I noticed Firfox aggressively changing my search engine from searx to google. Pisses me off and looking at more lightweight alternatives.

What is your favourite browser?

What does anon think about Firefox Quantum?

Quantum = sjw aids

unfortunately Chromium is sjw mega-aids


 No.832926>>832927

my fav browser is chrome

this is why:

if I accidentally set the search engine to ddg

chrome will humor me and go along with it

but if I type in a wrong url and get a chrome "wtf is this even page"

it has a tiny little link

that invites you to use a search engine instead

but not just any search engine, and not your configured search -- it is google search!

small touches of care like that make me feel loved by the devs

For lightweight stuff like parsing html in emails I use w3m.

For image boards I'm working on an application that I can use to browse them.

For everything else right now I use firefox, but might eventually switch to something like w3m for general bowsing.

Hi /tech/ . One of my favourites Greasemonkey scripts is "Doodlegone", which removes google "doodle" (the annoying thing that is in place of the logo sometimes and which most of the time is filled with leftism propaganda) and replaces it with a plain logo

Well, now with FF Quantum, it doesn't work anymore. It did before the update, and it works fine in Icecat.

The code is very short and simple, would you lend me a hand with this?

browsers all suck. All of them. Terrible in every way. That being said lightweight browsers like midori, uzbl, >>832919 etc, tend to be the most lightweight and efficient for casual browsing. I'm using palememe myself right now strictly for adons but I'm getting to the point of just abandoning all my favorite ones for a more smooth experience.

Qupzilla for me. It has some basic built in stuff like Adblock and Greasemonkey but is faster than pretty much any browser I've tried.

didn't work, don't know why.

However, i found a doodle remover, modified it and now it replaces with your custom image.

My version works fine in FF Quantum.

based on this one that plain removes the logo:

No, GNU icecat and palemoon are not botnets as you can turn off update checks and no firefox botnet because they are different codebases now.

We have these:

>Firefox user

>Firefox changed one thing

>wants to change browser

>makes a new thread

like what, 3 times a week?

Pick one that supports your extensions, change the search engine and turn off telemetry. Yes, Firefox sucks, that's why they made Brave. Yes, Firefox is run by SJWs, that's why every other browser exists. Vote with your wallet, or your userbase.

I jumped off flamingwreckagefox because of the constant crashes and bloat. Switched to Opera and havent had a single crash once in years. You can get chromium extension support on Opera which helps a lot of the missing plugins. The only thing I miss from Firecucks is the ability to tag my bookmarks. But id rather have stability and not have to worry about a single tab crashing the whole browswer with 10+ tabs open.

Didn't notice any real big difference in any of the Firefox forks aside from devs, never tried Vivaldi but it reminds me of Opera Neon.

>firefox quantum

i've noticed the last week or so that autocomplete in the url bar will default to every url but google.

example:

when i type in 'g...' it will autocomplete as 'guerrillamail.com'

when i type 'go...' it will autocomplete to 'google.com'

example:

i delete 'guerrillamail.com' from browsing history and bookmarks. firefox cannot autocomplete to 'guerrillamail.com'

when i type in 'g...' it will autocomplete as 'getcrypto.com'

when i type 'go...' it will autocomplete to 'google.com'

example:

i delete 'getcrypto.com' from browsing history and bookmarks. firefox cannot autocomplete to 'getcrypto.com'

when i type in 'g...' it will autocomplete as 'getweeddude.com'

when i type 'go...' it will autocomplete to 'getweeddude.com'

and so on.

i use google more than i wish, for programming questions. probably hitting google.com more than 50 times a day. by far it is the most visited site in my browsing history (as you can tell, i need to make up sites that start with 'g' for my examples above. there aren't a lot in my browsing history firefox can choose to autocomplete to). yet firefox autocompletes to sites i haven't visited in weeks / months. has anyone else noticed this? is mozilla fucking with google?

i think i may have fixed this by going to about:config and setting keyword:enabled to false but it's too soon to tell.

You seem to be confused. TOR is not a browser.

You can't use TOR on another browser than Mozilla, so it's a browser.


 No.848885

That doesn't make sense, Mozilla is the company behind Firefox.

You can use TOR with other browsers, but the issues lie with fingerprinting and possible DNS leaks, iirc.

For normie browsing pick your poison. I like qupzilla and ungoogled-chromium, although the lattter is always quite behind in terms of security updates, so use it with caution.
