So, now that Firefox by SJWzilla is dead, which of these browsers should I switch to?

Which one does /g/ recommend or use?

Iridium and Ungoogled don't have any botnets.

Fireshit still has Pocket.

>>58782470
Vivaldi is still shit

Question for those using Chrome/Chromium. Is there a point in enabling GPU-based rasterization? Pic related.

For some reason this causes me kernel lockup when using amdgpu/radeonsi drivers. I don't want to roll back to catalyst, so I leave it off.
>>
>>58783416
My only beef with Ungoogled is that it's hard to install extensions. Sure, it's not impossible but it's just PITA.
>>
>>58783426
I'm on nvidya + linux. not sure if it makes any difference.
>>
Safari. too bad you cant use it :^)
>>
>>58783451
Nah, you're probably fine.

On that point, if anyone knows any tips on how to not go fucking insane whilst trying to diagnose gpu/kernel hangs, I'd love to hear it.
>>
>>58783436
>hard to install extensions
how so? go to extensions and add the package
>>
>>58783551
And how do you download them in the first place?
>>
chromium is the only sane choice
>>
>>58783560
most extension creators host their stuff on github
i understand you're talking about chrome store not working
>>
>>58783571
right. I use a few like lastpass and some others that are not on github... so downloading (and UPDATING!) is hard af. I don't even know how to monitor for updates and then upgrade.

Can anyone to explain to be the relationship between Mozilla and SJWs? Also, why is everyone saying that Firefox is dead? I'm obviously out of the loop.

I used vivaldi for over a year and it's mostly great. It's just kinda bad in the sense of some bugs never getting fixed. For example html video playback just randomly corrupts half the time.

fuck brave

chromium is meh, you might as well use chrome and enjoy the sync features

fuck whatever the others are, they're so obscure they cant be worth it
>>
literally WHAT is wrong with firefox, i actually switched back from chrome 3 years ago and none of this shit that people complain about happens to me
>muhzilla r sjw!!!!1!1!1
ah yes /pol/ tourism smothers another board

just wait for quantum. firefox has good days ahead of it because mozilla is the only vendor truly innovating right now (rust, webrender).
>>
>>58784510
>literally WHAT is wrong with firefox,
It's slow, it crashes a lot and it's laughably INSECURE.

it basically fails at most basic qualities that browsers strive for.

and once they kill off XUL extensions, it will be dead.
>>
Is Opera botnet?
>>
Safari!
>>
>>58784538
>slow
this is all down to perception. firefox doesn't feel slow to me whatsoever even on my phone and yet chromium doesn't feel right at all. maybe i'm just used to it.
>crashes a lot
has not crashed on me in the last year. give it a try maybe?
>laughably insecure
has more scrutiny due to the tor browser, but i'll admit that the architecture is dated and doesn't help the situation. however most browser bugs turn out to be memory corruption bugs which is a perfect target for rust.
>fails at most basic qualities that browsers strive for
erm mate i am using it right now, so it can't really be that much of a failure
>once they kill off xul extensions
xul is a real anachronism and increases memory usage, while xul addons add massive attack surface. xul addons are a dying breed, i can't actually name one worth using. umatrix replaces noscript and requestpolicy, ublock replaces adblock plus.

>>58782484
Mine works fine.

I really like Vivaldi, but it crashes sometimes when I drag and drop files. Also, moving tabs is not as fast as in FF or Chrome
>>
>>58784624

you wasted all this time defending indefensible. you need a new hobby.

i can't see an argument here. gonna continue using firefox and supporting muhzilla, internet freedom fighters

nope, chromium and brave are the only free and open source browsers on that list.

I prefer Yandex because it has DNS spoofing and DNS encryption. No need to fuck around with various other programs that might fail.

How is Iridium browser compared to other browsers? How does it differ?
>>
>>58785019
No problem. I was just worried it wasn't getting the open source love it deserved.
>>
>>58785042
I prefer russian botnet to every other one. Google/MS/etc botnet can put me in jail. Russians can't do shit to me.

Just ask John Carmack what he thinks of Google botnet that stored his internet searches and now he has to pay $150 million of his money for destroying the evidence. KEK

Only RETARDS use services from US companies.
>>
>>58785068
I've literally just started playing around with it. It doesn't seem any different than Chromium. Less of the Google botnet I guess.

The only useful feature is the multi-tab.
