so I will now have to blacklist cookies manually and delete their junk on exit.

neato,is waterfox any good?

And why in this world Firefox doesn't pick the blacklisted sites from my host files anymore?

I do remember wasting hours on IE picking 3rd party add sites,blocking them on host file going back on said site and being able to navigate through it safely.

You have to allow it in the first place. You can still use Right-click website -> View Page Info -> Permissions, although I do agree it's kinda stupid to remove the ability to change things without visiting the website. You can also edit the SQL database.

That would be cool and all if it weren't for the fact that some views are genuinely through and through oppressive. Denying gays the right to marry is an infringement of their human rights.

I had them disabled since ever,nevertheless some sites were adding 3rd party cookies via ads or refer shit which I had to block manually or go through their site,block their scripts with NoScript and disable their other shady stuff with about:permissions

e10s actually does supports multiple processes, Mozilla is holding off on adding more processes because of the resource usage.

>>
>>54256084
e10s is short for electrolysis which is Mozilla's codename for multiprocess support in firefox.

Basically the browser chrome runs in the "firefox" process and web content runs in a "plugin-container" process which runs as a child process. If the web content misbehaves and causes the browser to crash it would only crash the "plugin-container" and the firefox process will notice this and give you a page where you can immediately restore your tabs. This also makes the browser more responsive because the firefox process runs with greater priority, web content will be less likely to cause complete browser hangs or crashes.

No, anon, denying gays the right to enter into a civil union is an infringement. Marriage is a religious ceremony that shouldn't be anywhere in US law. By definition, nobody should have the right to marriage. It's doled out to individuals by private clubs. Do I have the right to be a grand master mason illuminati instantly even though freemason doctrine says I can't do that? Yes, because I like it up the ass. I really do! No fucking joke. I even use screwdriver handles when I'm too lazy to clean the dildos.

You know what infringes on human rights? Forcing christian pastors to preside over gay marriage. A heretic priest is free to do that, but forcing the rest because "thou shalt not make a fag feel bad" is the new US commandment is fucking horrible. It's like telling muslims to eat bacon as part of a US citizenship test because you think bacon deserves more respect, and that muslims don't.

The reason e10s is taking a long time is because the Firefox addon model was never designed to deal with multiprocess. The problem thus is legacy code, a problem Chrome never had.

It's better to just suspend to RAM. Hibernation is kinda insecure. It only saves like a 20-30 seconds compared to just restarting the entire OS it's not like you'll have to do that very frequently.

If you have the foresight to put your system into hibernation before the power goes out you could just as easily save what you're doing and shut the system down. Saving the entire contents of your RAM to the hard disk is stupid.

There's a session manager extension for firefox if you're that worried about it. Since tab groups were removed you're probably using that one extension which also has the ability to save and restore groups. Without groups getting in the way it's pretty trivial to save and restore tabs in firefox. And outside of firefox you should be saving your work frequently anyway.

I'm not sure I understand your argument. Hibernation will accomplish the same thing as bookmarks. Restoring from a state isn't going to preserve anything if the website times you out. If you're worried about staying logged in then save cookies.

Sandboxing multiprocess isn't ready yet. Gtk3 people seem to be happy enough. About permissions removal sucks, so complain about it via feedback. Can't you do all that stuff from other locales though like about config? Cookies can be rejected via options, notifications can be disabled per site easily, and addons like self destructing cookies, better privacy, umatrix, decentraleyes and others can help alongside the standards like disconnect , ublock etc...

Firefox needs some new features and refinement it will not get if we give up using it and giving vehement feedback. We have to be realistic and keep them on the right track

>>54261416
Under what rock have you been living? Holy fuck! Unless you use firefox dev edition, you can no longer install unsigned addons, but malware gets through the signing process just fine through the automatic filter, and legitimate large addons are too complicated so every patch takes up to 2 months to get through.

what's the problem with gtk3? I guess if you're on Windows maybe it doesn't mean much to you but I like that Firefox matches my theme

Firefox uses windows' native or on OSX it uses cocoa. GTK3 support only applies to generic *nix systems.

>The reason e10s is taking a long time is because the Firefox addon model was never designed to deal with multiprocess
Despite extension creators having an assload of time and warning to make their shit work with e10s, I'd say at least half of them haven't, since turning e10s on kills a good chunk of popular extensions I have installed. As much as I hate to defend Mozilla, they're the victim of their own userbase, who are more or less incompetent as fuck when it comes to change, which is why ancient shit like Pale Moon is venerated
