Been using Firefox since day one, lag has never been an issue, never really had any issues with "a single tab caused the whole program to crash" bullshit either. All the e10s bullshit does is just forces it to use more resources than necessary.

Chrome is "multiprocessing" i.e. it calls fork() somewhere in its code.

But its architecture is way shitty - it does not actually cleanly separate UI and rendering.

Chrome/Chromium/Canary did that for years already :^)

It works absolutely fine. Perhaps you should upgrade that Pentium 4 if you're getting "lag" on 4chan, cuckboi.

If you're experiencing lag on a primarily text-based website like 4chan (with a minimal amount of images, really) then your machine is shit - it's not your browser.

Firefox is insecure.

Opera used to be the king of displaying 4chan

would load the whole page ultra fast then the images

This. I've never got why the fuck chrome has so many instances of processes and lags so hard. Shittily coded, expected more from Google.

Stop being a retard. I use nightly with e10 enabled. I also use a chromium based browser.

Guess which one still lags? Firefox. You don't have to believe me, installa chromium build and a firefox nightly build. Then try loading 300+ comment threads on either. Keep track of how long the loading time is and the CPU usage of the system.


Chrome has multiple instances running concurrently but this allows them to save CPU cycles when loading huge threads. Firefox will freeze for few seconds and CPU cycle will ramp up quite high before loading.

I'd use firefox again if they didn't lag, cause spikes in CPU. Its sad.

That never happened. Mozilla did not fire any CEO.

I didn't really care about the guy, personally, to be honest, but that is when the browser started taking a massive nose dive. That hello and pocket shit was the last straw for me.
>>

For "smooth" operation

>>54959422

Admittedly, they're fixing the real issues with those. Pocket and Hello should have been addons from the start.

Now, Pocket is the one I take issue with. Its a proprietary external service and by supporting it natively like that FIRST was as shit move. They should have done like they did with XMarks and Sync - when they saw the proprietary addon popularity, they made a FOSS interpretation that is better and rolled that out. People could still use XMarks if they wished, but Sync was the built in feature and Xmarks was an addon as it has always been. That's what needs to happen and as far as I know, at least part of it is set in stone now. Pocket will be popped out into a full addon, btu I still want to see them come up with a FOSS alternative.

Hello doesn't bother me at all. Honestly, I think they need to do MORE with it. Sure, they should make it an addon and I hear they are, but it is using WebRTC for a fully open protocol at least. What they need to do to get people to USE it is make it better and more feature filled. For instance, you can't start a Hello conversation on Firefox Mobile of all fucking places! They should have both an addon that works in Mobile and Desktop, but also a stand alone Android / iOS app for using Hello for high quality, private, voice and video calls. We desperately need a fucking Skype replacement for the normies, and Hello could be it... .IF they spend the time.
>>
>>54959422
Hello is alright, it's basically just an interface for functionality that is built into firefox anyway. It makes sense for Mozilla to try and push hello as a FOSS alternative to other video calling platforms, the majority of which are proprietary. Pocket though that's the one that I find unforgivable. It's a proprietary service and their ToS are terrible, there's no reason Mozilla should be associating with them at all.
>>
>>54959495
You know, I wouldn't have even cared if they just auto-installed them as a sponsored Add-on, if they had given us the option to just remove it like any other add-on.

Sure didn't know that the evil white male excluded everyone before.

I think we should also start by encouraging more diverse religious groups other than Jewish owning businesses now. It's only 2016 after all, come on.
