Where is dwb???

desu, Brave has the best potential monetization strategy aside from Jewgle. I hope they succeed.

>>58783418
icecat is not cutting edge

>>58785333
nigga you serious? icecat is not just a fork of ff, they tweak it to enhance privacy and security, and with firefox dropping xul and all the spergs whining icecat is more than fit

>>58783418
Where does Waterfox fall on this list? It feels like shit.

>>58783418

Where is Dillo?

Install Dillo,

>>58785409
Is kind like midori right? How is the javascript support doing? Serious question.

>>58783418
Iridium is THAT good? I mean I've used Nightly for a year and I love it.

>>58783418
>Chromium
>Not in placebo tier
Kys

>>58785403
It's under Placebo Autism Tier.

Been using SeaMonkey for a while now and love it. Has the extensions I need and follows an old philosophy of development that I prefer. Just werks and low on resources. Feels good to not use some ass backwards modern web browser.

>>58785333
IceCat has its own set of recommended addons, they pretty much concern about addons.

See https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/addons.html
and https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Free_Software_Directory:IceCat_extensions_%28proposed%29

who /sleipnir/ here

based nippon browser, with trident and blink support <3

I never see Cyberfox on any of these lists. Its literally just Firefox but without the bullshit

>>58785615
I switched from a couple years of opera to cyberfox last week. After some about:config fiddling, this is super nice, even if it does turn out to be placebo/meme tier.

>>58785600
>nippon
I wouldn't trust a single thing coded by Japanese people.

>>58783418
So the higher your browser the farthest you are in the spectrum?

why would dev browsers be god tier
icecat just firefox freedoms retards
firefox is slow as shit and for people to dumb to realize chrome's the browser to get when oping up ie
chromium and seamonkey should be in placebo

>>58785688
that is he most retarded comment I see today, congrats

>>58785739
why

>>58783418
I'm curious if there's a difference in browser quality between operating systems.

>>58785748
dev browsers? seriously man?

>>58785764
beta browsers then ?

>Cyberfox
>not even on the list

Can’t meme me

>>58785785
kek, I meant the fact they mostly should be on god tier or near, by definition they are cutting edge and privacy friendly, at least for the most part of course

>>58785853
Nightly - Under heavy development. Least stable/secure. First tests of new changes/features; some changes/features introduced in Nightly may be removed before Release and other versions. Only for testing. Should only be used by very experienced users/testers.

>>58785194
Compile from source when possible, repo maintainers are not treating well dwb but the bitbucket version works like a charm.

>>58785879
good point, then again for the target audience is god tier, can't deny that

>>58785920
but isn't the list for daily use i don't want crashes when watching horse porn

>>58785622
Yeah pretty much had the same experience, though i switched from Chromium. I basically really like Firefox because they allowed customization, but the bloat, man, the bloat

>>58786004
thx

kek i remember using firefox back in 2005/6?
it was the first bowser to allow multiple tabs per window, love!

>>58783418
>not using K-meleon

>>58785565
Seamonkey is fantastic. I use it as the main browser for my work computer because the built-in email client and address is amazing for work affairs, especially since you can install an old version of Lightning into the email client to give it a built-in calendar.

>>58783418
just to be clear? are the browsers in the hopeless tier considered good?

and another question
which of the god tier browsers gets me the best battery life on a win10 laptop?

I just need something for DownThemAll that won't jew my information into a Chinese botnet. suggestions?

>>58786400
If on win, maybe chromium.

>>58786414
Firefox or IceCat (if available)

>>58783418
Irirdium is a broken piece of shit that won't even let you open your email half the time. It COULD be the best fork ever but it shoots itself in the foot by being autistic about every single detail.

>>58785999
Doesn't feel bloaty after about:config, it was terrible before. It was being laggy and pausing at every page load past 4 tabs.

I use ungoogled Chromium, how fucked am I?

>>58783418
>nightly
>god tier
Top kek!

>>58786652
There is absolutely nothing wrong with using chrome or chromium. 0 evidence for malicious botnet. People on /g/ are autistic and retarded.

>>58786652
better than the average /g/ user, some ignorant fucks forget chrome tracks their asses and report browsed websites to big brother google

>>58786700
t. Jewgle shill

>>58786082
You've got your history wrong.
Opera invented tabbed browsing.

>Old Opera was so fucking comfy. Wish we could go back to that time.

>>58783418

>>58788789
brave should be top tier but its poorly funded so far

>cuckzilla browsers in god and excellent tier

>>58783418
why PaleMoon in the autist tier

I've been using it ever since firefox changed to become chrome 2.0 and had no issues, besides having about 5 different jewtube tabs open and flash crashing

Vivaldi has custom RGB themeing desu

>>58785615
>bullshit
What sort?

>>58790772
Isn't it just chrome with UI made in javascript?

>>58790490
Poor Kagura

>>58790819
Mostly all of it. Havent used it in a while so i cant remember the details, but i was annoyed that they force halloChat and all that on you

>>58790838
I'm using FF and have no idea what hallochat even is.

>>58783418
Delete ??? tier
Safari preview to botnet
Opera to botnet
Comodo to botnet

On the contrary you dipshit.

>>58791302
Oh wait, you mean like; You want to program it yourself and shit.

Oh okay. Point taken.

>>58785615
Can confirm I use Cyberfox too. Best browsing experience I ever had.

>>58785760
There is. Everything on Linux is utter shit, except the browsers they are shilling for, and you never heard of. I feel like there should be two lists, one for Windows and one for Linux.

>>58783418
Chromium the same botnet tier like Chrome, OP. The only difference is that Chromium's source is available, but that doesn't change the fact that it does the same nasty things like silently downloading binaries, which start listening on your microphone and crap like that.

>>58783418
>opera
>exellent

this must be bait
nonfree software = insecure, possibly botnet

>>58783418
no qutebrowser?

>>58783418
Edge should be higher up simply for being a competitive alternate to Webkit.

Webkit is fucking junk.

>>58786790
Browser tabs have been around since the early 90s newfag.

>>58792194
GNU/Linux*

>>58792512
Linux*

>>58792526
Linux is just a kernel

>Pale Moon on autist tear
Why though? It's a good fork of Firefox with a good themeable UI. It will also continue to support XUL extensions, and with PMKIT, can run almost all extensions on AMO.

>>58792539
Everyone who feels ill at ease when a software collects and neatly organizes their content for easy retrieval is retarded, that's all I have to say about it, and all I ever will say about it.

>>58783418
are there some good text only browsers on android?

>>58787250
IceCatMobile comes with an adblocker by default. Very comfy falamam.

>>58783418
where the fuck is ultron¿¡?!1\

how do I get better start up times, 5 seconds on a SDD, i was just about to switch, but that stoped me

>>58783418
>firefox
>excellent tier


fucking kys

>>58783418
Firefox is so fucking slow, is there any non autistic botnet free version of Chromium?

>>58785622
what tweaks did you do? Their site got me interested, but if the performance is shit, i wont get it.

Best browser to replace comodo icedragon? I want my freedoms but I want my Firefox extensions.

>>58783418
Where is Ghostly? It doesn't work great with 4chan (no comment linking etc), but for general browsing it's fine and it preserves your Freedoms ™.

>>58793743
Firefox or FF nightly
>>58793878
Botnet tier

eww master race

>>58793897
Do you have any criticisms that aren't memes?

>>58793743
Look at the picture in OP do you seriously need spoonfed any more

>>58783418
>god tier: safari
>shit tier: safari

Make up your fucking mind already.

>>58792874
elinks

>>58793987
It was listed as botnet tier on previous versions of the OP image.

>>58793878
>The company that owns Ghostery, Ghostery, Inc. (previously Evidon), plays a dual role in the online advertising industry. Ghostery blocks marketing companies from gathering website user information, but it makes money from selling page visit, blocking and advertising statistics to corporations globally, including corporations that are actively engaged in collecting user information to target ads and other marketing messages to consumers

>>58792194
Firefox/Nightly run very well on Linux. Vivaldi is a train wreck on Linux but runs well on OSX. Chrome seems to run well on everything.

where's Chrome Canary?

>>58783418
>advocating for unchecked, untested and unstable software as "god tier"

Hang yourself my dude.

>>58783418

>>58794685
This

Normie tier - Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge
Normie who posts on /g/ tier - Old Opera, Chromium, Opera

>>58794033
I need to know which ones support Firefox extensions you mongloid.

i like torch, just install an adblocker and you get no ads whatsoever, and you get a build in torrent application
their music thing is also pretty decent

i just found it convenient

I can't load video streams in icecat. Help?

>OTTERBROWSERMASTERRACEREPORTINGIN

>>58795179
You're probably Linux. Cause i cant understand how could anyone use browsers wtithout tabs=in-title bar function on windows

firefox and its derivatives are depreciated and bloated

What makes Chromium better than Chrome?

>>58796689
the fact that it's blue

>>58796698
Shit well I can't argue with that

>what you said

pick one.

>>58796689
No background telemetry and google services slowing it down.

>>58785600
Sleipnir has god tier text rendering but that's all. The ui is seamonkey tier and no addons.
Only good to keep installed to browse text websites.

>>58796955
Is Chromium or Opera better?

>>58796955
[citation needed][dubious]

The only two browsers you should even be considering are ungoogled chromium and firefox nightly.

I'll start with ungoogle chromium. When I compared this to ff nightly, I found that it was marginally faster, but that's about it. The UI is kind of laggy and inconsistent, there are almost no customization options, and it's also a bit annoying the way you have to install extensions.

Firefox nightly like I said before is just a little slower, but not really noticeable unless you have it opened next to chromium. It's got tons of customization options and the entire look of the browser can be changed. There are also a ton of great extensions (for now) and usually more than what chrome offers.

I found similar memory usage between both the browsers. Chromium will use up more memory when there are fewer tabs, but the memory does not increase as much as firefox does when you start opening up several tabs.

The only other browser you should consider is pale moon. This thing is not very fast, but it is extremely lightweight. It usually sits somewhere between 300 - 450 mb of ram no matter how many tabs you've got open. I would recommend this to anyone that is using an old machine with weak specs.
