Hi, /g/.
I'm about to switch from Firefox to Chromium.
Please convince me not to do it!
comfiest browser just do it
happy i ditched fireshit long time ago
You can't stream videos through mpv+youtube-dl
>>54961205
I tried not to leave firefox, but I just couldn't do it.
Chromium is by far the best browser out there with a really smooth experience.
Good luck with Mozilla and its SJWs, sir.
>>54961233
Tell me more, anon.
>>54961250
Is there any evidence SJWs are ruining the code though?
Why? Chromium is fucking amazing and actually fast. Tampermonkey also does the same shit I need in firefox. Fuck firefox
>>54961275
Spending $15000 just to remove the word "slave" from all code and documentation comes to mind.
>>54961205
how is pale moon anons?
>>54961250
Good luck with Google and its SJWs, sir.

> Implying they have done anything to chromium.
>>54961342
AAAAAI WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO HER HEAD?!
>>54961205
I won't, you are doing the right thing.
Do it, the WebP support is fucking godly.
>>54961309
Are you kidding
PCXFirefox Mini 29.0.1 = Best choice.
>>54961342
These bitches don't even touch on Chromium code.
>>54961453
Nor would they know how to.
>>54961342
this. one of the most noticeable things that happened when i changed browsers was that i suddenly interacted a lot more with the people from the company that made it.
>>54961429
Please upload some webps senpai.
>>54961342
HTML "programmers"
>>54961430
Sally no. However, after the black box incident and the fact it's owned and developed by Google, I'm very hesitant to trust chromium.
>>54961497
*Sadly no
What about privacy? Customizable?
Are you just going to leave that behind, OP?
>>54961275
there was some anon here or on a haxor message board telling how it is
i remember... most of them use chrome, ceo(s) milk as much $$$ as they can... yea i didnt read much into it
>>54961652
10/10 post
>>54961615
Soon there wont be privacy and customizable stuff on firefox.
What's the difference between chromium snapshots and continuous?
>>54961205
I'm using Opera until Brave gets a bit more polished. I used Chromium for a long time but it started stuttering and annoying me.
>>54961615
aren't Firefox and Chromium both open source? why doesn't someone just point to the code making calls to some Big Brother company?
>>54961205
tab group
chromium is really a test bed for chrome
you dont have much say on how it works unless you build it yourself
but if you disable all the options in settings including spell check you may be better than most

There are a couple of Firefox extensions that let you watch any streamed video with mpv instead of the browser HTML5/Flash player. Chromium doesn't have this.
>>54961791
youtube-dl can do this independent of the browser, what you're describing sounds like an extension that automatically copy pastes the url in your command line/shell for you
Well, I expected Chromecast to work, but apparently it doesn't.
>>54961205
Just do it I did it couple months back Firefox is slow as shit.
Still want to figure out how to host my own sync for it for book marks and shit since I refuse to sign into google. Found something in python will look at it eventually.
Use iridium instead
>>54962765
I think you need chrome for that
>>54963639
Nah, fixed it with this:iptables -I INPUT -p udp -m udp --dport 32768:61000 -j ACCEPT
Wasn't aware any of the policies even were on DROP, but there you go.
>>54961342
I'd bully all of those ugly fucks
>>54961830
Ah yes. You can also integrate it to the context menu.
>>54961205
I did the same thing, anon. Now I will download the source and compile exclusively for my processor with the addition instructions as AVX2.
>>54961205
by the way, why haven't some geek compiled this with VIM support? i know about those shitty plugins, but they are buggy and based on javascript
>>54961205
Exhibit A:
You cant rice chrome to make it fit your comfy station with tinyCSS. If you can now, then go ahead and leave.
I know why you don't want to use Chrome, but if you're into privacy just use Iridium instead of chromium, bro.
>>54965095
Aside from privacy, what are the noteworthy differences between standard Chrome and Iridium?
>>54961205
Windows version lacks video codecs.
>>54965186
Lack of PDF support from Adobe I guess, but you can use pdf.js tho. Also google stuff.
>>54963617
as a chemist student who's studying for final exam atm your comment pleases me
>>54965255
oh its a browser. well then ill show myself out
>>54961205
Just compare Chromium with Chrome and you'll give up.
>>54965234
No it doesn't.

Just do it, faggot

Chromium + pepperflash is pretty good. I have it around for any website that needs flash, and google docs/MSoffice online.
The JS engine is way better.
I still use FF as my main browser.
>>54965635
It does. I use exactly those builds (the x64 one) and can't play videos on chamster and liveleak. No Flash installed, just to clarify, when I click on play it downloads the video.
>>54965806
Fuck. Opera then?
>>54966017
You're not using the nik build if that's the case. There are builds there with codecs enabled and builds without.
>>54961205
Yeah I mean your life is already fucked anyway. If you are even considering this you have clearly hit rock bottom/gone insane
>>54961830
not op.
can i add MPHC to playit and not MVP?
or set firefox to use the systems video codecs (K-lite), so i don't have to install adobe flash?
do it, who gives a flying fuck.
>>54966060
No, I use the ones from here http://chromium.woolyss.com/download/ Where do you get the ones with codecs?
on every machine, every os, fireshit freezes for up to half a minute trying to load the 4chan catalog or any other image-gallery-like page.
>>54966124
They're at the top of the main page at the moment. I usually use the one without sync, WebRTC and Wildvine, but of course you'll have to pick the one with them if you use those features. Green is stable (Chromium 51), blue is nightly (Chromium 53).
>>54961205
Chromium doesn't check for certificate revocations.
>>54961205
whats the difference between Chromium and Chrome?
>>54966187
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_%28web_browser%29#Differences_from_Google_Chrome
>>54966173
Huh, I didn't really browse the main page too much. Thanks will give it a try. I use Chromium as my secondary browser.
>>54966119
I dont know I never tried to config youtube-dl, I know livestreamer has a config file where you can changed the player to whatever you want, you simply need to point it at its location on the drive
I never used a browser extension, I run livestreamer and youtube-dl right out of cmd/shells via $PATH
>>54961205
does iridium have a 64 bit version?
I find it strange that a project like chromium, which is so close to the king of botnet google, is hailed on /g/ as a safe and secure browser. I still dont fully trust it because of the name, but firefox is pretty rotten these days so i may make the switch.
>>54966982
>I still dont fully trust it because of the name
I dont understand this, the project is open source, you can look at the code before you build it, what is this secret hidden fear that everyone is looking in the face? google doesn't even ship all of their features with it, thats why chrome and chromium are still different things.
>>54967059
the debian and chromium fiasco showed how easy it easy to slip something in.
web browsers today are massive monsters, hard to audit that shit.
>>54967187
No, if anything it shows the exact opposite. The module was noticed almost immediately and quickly removed as a result. People, very autistic people, are watching and notice these things straight away. If it happens, you'll know about it.
>>54966412
anyone? everything i find is in german or some shit
>>54961205
Firefox has better porn.
>>54969169
So you want to fuck a fox?
>>54961342
>bunch of professional victims found a way to make money
Good for them. It's always nice to see companies employ the handicapped.
>>54961320
probably the most comfy browser imo
I've used firefox, palemoon, and chrome for years and I like palemoon the most.
is pepper flash botnet?
>>54961429
they all look like shit
>>54961205
Only pedophiles are afraid of the botnet.
My experience with Firefox
> plugin has stopped working
> firefox has stopped working
My experience with Chromium & even Google Chrome
> ..........
>>54961320
It's the good old Firefox. Feels great using it again.
This is a betrayal of the superior Gecko engine.
>>54961309
Fucking retards, couldn't they just ctrl+h and replace all that shit in like 10 mins?
>>54976390
This. Even if a plugin stops working on Chromium it crashes the plugin, not the entire browser.
>>54961309
Fifteen THOUSAND? Source?
>go to chrome store see this
>happy
>add to chrome
>it doesn't work
why doesn't chrom just werk
>>54961497
black box incident?
>>54961429
moot2 should enable WebP support already.
>>54978624
I think he's talking about that one time that Google left in some code in Chromium that downloaded a proprietary binary, for their speech features.
They eventually allowed you to disable the download through a build flag. Most distributors will have the flag to disable it, but may have to watch out, when building Chromium yourself.
>>54980655
Isn't webp just webm with a different extension?
>>54980822
Not exactly.
WebM is a VPX video track in an MKV
WebP is a VPX frame(s) in an RIFF format
Google basically decided to make an image format based around video keyframes, and it turned out better than expected.
>>54980910
Cool

What the fuck is this
switch to brave instead. chromium is slower.

Cuckold & derivatives - this is predicated on a relationship model of subjugation rather than equal partnership, where cheating is not a unilateral violation of relationship agreements by one party, but a failure of the oppressor to adequately oppress
