No. After enabling multiprocess, Firefox has never been faster and smoother for me.

Firefox 52 ESR is the final firefox update, when that dies I'm off firefox for good

Best choice, but then where to from there? This browser has everything I want, so customizable. It's also one of the few remaining that let me still use Java and shit to play some old nostalgic browser games.

I went to download Pale Meme and saw this. Says 32-bit would be better for underpowered computers.
My laptop has
>i3 2.10GHz
>integrated graphics - Intel HD 3000
>but still a 64-bit system

1) Would 32-bit Pale Meme really be better on my laptop than 64-bit?
2) Would that apply to Firefox as well, which I currently am using the 64-bit version of?

The right way of writing it is literally in three other places in pic related. How do you fuck this up?

>update to Firefox 55 after being nagged for weeks
>Mozilla removed support for plugins to access the local filesystem
>the plugin I was using for a custom homepage no longer works

This is really starting to piss me off.
First they removed support for setting your own homepage. I tolerated this because there was a plugin to fix it, and that's one of the reasons I loved Firefox - it was customizable.
Now they broke the plugin.

All I want is a simple web page with shortcuts to my most used sites. That's fucking it. Why can't I have this, Mozilla?

I've used Firefox for over a decade. I put up with their shenanigans over the last few years, but it's starting to get really fucking annoying.

It's like they are purposefully trying to kill their userbase.

>>62316965
I did the opposite.

>>62316965
>>62318321

>>62318097
32 bit and 64 bit wont really make a difference.(it's probably left there for older computers)
if anything i think you should go with the unstable palemoon 32bit because it gets regular updates

>>62318306
>It's like they are purposefully trying to kill their userbase.
That's the goal of the SJW mentality, they want to kill the patriarchy userbase and they have pretty much succeeded.

So long Mozilla you total bunch of fucking cretins. Raising a glass to your demise.

No you see, they've got Soros money now, so they can Police the web and censor websites fro whatever Soros deems 'Fake News'.
I'm not even kidding.

Firefox will have a niche SJW/Atifa userbase and will be directly funded by Soros - but will still somehow have a say at W3C...

Nightly now runs as fast as Chromium. That's all I ever wanted from Firefox.

>>62316785
i moved to waterfox. people claim it's slower but i can't feel a difference at all and it feels good being free from mozilla's SJW bullshit

>>62318348
I did both, at the exact same time

The majority of /g/ has always been for Chrome.

You must be new here.

>>62320344
fuck i bet it feels fucking great to not have to read sjw-style messages on the homepage you're too lazy to change

i envy you

>>62320406
Chrome and chromium share the same code base. Google is even more SJW. What is your recommendation then? Shillvaldi or Brave? Which are botnets completely

>>62320444
I believe brave shares a chronium base. my choice of poison is opera as i'd rather the chink have my data than the yanks.

other than opera, i tend to use qupzilla/falkon.

>>62320169
I think that guy >>62318306 is dumb as fuck

>>62316785
I use firefox developer edition.

I have no idea what the fuck happened, but firefox got just as fast as chrome for me in one of the previous upgrades. Maybe it was a hardware bug that was fixed.

Hopefully IE dies soon. I want to use CSS grid soon. (The ancient proprietary spec IE has implemented doesn't count). Grid combined with Firefox's new grid inspector finally, after years of shitty float-layouts which were basically hacks, finally makes creating layouts for websites a breeze.
I can't believe it took so long.

As much of a meme firefox nightly is. It is damn fast and I finally switched over from chrome. Those saved passwords and cc info becomes an addiction man.

>>62320169
I meant new tab page.

>>62316949
Didnt palemoon ban adnauseam because its "malware", now regardless you use it or not, palemoon is following mozilla and chrome by deciding what to block and what to allow, its shitty behaviour and one of the reasons I dropped firefox and started using waterfox

>>62320406
Code is not sjw. Sjws are some devs and the management. If mozilla dropped sjws today I would go back using it.

>>62320344
I moved to waterfox too and there is no difference in speed, in fact apart from logo is they look almost identical, what is different is that downthemall is working perfectly, some other extensions too which were too 'outdated' for firefox

>>62320971
You can easily bypass Pale Moon's block. It said how to do it right in the announcement.

>>62316965
How do u get vanilla firefox?

Upgraded to 52 ESR after the latest update finally broke some of my addons. Is there a way to enable the dev dark theme? I tried about:config but found no related option and when I change themes in dev tools (F12) it only changes the dev menu look.

>>62321370
uh you go on the firefox website and install it

>>62318437
Yes it's going to be updated to 57 but its going to keep legacy addon support

Is there any actual reason to choose Waterfox over Firefox? I mean: people used to use it because they had official, stable 64-bit builds, but now? What's the point?

>>62321056
>Code is not sjw. Sjws are some devs and the management.
do devs not create code?

then by your own admission at least some code would be common between furryfox and its forks.

I tried Light, LawlietFox, Waterfox, Pale Moon, pcxfirefox and some really specific custom builds made by different people in the past.
NONE of them is as fast as Mozilla Firefox v55 x64, so fuck them.
I don't know what exactly did I touched in the about:config page but it's fast af. I'm never switching again.

Since you're fucking slow, the decision was made a while ago. Everyone switched to dev once australis landed for the developer dark theme. Never looked back.

Nightly 57 and up seems is better, but its far too effeminate for me to use as a main browser.

I've been using nightly for over a year and it hasn't crashed yet, nor have I had any issues since the only addon I use is uBlock Origin and the dev is very fast at keeping up even with nightly firefox. The abandoned addons won't work with stable firefox either (soon), and all popular and relevant addons have been ported or have an equally good alternative now.
As for development features/options, they're there if you're interested but you don't have to interact with them. Any new browser feature will be available to you sooner than on stable builds though.

I actually don't understand the hate towards Firefox. I think it's about the same speed as Chromium and to be honest I had fewer issues with Firefox than Chromium.

Death of the old extensions is a bit sad but if it makes it safer I'm fine with it. Seriously after a month of Chromium, Chrome I realized how much I liked Firefox.
