using unnecessary shit that bogs down your browser

Your call, mate

>>57510315
I have like 7 addons on firefox and they're all minor shit like mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts for bookmarks

I'm trying Opera right now and it's 100000000000000 times smoother

>>57510393
I'm using Opera developer and it does indeed run smoother on my laptop. Just saying that some addons can and usually do create a conflict and the browser shits itself.

Good for ya, OP.

Try upgrading your 10 year old chinkpad

>>57510522
I have an r9 290 and 8 core cpu

>>57510393
Youre wiling to change browser but cant let go chamged settings in fox

Persobaly i just export bookmarks to a new profile and reinstal addons. Takes 3 minutes

Opera is just chromium nowadays

fox is slightly shit at videos. And some google servives make fox javascript go crazy indeed.
But not gmail

And 4chan is light as shit (with blockers ofc) idk whats ur doing

>>57510293
or you can try safe mode which disables them temporarily...

>>57510674
I just tried with no addons (safemode) and scrolling still feels worse, both regular scrolling and dragging

It's noticable on pages with a lot of shit going on like the catalog page

>>57510649
I'm using a Phenom II @ 3.8GHz and a GTX480 without the problems you're having. Something odd is going on there. Are you sure you didn't accidentally install some mining malware?

>>57510762
Yeah

Is it just as smooth for you when scrolling in the catalog at firefox vs edge(or anything else)?

>>57510239
Vivaldi is decent. It's a step up from FF anyway.

>>57511457
What do you use?

>>57511550
I try out a bit of everything. My main go to browser was Pale Moon, but that is starting to have a lot of compatibility issues on some sites. So now I am using Vivaldi as my main browser.

>>57511591
After seeing I can basically get a mouse gesture for every single thing on vivaldi (unlike opera), and it has ublock origin, and tons of options with tab management, I don't see a reason to use firefox anymore.

I wasn't even using greasemonkey anymore aside from for 4chan

>>57511662
Vivaldi can use tampermonkey which is basically the same as grease monkey anyway, so you can still use 4chanX and OneeChan or whatever.

>>57510239
Have you idiots noticed that the dev of firefox has taken a halt and they stuck at 50.11 beta for a while?

>mfw edge is a better browser

>>57511702
Is there a way to make the scrollbar darker/customize it? only thing I can't find

>>57511776
Install "Just a scroll bar" from the chrome store and set it to dark.

>>57510239
+ for Vivaldi
It's the best of chrome browsers.

UNGOOGLED-CHROMIUM MUSTARD RACE

>>57511827
Shit I just realized I'm missing something else

Is there any chrome addon for drag and drop searching? Like if I drag any phrase and drop it it opens a new tab with it

>>57510393

Opera also has free inbuilt VPN, great for people outside the US wanting to watch restricted YouTube videos

>>57511904
Does vivaldi not?

>>57511893
Just highlight it and right click it.

>>57511966
No thanks too slow, anyway I found it https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dragit/bnmedfjfiggbacggokfddhocaignedbk?hl=en

>>57511966
Do you use anything that turns url text links into actual links?

>>57512091
nvm I just changed it in the native 4chan extension

There's your problem

>>57511457
Why even consider closed source browsers

microsoft aple gogle are one thing but specificaly a browser i would use a closed src from some random dev

(Eell its not like ive actualy used from.any of those 3)

>>57512821
Because I am not paranoid enough to care about some random guy.

>>57510239
Opera is the master race.

>>57510239
use brave

i moved from Firefox to Opera and have been enjoying it so far
especially the VPN so I can watch youtube videos not available in my country

>2016
>not using a Chromium based browser

>>57514012
>>57513953
OP here, I started using vivaldi now and loving it

tried opera but I didn't like not being able to customize mouse gestures

>>57514062
people actually use mouse gestures?

>>57514012
How does their "free" VPN work? How can they afford it without selling user data? If its the same method as hola then in to the trash it goes.

>>57514085
i don't know, i just use it whenever i can't access a website because of country restrictions

>>57510239
>What else is there?

Any number of Firefox forks, specifically ones that remove bloated features you're not likely to use.

Pale Moon doesn't give me any issues with rendering times.

>>57514109
I would want to know if I were you. You dont have to be using the VPN for them to be selling your info.

>>57514169
i don't see what info they're selling that would be useful

>>57510239
GPU acceleration issues maybe? This is how my Arch GNU+Linux ThinkPad works before the "get gpu working again" weekend sessions.

>>57514075
Yeah, it's faster and more efficient

DON'T WATCH YOUTUBE IN YOUR WEB BROWSER YOU TOOL. USE A 3RD PARTY APPLICATION (I use Baka BT player because it can speed up playback, and avoid the boredom that is caused by watching videos at 1x speed)

THERE IS AN ADDON CALLED "OPEN WITH" - USE IT

>>57515473
why the fuck?

>>57515582
Why the fuck what?

Microsoft Edge doesn't have this problem.
