What's bestest fork of Firefox or chrome?
>>
>Firefox
SeaMonkey
>chrome
ungoogled-chromium
>>
Is palemoon and vivaldi a meme too?
>>
>>57615712
Yes
>>
>Icecat
>>
>>57615712
I tried palemoon and I can say for myself that it isn't a meme in terms of speed. I would switch but it isn't compatible with some of the extensions I use.
>>
>>57615712
Palemoon is not a meme dunno about vivaldi

You only get to choose one.

Nightly is the best fork of Firefox
>>
>>57616273
That's not a fork, that's a release channel..

>>57616354
oh.. thx dude, is this a fork ?
>>
>>57616273
This.
Developer is second best, but there's really no reason not to use nightly.
>>
>>57616421
Why exactly is nightly the best? Doesn't it send info back to Mozilla?
>>
Opera
>>
>>57616524
its not better its the same thing
>>
>>57616524
Uh yea you're pretty much testing the browser for bugs and problems with nightly and DE. Plus Nightly is not a Fork.
>>
>>57616524
You can turn that off in the options.
Nightly also forces e10s so it's faster than the other release channels.
You also stay 3 versions ahead of the 'stable' branch, so you get new features much earlier.
As for the 'testing bugs and problems' >>57616555 mentioned, it just isn't true.
I've been using nightly for about two months now, and I don't think it has ever crashed or slowed down. I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches either.

But really, the largest reason to use it is because it has the best icon.
>>
>>57616555
Thanks man. I'll be switching over to Nightly then.

GNU IceCat

>>
>>57616749
I've been using iridium for a while now, but sometimes YouTube videos won't work.
Also, is it still being maintained? I don't think there's been an update in a few months.
>>
>>57616777
v.54 9-Nov-2016
>>
>>57616818
Change log anywhere?
>>
>>57616749
Iridium doesn't block all connections with Google like ungoogled-chromium does.
>>57616777
Huh, YT videos don't work sometimes for me on ungoogled-chromium either, nothing an F5 doesn't fix but it's still annoying. Maybe it has something to do with YT trying to send Google some of your info on a first playback?

Do you know how to remove this bar?
>>
>>57616858
No idea, I've never even noticed that. Maybe try disabling search suggestions from the URL bar.

>>57616850
>nothing an F5 doesn't fix
On iridium there are some videos that just refuse to play no matter what. I'll give ungoogled chromium a try though.
>>
>>57616850
yeah but it's security is like using IE 7.
>>57616839
cant find anything atm, but I think it updates along with chromium stable version
>>
>>57615712
Vivaldi, no. Pale Moon, maybe.
>>
>>57616598
how is anything he said not true
>>
>>57616953
Not necessarily untrue, but he was implying that nightly is full of bugs and unstable, which it isn't.
>>
Regular x64 Firefox is the best.
>>
>>57615691
Firefox 3.x

There has never been a good browser since then.
>>
>>57616975
>he was implying that nightly is full of bugs and unstable

That's not what it sounded like at all. He just stated you test for bugs and other problems, which you do with Nightly
>>
I use Palemoon and I like it. Icecat is my backup choice.
>>
>>57615691
Firefox? Pale moon, highest performance on slow machines

Chrome? Opera, more features
>>
>>57616764
this and only this
>>
>>57616749
Never heard of Iridium before but it does seem pretty neat
>>
wats the best ff config?

>>57617724
mine
>>
>>57616273
>>57616524

>>57616598

Nightly is so much faster than stable and even dev edition, it's not even funny. Whatever they're doing, they're doing it right.
>>
>>57617724
follow the Firefox guide on logicalincrements
>>
>>57615691
forks are gay
>>
>>57615691
Firefox nightly.
It's /comfy/ and just werks.
>>
>>57616676
This.
>>
>>57616764
I've literally never got the binaries to work or even open for me, on Windows and GNU+Linux.
>inb4 not compiling it yourself
I'm a /g/ay, not a /g/entleman.
>>
>>57618150
You unpack the .tar.bz2 then you double-click on the icecat binary inside the directory.

That's all you need to do.

Firefox ESR
>>
>>57618478
What's the point of using this anymore?
Firefox is 64 bit now.
>>
>>57616858
Untick all the search engines on the search page in settings. It will still use your default engine for results.
>>
>>57618478
There is literally no point in using it anymore now that Firefox x64 is a thing now.
>>
>>57615712
Vivaldi has some neat features that remind me of Opera before the fall.
Palemoon is a slightly more stable fork of firefox x64 made by an alt-right furry.
both are decent, but not life-changing
>>
>>57618466
couldn't you just get it from your repos?
Pretty sure Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and Gentoo all have it.
Don't know what to say about windows, but it's just FF with branding removed so you could use any other derivative and it would be the same.

In palemoon? Try older versions of addons (pic related).
>>57618466
Open file in terminal, it will tell you what's wrong.
>>
>>57616850
>>57616879
Been using ungoogled-chromium for a day. YouTube works perfectly fine. No problems so far.

If Iridium doesn't block all connections to Google then it's a no-go.
>>
>>57618098
Which skin is that, senpai?
>>
>>57620508
That's the developer edition dark skin. You can use it with regular firefox using this.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/devedition-theme-enabler/
>>
>>57620508
It isn't the developer edition skin, but that one looks decent.
I'm using the arc theme.
