Than there's shit edge, Safari etc. really Vivaldi isn't very good and it's not open source but it's a step in the right direction. A nice new FOSS browser with some of vivaldis ideas and old Firefox ideas is what we need.

Vivaldi is a great browser, so it naturally is attracting power users who long for advanced features and developers who love to get feedback and interact with them.

You realize that Opera was just recently sold to a China consortium for 1.2 billion dollars. And this new Chinese consortium has now added free VPN built right into the browser.

China? Offering VPN? Riiiiight. Welcome to your new Asian masters.

The VPN is optional, and the browser is not sending any irregular data, so Opera is not a botnet (yet)

I was using Firefox 28 up until about a month ago. I couldn't stand the bugs, errors, no addon support and other problems.

Can't realistically use it anymore.

But good news! I switched to the latest Firefox and now none of my good addons work, the tab bar is twice as tall and Youtube videos randomly crash while simultaneously being uncontrollably forced to play at a nauseating 60 FPS!

Opera. Would move to vivaldi if the will remove javashit
>>
>>54371397
SJWs are not rational thinkers, and thus their code reflects that, which is why Mozilla is going down. SJWs will spend endless time going over a code of conduct, blogging about their life, or having lengthy discussion of whether a word is racist to actually get anything done.

How do the results reflect this? Well look at how things went. People witched to Chrome. Why? It's faster and simpler. What did Mozilla do? Add some stupid new UI, bloat it up with shit like Hello and some other retarded shit, screw over enthusiasts with shit they don't want pushing them to Pale Moon, and develop some new language for the retards who are too dumb to use C++.

Brave is literally botnet, they are proud of selling your browsing data to advertising companies, they even make it a selling point of the browser. What the fuck

>>54381458
Open Source is no Botnet. Also if you can turn it totally off it is no botnet.

It is like telemetry in Firefox - If you turn it off it is not active anymore. And as Brave is Open Source you security fags can remove the parts you do not like.

Stop complaining, go coding!

I generally do not connect to web sites from my own machine, aside from a few sites I have some special relationship with. I usually fetch web pages from other sites by sending mail to a program (see git://git.gnu.org/womb/hacks.git) that fetches them, much like wget, and then mails them back to me. Then I look at them using a web browser, unless it is easy to see the text in the HTML page directly. I usually try lynx first, then a graphical browser if the page needs it (using konqueror, which won't fetch from other sites in such a situation).

I occasionally also browse unrelated sites using IceCat via Tor.
