>>Pale Moon is now building on the new Goanna engine instead of Gecko. Although close relatives in terms of web technology, they are not the same under the hood and any reports of bugs with the layout/rendering engine should be as detailed as possible to allow us to pinpoint the cause of the bugs and fix them
>>You will need to update your language packs
>>The layout parser/renderer has received many updates with this change over to Goanna, improving web compatibility and standards compliance in many areas.
>>The browser user interface has received updates, making it more compatible with Windows 10 in many respects and more in line with the general styles of the operating system version it is run on in terms of the shapes of controls and color setting.
>>Updated graphics/media support: Pale Moon now supports the WebP image format, properly scales EXIF rotated JPEGs, has updated support for different WebGL texture formats, improved scaling of vector images, updated libpng, libjpeg-turbo, libvpx, and misc other upstream libraries/modules, and more!
>>The library now has a scope bar (pops up when searching) with the option to select what you want to search in (either bookmarks or history) and the option to save your searches.
>>Many more changes...read the release notes
>>Massive amounts of security updates since November 2015 to present day

>>52632736
So what's the point of this new rendering engine ? What does it bring over gecko ? The biggest lack of gecko is efficient CPU usage, I don't see the point of making a fork if not to fix that.
>Furrycux isn't multiprocess yet
I'm aware of this, and e10 is fucking garbage. What the fuck is mozilla doing, all the other non-gecko based browsers have it for years.
>>52632736
Multithreaded isn't the same as multiprocess. And technically speaking, Firefox has used two processes since 3.6 when it split flash and Silverlight and the like off into their own process.
They are still nowhere near Chrome, or IE/Edge though.
>>52632738

>>52632412
I used to use Pale Moon when it actually had a lead on other browsers.
Browser fanboys can kill themselves.
Firefox or Pale Moon is only useful in the case of NPAPI support.
Now I am currently using the latest version of Opera. Edges out Chrome, has useful tweaks, and works better on older hardware compared to Chrome.
Looks beautiful
>>52632827
But firefox doesn't take advantage of multicore processors. Why is threading better than multiprocess which uses several cores ?
I'd use Chromium if I could change colors the way I like, and fonts, and also get rid of the horrible while flash it does when loading up a new page.
>>52632874
>But firefox doesn't take advantage of multicore processors.
And how do you figure that?
>Why is threading better than multiprocess which uses several cores ?
It's more efficient
>>52632907
>And how do you figure that?
Because it only uses one core on my computer.
>It's more efficient
Then why is firefox so slow compared to chrome-based engines, or internet explorer (or edge) ? Is it that mozilla are incompetent ? I tried e10 on nightly and it's total garbage.
>>52632942
>Because it only uses one core on my computer.
There's separate thread for important shit like UI obviously, and outside of that I don't see where you need more parallelism in a browser. If " it only uses one core on my computer" then it didn't need any more cores at that time.
>Then why is firefox so slow compared to chrome-based engines, or internet explorer (or edge) ? Is it that mozilla are incompetent ? I tried e10 on nightly and it's total garbage.
Don't know what the fuck you are talking about, Pale Moon runs smooth as butter for me.
>>52632999
>and outside of that I don't see where you need more parallelism in a browser.
When I'm loading a high number of tabs from a previous session, it takes ages while in opera (which is chrome based) it's fast as fuck.
>>52632999
>Pale Moon runs smooth as butter for me.
I have a q6600 as a CPU, and it's not smooth as butter for me. Maybe on your [email protected] it's butter smooth, but not on my old computer.
>>52632864
How do you get it to look like that?
>>52633051
That's just the simple white theme. If you can write CSS you can make Pale Moon look like whatever you want.
Why can't they and firecux get their fucking shit together for the Android version? I have it because you can install ublock as an add-on but goddamn the browser is barely functional.
Yiff in hell

>When I'm loading a high number of tabs from a previous session, it takes ages while in opera (which is chrome based) it's fast as fuck.
And how big of a percentage is that of your daily browser usage? Does Opera even load the tabs until you click them?
>I have a q6600 as a CPU, and it's not smooth as butter for me. Maybe on your [email protected] it's butter smooth, but not on my old computer.
I've used PM on an E8400 without any problems. How is this "slowness" you're experiencing even apparent? How much does it hamper your "productivity"?
>>52633050
Opera is faster than Pale Moon. Please ignore this pleb. It is common knowledge that modern operating system design is built on maximizing multiprocessing.
Anyone who insists on threads needs to update their books.
>>52633123
>operating system design is built on maximizing multiprocessing
Which is what threads are for you cock-munching mongoloid. Don't even talk shit about OS design if you don't know the difference between threads and processes. A process per tab is unnecessary workload on the CPU for almost no practical gain.
I used this instead of Firefox for a while. It was the previous version, couple weeks back.
It kept crashing so much after it had been on for a while and crashing was main reason why I switched away from Firefox.
Now use Vivaldi in Win10 64b. Enterprise.
>>52633107
>And how big of a percentage is that of your daily browser usage?
Each time I start my computer, which is several time a day (in the morning, at noon, after class).
>Does Opera even load the tabs until you click them?
There is an option for this (lazy session loading) but I don't use it.
>How is this "slowness" you're experiencing even apparent?
Pages are slow to load when they load instantly on opera.
>How much does it hamper your "productivity"?
If you count the time for start up, then starting the session, then 1 second each time I load a page, probably a couple minutes everyday. On a week it's 14 minutes. On a month it's 56 minutes, which is also 12 hours and 6 minutes per year. That's quite a lot, if you ask me.
Why would you even use palemoon over opera ? Does the google botnet hamper your "productivity"?
>>52633051
https://addons.palemoon.org/themes/complete/
Here, I use White Moon theme. Tabs on top looks better with it too
>>52633156
I'm entirely aware between the differences and implications of each.
When's the last time you contributed to OS development Jamal? Not as if we are dealing with a single CPU with a primitive scheduler.
Spawning multiple processes and allowing the OS to context switch has less overhead than making threads when you actually care about sharing resources.
>>52633188
>Pages are slow to load when they load instantly on opera.
Weren't there render time benchmarks somewhere? Should be easy to know for certain
>If you count the time for start up, then starting the session, then 1 second each time I load a page, probably a couple minutes everyday. On a week it's 14 minutes. On a month it's 56 minutes, which is also 12 hours and 6 minutes per year. That's quite a lot, if you ask me.
And if you multiply it by 50 years it's even more. But you can look anything that way. Scratching your ass takes way more time.
Besides, most of the time I open links in new tabs on the background
>Why would you even use palemoon over opera ? Does the google botnet hamper your "productivity"?
Customizability and add-ons, the value of which anybody who's not an utter pleb should see
>>52633259
>Spawning multiple processes and allowing the OS to context switch has less overhead than making threads when you actually care about sharing resources.
Sounds hard to believe
>>52633270
>Scratching your ass takes way more time.
It's still more useful than waiting a second each time I load a page. Sometimes an ass itches and you need to scratch to feel better.
>most of the time I open links in new tabs on the background
Yeah, it's probably the better thing to do when you get 1 second white screen when loading a tab. They still should improve the rendering speed, rather than having users to rely on workaround like loading new tabs in background.
>Customizability and add-ons
I admit I don't use many addons, just ublock and a few other things like a capture extension or 4chanX. On that I can't really tell. I sure would like opera to be more customizable, but I can live with its design, while I can't live with having one second latency each time I load a page.
I wish Firefox and other gecko-based browsers would just get their shit together. I used Firefox too once, and a lot of people around me. Nowadays I can't think of anybody using it. I feel bad because I liked the "philosophy" behind (open source, customizable, etc...), but it just couldn't keep up with other browsers. Even MS got their shit together with IE and now edge.

Well it may be that I'm more used to loading times since I never used Chrome derivatives for a long time. I'd still like to see benchmarks but all google brings up is useless JS benchmarks
>>52632694

>>52633381
Install chrome store plugin for opera.
Profit??
I'd love for someone to do some benchmarks and show how embarrassingly bad it performs.

It’s over! Pale Moon has won and conquered!
Oh... Btw. i forgot the most important... ES7 scores... 1 single fucking percent!
And no page which uses recent Javascript drafts works with Pale Moon. Hell, even Cnet is broken - you can log in but you are unable to change your user details and user settings.
Another totally broken page is Jamedo. What the fuck! Seriously, Pale Moon guy needs some real coder which is actually capable to reverse engineer/backport real necessary features which are needed for page compatibility.
But with the management of Pale Moon right now and if "development" is continuing like that, the browser will be in utterly heavy troubles at the beginning of next year!

Bugfixes / Security updates. Running stale software is a security concern.
Mark my words... in one year or about a bit more one of 2 things will happen, Pale Moon is no more or Moonchild is forced to switch to Australis, which he hates and dislikes so much because page compatibility for Pale Moon hits bottom ground.
Interested how he will explain such a shift to an Australis code base to his user base. Very interested to see him argue! Of course only if Pale Moon is still alive at that point.

lmao at people who think browsers need to bend over to proprietary schemes made by men in suits who feed their DRM garbage to indian codemonkeys
>>52637592
Seriously? Switching to the latest available Australis code base is equal with becoming an up to date browser again!
If Moonchild still wants to offer customization, he just have to bundle Classic Theme Restorer into the browser, like Cyberfox, and problems are solved.
>>52637646
What does "up to date browser mean in your book"?
>>52637679
A recent engine which supports more than 33% of ES6 and more than one % of ES7 features from the Javascript drafts set.
>>52637704
>why doesnt my browser adhere to non-standards and not bend over to proprietary DRM
>>52637679
C'Mon guys! Drafts are the future standards. More and more website developers use bleeding edge drafts to build their pages because of the impressive possibilities of what you can do with that.
If you suck in drafts, you suck in page compatibility. And it is an illusion to say that webpages will stay mostly with the standards these days.
If you are a designer, you will implement bleeding edge drafts sooner or later, because you do not want to be left behind!

>>52637751
when they become standards, we should implement them. Bleeding edge is another word for buggy.
>>52637794
That is the normal way. But that is not what web designers think of them today. What we call normally standard is already outdated.
Sadly drafts are the new standards. And nothing will change that course.
