>tfw all I want is a 64bit web browser that allows for privacy plugins and doesn't send my data to anyone.

Why is it so hard to find one?

Chrome Canary is 64 bit but it crashes often for me. Specially on Facebook.
>>
not one reason for something like a web browser to need 64 bit
>>
>>45641216
You take the time to avoid normal Chrome but then go ahead and use Facebook?
>>
>>45641201
firefox for windows is still 32-bit. It is 64-bit if you are running it on linux though.
>>
So Firefox?

Nightly x64 works just fine, when it's not adding stupid superfluous features we don't need and slowing itself down.

Chromium, possibly.

because that operating system actually has programs to run, program people actually use so there needs to be some level of compatibility.

not everything is written in fucking assembly

>>45641235
You can get Nightly x64 on Windows you know.

>>45641128
Operafags butthurt all their features that can be found in other browsers got lost.
Just ignore the Opera tears

All that just sounds stupid.

So while we are discussing privacy and web browsers - what is your choice of addons/extensions etc?

Personally I use the following;

ABP+ with Fanboy's List
Disconnect
Blur(Formerly DoNotTrackMe)
HTTPS Everywhere
IBA Opt-out (by Google)
Keep My Opt-Outs
Protect My Choices
>>
>>45641044
/g/ would it be feasible for me to write a personal browser? I have a solid programming background but it seams like a big project.
>>
>>45641390

If you possessed the ability, why not? Just make it compaitable with a few privacy addons or include them in the browser.

Make it light and efficient.

Personally all I want from a web browser is the following;

Bookmarks
Tabs
Option to save passwords
Privacy options
Open source
Preferably 64bit
Simple GUI
>>
>>45641390
Why doesn't /g/ build their own browser? I'll design the logo.
>>
>>45641444
>I'll design the one thing that doesn't need actual programming skill

>>45641481
>what is /g/?
>>
>>45641444

I'll be the ideas guy!
>>
>>45641430
The only parts I'm tripping out on are page rendering and javascript interpretation.
>>
>>45641553

I hope you make it, anon. Keep it to yourself and be free of everything!
>>
>>45641553
If you want a browser that's safe and fast, you'll have to throw JS in the trash.
>>
>>45641588
Or just have an option to disable it. Like it or not, javascript is a pretty big part of how web pages are displayed now and its not gonna go anywhere anytime soon.
>>
>>45641588
rms please.
>>
>>45641588

Interesting...

Tell me, what is a good addon to help with JS?
>>
>>45641688
NoScript for Firefox, ScriptWeeder for Opera
