What makes Chrome so much faster than other browsers?
>>51975813
It's not
>>51975825
Lol ok
>>51975813
v8 and modern web technologies
also botnet
Chrome is only good on Chromebooks.
Anything other than ChromeOS's version is bloated ram eating bullshit.
>>51975871
I hope I was never this stupid.
>not using slimjet
What a good goy you are
it just has a better dev team, that's all.
Well Google kind of monopolizes some features in a way
For example html5 60fps was a pretty big deal to me
I switched to chrome until ff updated to have support
If Google owns YouTube, they can get their browser ready first and then confound normies with 'your browser is out of date' 'unsupported' messages.
Normies now switch to chrome
>>51975871
Linux is better on Chromebooks tho
>>51976053
>normies
>using anything but Goole and Microsoft shilled bullshit
Sure thing kid.

it is botnet and it is not fast use firefox
>>51975813
It's really not fast.
I switched back to Firefox about 6 months ago since chrome had an unusually high load on both CPU and GPU when watching YouTube videos and was consuming RAM like shit
Whether it is fast or not seems to depend on the user, for whatever reason. I don't think I have ever seen such inconsistency among modern computers more than in browsers. Fresh installs can help sometimes. My Chrome used to be slow as fuck with constant mini-freezes but with faster video playback. Now, it still has the faster video playback and the mini-freezes seem gone for whatever reason, but I still hate using it anyway. I am still on FF39 (avoiding new age cuckening of FF), but eventually it will get slow and stop being compatible, RIP good browsers.
>>51976170
What's good about Otter compared to Chrome? I'm a massive faggot and know nothing of the base shit, I just want to know if it's any more streamlined that Chrome.
(Also does it support flash)
>>51975813
It's not
v8 is bretty gud, I was reading the other day that they improved it recently in the version 46.
The fact that can be preloaded when the computer starts, makes it load almost instantly.
Some features that other browsers doesn't have right now, like native tab suspension and panels.
It has its own version of Opera Turbo. It doesn't compress that much but it doesn't break the webpages either.

What looks like Firefox but isn't Firefox because I'm sick and fucking tired of Firefox's bullshir.
>>51975813
Edge is much faster
marketing
>>51975813
It's not.
It's only fast in synthetic benchmarks.
Try loading it up on some old machine and then compare to IE or Opera. It's slow and bloated as fuck, on single core Atom it can't even load gmail correctly, good luck scrolling through big webpage or playing video.
nightly and edge are faster

it loads pages in advance before you hit enter

/thread
>>51975813
Its not, but that chrome provides over Firefox is its superior sandboxing making it the most secure browser on the market. The trade off being the higher ram usage and tons of processes but its worth the trade off.
>>51975813
It's not only much faster, but also far ahead of other browsers:

>retards trying to imply that slowfox is even remotely as fast as chrome
lovin every laff
>>51978337
You are right, goy, you are right. Chrome is the best.
>>51978250
And with e10s comming, it will soon have almost the same memory usage ... And of course it has much higher CPU usage when playing YT videos.
Removing old addons API will destroy any customization Firefox even have and new extensions are gonna be as powerful as Chrome's.
And Firefox for Android is nice only if you look at features. It's slow as fuck - laggy and delayed scrolling, blurry text when scrolling and fuck those fucking loading times. Chrome loads web pages at least twice as fast as FF.
Only good thing is that you can use uBlock on Android, but then, it slows loading times even more and you should use it only on rootless devices, as adaway is much better.
It uses more RAM and each tab gets its own amount of RAM and works in a sandbox (ie doesn't fuck with other tabs).
Daily reminder that firecuck can't play youtube's VP9 streams.
Vivaldi is the best
>>51975813
There are 2 kinds of proprietary software: those that are programmed by complete jerkoffs, and those that are programmed by actually skilled programmers.
Chrome is one of the latter. Google makes good software in general.
>inb4 le proprietary meme
fuck off stallman
Essentially with many applications you can trade off memory usage for efficient run and response times. Chrome does this to quite an extreme and consumes a hell of a lot more ram than other browsers.
There are faster less main stream alternatives out there which have already previously been mentioned.

I use safari because botnet and browsing history I like to keep private but it's because chrome loads pages instantly and doesn't wait until the whole page is loaded unlike all other browsers.
What is the benefit of using Chromium over Chrome for the user? (Aside from Chromium being open source etc)
>>51976077
ChromeOS is actually based on Gentoo so it is also a Linux distibution
I'm desperately in need of a new Browser. I'm running 64-bit FF 43.0 and the performance is terrible. What options are out there that aren't running an older fork or running Chrome-based telelmetry/browsers?
I remember there being tons of browsers out there, what happened to them all?
>>51980820
On Windows, convenience. On GNU/Linux not a single reason.
>>51976149
Linux is an OS.
>>51975813
Actual, non-ironic, non-meme development. Something that was lacking in Firefox for years.
>>51976149
>using the smiley with a carat nose
>>51976652
Actually, Otter is still beta; however, it is rather light and aimed a power users. Once it becomes feature complete it will no doubt be the best browser.
>(Also does it support flash)
I have no idea about Flash because no sane person uses Flash in 2015.

look into SJWFox, it is a very subjective topic. Nothing inherently wrong with "firefox", more with its management. Probably still the best option out there. Chromium is still a botnet and many of the others suggested here are prototypes or in beta... Shouldn't be trusted if you care for your privacy and not for your memes. Everyday a new browser pops up and most of them never really get developed to a stable version, but some /g/ users think some of those browsers are hot shit. They may be, but it is just stupid to argue in their favor against every other browser when they are so early in development.
Because google pre-fetches based on a non-public patent that enables them to show you what they already knew you would select.
Good question. I still stick with Firefox because of its extension, but those extensions bog it down and cause Chrome to be considerably faster.
Loading webpages and new tabs feels great in Chrome. Oh well.

Linus Torvalds disagrees, and has started unequivocally that Linux is an operating system.

What? They were catching all kinds of shit for being "homophobic"
This criticism is nonsensical.
V8 and Blink
It's made by the giant that is redefining the web experience; stop being an idiot and embrace it.

It's not fast. It has a good JS engine, but it has very high CPU and RAM usage.

Ι'd јust like tο interјect fοr a mοment. What yοu're referring tο as GNU/Linux, is in fact, Linux, or as I've just now taken to calling it, Just Linux. Linux apparently does happen to be a whole operating system unto itself and comprises a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Most computer users who run the entire Linux system every day already realize it. Through a peculiar turn of events, I was misled into calling the system "GNU/Linux", and until now, I was unaware that it is basically the Linux system, developed by the Linux project.
There really isn't a GNU/Linux, and I really wasn't using it; it is an extraneous misrepresentation of the system that's being used. Linux is the operating system: the entire system made useful by its included corelibs, shell utilities, and other vital system components. The kernel is already an integral part of the Linux operating system, never confined useless by itself; it functions coherently within the context of the complete Linux operating system. Linux is never used in combination with GNU accessories: the whole system is basically Linux without any GNU added, or Just.Linux. All the so-called "GNU/Linux" distributions are really distributions of Linux.
The constant shilling.
