Last browser standing that will support adblockers in the future.
I can’t wait to fully switch to Firefox as soon as HDR is fully implemented!
Huh?
I recently bought two HDR monitors and noticed there is no HDR support on things like youtube videos. Chromium based browsers support it though so for the time being I’m using Opera GX.
Now do something about its endless thirst for RAM.
Why the fuck is Chrome holding 8 GB hostage when it's minimized??
I've only got 8GB. Good thing I don't use Chrome!
Interesting. Why is chrome faster than chromium? I thought chrome was chromium with bells and whistles.
Predictive preloading has an effect, I’d guess.
That inverted Y axis without defining score is terrible. Just terrible.
For those wondering Chrome is faster according to this guy. Firefox has gotten faster meaning it caught up to Chrome in a GOOD way, vs bad.
Meanwhile I constantly feel like webpages across the board just load like ass these days. Should be no reason Ublock Origin with a fast ass CPU, 32g of Ram and a good internet connection doesn't just instant load websites. Nope, gotta wait for Ublock to kill off a bunch of stuff, cookie banners to pop up... Ask me to login... I'm getting old lol.
It's not even that Ublock/bloat is slowing things down, web sites are plagued by bad development and multi-standard requirements leading to tons of wasted processing time waiting for elements which eventually error out. I've analyzed performance on multiple websites, even big-name and high-traffic websites like Youtube and found that 60%+ of load time is just sitting there doing barely any processing while waiting for extra remote services to be contacted only to never load and finally fail allowing to page to go interactable. It's like having a beast of a computer but forgoing actual RAM in place for pagefile-as-ram; all other components could be amazing, but you're paying that performance tax no matter what.
uBO hard mode + whitelist + LocalCDN. Everything loads as fast as network allows.
