I was at a party a few weeks ago and when we needed to use a web browser, one of the first things that happened was one of the attendees taking the computer to install FireFox.
Good

Been using Firefox for years. Still a stupid dumb human, no fur.
Being a furry is a choice, not something that happens to you :) You’ve already taken the first steps
I am urging you both to install the Firefox Waifu Theme :3
thanks, i like the blue one more tho :3
A theme of the outer space where a Firefox girl lives
Sweet. Dreams.
Wait, didn’t you all get the free furry butt-plug when you downloaded FF?
I’ve been walking around with it “plugged in” for 20 years. I did try Ice Weasel once, but that was simply too cold for my sensitive insides.
There already getting railed by google
Hey, I don’t kinkshame
What if kinkshaming is a kink?
That is something I have personal experience with, but I don’t partake in
where?
My Firefox is sitting happy eating about 30GB of RAM right now…
So you have 64gb total?
Maybe just 32 GB?
How many tabs do you have open?
Yes.
As for the last question, yes the murring and the tail thingy aren’t forbidden, to be clear.
Somebody knows a bit too much 😏
Orion > Firefox.
I’ve not heard of orion before, what do you like better about it? Is it WebKit based?
Hi, not the Original Commenter but an occasional user of Orion.
It is webkit based but has full compatibility for all Firefox and Chrome extensions. Plus in my experience it’s really fast at loading stuff - noticeably so.
It’s being developed by the people behind the Kagi search engine which is also really good
It is webkit based
So not better than Firefox and OP is just silly.
Why would being WebKit based make it bad? Because it supports the web engine duopoly?
On an iPhone in specific it means there’s no real difference between them beyond mostly the cosmetic. It’s not just that it’s WebKit, it’s that it’s WebKit that’s also behind Apple’s walled garden.
Firefox that doesn’t render with gecko isn’t really Firefox, is it? I mean I get that Mozilla endorses the app, but it’s not the same Firefox as it would be almost anywhere else.
As I mentioned above, it’s quite snappier than safari and even Firefox. It’s clear that they’ve worked on performance.
That’s not my point. My point is that all iOS browsers are essentially the same browser because they’re forced to be.
i just want a web browser that doesn’t cause me to have strokes, and doesn’t give me internet aids.
How fucking hard is it to write a piece of software jesus fucking christ.
Motherfucker have you tried looking at a browser implementation? It might just be the single most complex piece of software on the planet today. It’s basically an OS, JS environment and GUI toolkit in one
thats exactly the problem.
That would make sense as to why it’s such a dogshit piece of software, wouldnt it? That’s why windows is bad after all.
Also fun fact. I recently had a spat with firefox taking like 30s to startup, apparently for SOME fucking reason, someone thought a 25s timeout would be sane in the event that discord doesn’t detect xdg-desktop-settings or whatever the specific was.
Just download more RAM
The fun part about percent is that it will increase linear to the source.
Still takes 40%
Just create more ram out of thin air with zram. I’ve got 60gb now. 30 something actual ram (some of my 32gb gets allocated for the APU) and the same amount as zram. I can run 2 chrome instances now!
But why would you want to even run one Chrome instance?
One is dedicated to the power of our lord and savior jesus christ.
The other is for Kim Possible foot porn.
Ngl I was pretty upset when Kim got together with Ron when I was a teen lol
Isn’t that just a fancy page file?
Yeah, with lz4 your zram will be fast too so you can do some gaming with it
Show off. I have 12 GB of DDR3, and a swap partition on spinning rust.
(save me)
Komi can communicate??
Through text.
Komi gonna rip into your furry ass
They should, might be in a better mood then…
Both have anime profile pictures so both are losers
Ngl, I’ve never had issues with either for ram. my experience with Firefox is mostly the sameas chrome with ram usage. The main reason Im on Firefox is cause it’s been a whole lot more stable for me than chrome.
Also, adblockers still work.
I switched from Chrome to Firefox on my Mac desktop and the memory usage was cut in half at least. I only use it on my Linux notebook, so I have no idea about the memory usage difference there, but there was an unquestionable difference on the Mac. It has 16 gb of ram and is from 7 years ago, so it was before the M-chips and their ram hunger and still gave me memory warnings.
Now I never have memory issues on it. All it took was switching to Firefox.
So it definitely makes a difference on some systems.
It’s about the amount of tabs you keep open. Every site will take a piece of RAM and a max of 5Gb per tab if not mistaken.
I think GChrome has a feature now where it tries to “kill” the tabs you’re not using to mitigate this issue but it’s opt in.
If the majority of ram isn’t being utilized you either have a problem or have entirely to much ram. I’m not saying programs can’t be memory hogs, but they should utilize what resources are there to perform better. It would be like turning on a flash light, using all of the power and then covering half the bulb while trying to cross a field in the dark. The CPU and GPU use more electricity when running at higher percentages, ram is negligible for the most part.
i always hear this but it’s obviously not true lol, if i ever see my ram reach max usage the computer shits itself and i’ll likely have to restart it because most things become utterly frozen
full RAM utilization is patently not something you want.
But they said “majority” not “entirety.”
This is a post about being upset chrome is using 40% of RAM on the system
Who only has a single program running at a time on their PC? Are we in the 90’s?
Everyone uses multiple programs. Who said you’d only have one program open?
Using 40% for one of your most important programs seems totally reasonable to me.
In my personal experience chrome rarely gives up ram and will starve programs that need it more. While that works if you’re only running chrome, if you’re using it in the background while doing something else then you can find important programs running out of memory. The result is that you have to close and reopen chrome.
Granted, I haven’t used chrome or a chromium-based browser in a very long time, so chrome might have gotten better at giving up memory when other programs need it. However, if I’m playing a game, doing rendering, working in a game engine, etc, then usually I have a browser open in the background with YouTube or Twitch and/or programming/visual references. I don’t need or want a browser consuming as much memory as it can, just enough for it to play videos, show me reference images or tell me how to program something. It absolutely doesn’t need +8gb of ram to do that (I saw it hit 16gb once, which was when I switched to Firefox; 16gb is ridiculous no matter how many tabs you have open).
Chrome might not be the only program running.
