When did you finally give up on this piece of shit?
>>52314219
never Iceweasel master race reporting in
>>52314219
Why would I?
Running Firefox ESR 38.
Stable, fast and secure with my own tweaks and extensions.
There's just no alternative.
it just werks desu
>people still have problems running .webms on chrome
>>52314219
When I switched to the iPad Pro as my main computing device. Safari is nice.
>>52314219
Why would I?
What would I switch too?
When even vanilla it was a slow piece of shit. All browsers are shit. Its just picking a poison at this point.
Never.
>>52314219
early half of last year
they won't listen unless you stop using it
>>52314219
When Chrome released 7 years ago.
>>52314219
Last month. Vivaldi masterrace.
I've already ported my dozen addons and am stopping support for the ff versions as soon as all that API change shit and other inane bullshit comes around.
>>52314219
When they made that update to make it look exactly like Chrome.
I liked firefox for a while but fuck me, it constantly just stops responding whenever I have more than 4 tabs open.
>>52314219
Never. Self-destructing cookies is the best add-on.
>>52314264
Really? I've never heard about that. .webms work flawlessly for me on Chrome
>>52314475
you can change the way it looks desu senpai
Pure shit. Freezes when even trying to bring the print prompt on or opening more than 5 tabs
I'm done as soon as they move to their new plugin spec (chrome plugins) and all the plugins I regularly use are broken. Hopefully kde fiber will be done in time.
>>52314219
still using this but:
>have to use mpv to play anything on youtube
>crashes when browsing "infinite" scrolling websites - facebook (ye i know) or 4chan (of that im even more embarrased) all pages mode
>flash is an old piece of shit with just security upgrades on lincucks
>more and more stupid shit added that should be just extensions (hello, pocket, etc)
i would just use midori but its webm player is really bad
(insert sad face here)
Around when Chrome first came out and BTFO'd Firefox
Best browser coming through
When they removed the newtabpage-setting and I was feeling silly installing an addon that re-added that.
Installed Pale Moon then.
switched to seamonkey, seems less shitty so far
>>52314554
by that point I'm sure there will be a serious fork that's more than just a rebranding, that has dev support
>>52314219
not yet
has yet to fail me.
I didn't
I mean, should I?
What's better to use now?
gtfo firefox
Will stick with ESR 38.x from now on, once ESR 45.x drops it'll be game over for future updates for me. Guess I'll just have to contend with being "insecure" I suppose when they stop issuing patches and updates, oh well.
It's a damned shame, really.
When a new contender arrived that was better
>>52314661
>>52314684
On a scale of 1 to 10, how placebo is waterfox?
>>52314661
Are you fucking kidding me? Shit gets unresponsive and is buggy as hell.
Icecat, Palemoon, or Waterfox?
Help me choose please.
>>52314265
>iPad Pro
>>52314219
It was broken as fuck for me and pissing me off but I reinstalled and got my latest gpu drivers and it worked like a charm.
If you know of any good browsers with a fuck ton of customizability, please let me know. I'm ready to ditch Firefox for anything better but haven't found anything myself.
>>52314713
Icecat because it's GNU and is literally firefox - bullshit
you can just copy your profile folder and the migration is done
I tried pale moon and half the stuff wouldn't work as I liked it and it was just horrible alltogether with their own addons.
Never tried waterfox and don't know much about it, isn't it just a 64-bit firefox?
>>52314517
webms with an odd width don't play correctly in chrome. This has been a known bug for years now.
>>52314747

>>52314713
I go vanilla but my friend with a shitty system likes waterfox.
A guy I met on Reddit likes palemoon but ive never tried it.
Never heard of icecat.
>>52314757
Is that one odd width?
works fine for me on Chrome

>>52314691
I'm with this guy but hopefully by ESR v45 it will have been 'beta tested' enough. You can't even disable plugin-container starting with v43 which is a deal breaker for me.
>>52315462
I'm using Windows.
>>52315505
>they're just worse working versions of Firefox
what was worse in icecat? I don't even notice a difference. I just copied my old firefox profile, removed the newtab override addon because it's now obsolete, and everything is exactly the same now usability wise
>>52315516
Chrome is a literal botnet and a resource hog, why would I choose it over Firefox? The sites I visit already load as fast as my Internet connection will allow.
>>52315554
Try changing your user agent string to
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win 64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/38.0.2121.3 Safari/537.36
And see if it works
>>52314219
Whenever they released that update that put ads on the new tab page. Even though you could disable it it was a huge red flag that Mozilla's circling the drain.
>>52315596
>why would I choose it over Firefox
Because it's better
>>52314219
Shortly after they started the new versioning.
Never looked back.

I don't need to argument this. It's just so much better

Might as well go with the pros. rip firefox.

I would do this but I don't know how to make the batch file I'm using exclude the file path from the title. I don't want to manually paste in the file name for every single file.
>>52314219
Last week. It was about time. Vivaldi beta for me now.
>>52315860-metadata title="' + file_in + '"
something like that? depends on which files your using

yesterday when youtube started loading the version for fliphones and only flip phones not even the html 5 version the one that feeds 3gp videos
>>52315860

just reread your post about the path, maybe this will work
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9252980/how-to-split-the-filename-from-a-full-path-in-batch
>>52315342
is one of those things half-life 3
>>52314219
at some point in the future when Chrome supports bookmark tagging
>>52315899
The batch file I'm using looks like this plus some additional options that aren't relevant here:ffmpeg.exe -i "%1" -c:v libvpx -crf 18 -b:v 4M -metadata title="%1" "%1.webm"
This works but the issue I'm having is that it passes the entire file path to the title attribute.
>>52315988
use the thing mentioned here >>52315964 to get the Name as in the first answer, then doffmpeg.exe -i "%1" -c:v libvpx -crf 18 -b:v 4M -metadata title="%Name" "%1.webm"
should work I guess
I didn't. Firefox masterrace.
I don't use Bloatware dumbed down garbage like Chrome.
>>52316085
>>52315964
Fuck yes that works. I wish I could understand what was going on with that loop at the top though.
Working Prototype:Set filename=%1
For %%A in ("%filename%") do (
Set Name=%%~nxA
)
ffmpeg.exe -i "%1" -c:v libvpx -crf 18 -b:v 4M -metadata title="%Name%" "%1.webm"
I don't know if I need all that shit up at the top but for now this works

>>52316236
Oh yeah that's true the filename variable was kinda redundant
>>52316236
>>52316257
Okay I simplified it even further after figuring out what those parameters in the variable name doffmpeg.exe -i "%1" -c:v libvpx -crf 18 -b:v 4M -metadata title="%~nx1" "%1.webm"
Seems to be functionally equivalent at least for my usage.

>>52314219
Shortly after Chrome came out. I had been using Firefox for around a year, decided to try Google's new browser, then around Opera 10 or 11 I found out Opera existed and switched to that
Around the end of 2008. I got tired of the HTML5 incompatibilies (it just never can catch up to standards) as a web developer and the shitty multithreaded performance, chrome is botnet though so I switched to qutebrowser (webkit) never looked back.
>>52320196
Chrome and all derivatives are dumbed down overly simplistic memory hogs that can't even do extensions right.
Firefox is the superior option by a long shot. I'm not going to use garbage because just because you read too much neo-reactionary nonsense.
>>52320196
You gotta be one sucker ass white boy to think that they needed 15.000$ to remove the word "slave" in github, the SJW's are basically making up excuses to pull out foundation money for personal purposes while claiming it's needed to improve the CoC on the website, github and furryfox getting c,ucked like a ofo

When Chrome decides to actually work on Windows 10 and not lag like shit.
No really, every device that's running Win10 right now for me makes chrome an utter mess to load pages for no reason whatsoever, but when I downgrade to Win7 everything is smooth sailing
>>52320597
>using buzzwords like sjw
Think you're the sucker.
>>52320630
Chrome lags on everything. It literally uses 80% of your ram to run like 10 tabs because of it's "multi-process" placebo.
Shitty ass Chrome can freeze + lock up my 16GB ram system if I leave it open with enough tabs and play League or something.
>>52315698
you sound like an apple fag
How customizable is Chromium? It probably doesn't use Chrome's add-on market and I know about how Chrome blocks third party add-ons. I'm downloading all these movies for freeleech so I cant download it ATM and see for myself.
Maybe 6 months ago?
A little while before I used it for something really quickly and was impressed at how much faster it was than I remember it (I stopped using it around the time chrome came out).
6 months ago I decided to move away from chrome, and tried firefox as my default and it was pretty awful. It probably didn't help that it was around the time flash took a giant shit (Well, like, for the last time).
>>52320630
It works fine on windows 10, either your os build is old or your chrome is not the latest version
>>52320651
Have 8gb ram and can definitely open at least 30 tabs and still have about 2gb ram free, don't get what issues you people have with chrome's ram usage
>>52320698
Zero. You can change the homepage and apply some "skins" that aren't even skins (just tab wallpapers).
Use a real browser if you want customization.
>>52315774
Not him but one thing that browser must have is an instant launch and as far as I know only chrome, ie and edge does this on windows. Tested Vivaldi, Firefox and they're horrible at launching speed not to mention that I use ssd
>>52316164
>implying firecuck is any different
>>52321062
It is different. From the raw perspective of customization Chrome is a fucking fisherprice toy compared to Firefox.
Also,
>using buzzwords like cuck

>>52320082
You don't want to watch it. It will waste your golden time.
>>52321092
>>52321092
I wasn't referring to ability of customization, but the bloat thats getting in Firefox. Sure, Firefox used to be best, but it's all downhill now I am afraid.
Also
>getting triggered by buzzwords
Fuck off faggot
>>52314518
Not for long
When they started to include that Reader icon. But i was on my way when they started removing people from Mozilla for expressing themselves.
The trend is such : We can make decisions, but you cannot have an opinion. And the web should be as free as we make it.
And i cant use Chrome so i'm stuck with IE until Opera gets their shit together. I would rather have my ass raped by a company that tells me they are raping me, rather than a bunch of snakes selling nonsense.
>>52314219
Well for the time being it does all I ask of a browser and has a lot of add-ons I've been using for years. I'm wary of the upcoming changes that'll probably fuck some of them up, though.
>>52321184
No, you have it backwards. Chrome has the bloat WITHOUT the customization. Firefox is actually lighter than Chrome even though it does more.
Also
>defending your usage of neckbeard buzzwords
Back to your containment board, /pol/ack.
I stopped updating Firefox when I found out they were getting rid of Tab Groups. I have 100+ tabs of stuff open that I've been too lazy to sort through, but I don't want to lose them, so I will never update again.
>>52321579
I wonder what your house looks like and if you have a yard if it is all overgrown and shit.
>>52321990
I can't get rid of them. They are mostly artist pages on Danbooru. For every artist page I finish looking through, I open at least one new topic page, and from there I get more artists and more topics and so on and so on.
>>52314219
Sadly Pale Moon and Waterfox are both literal memes.
I'll keep using CuckFox with my layout, addons and scripts in the foreseeable future.

Epic buzzword. Quality post.
>>52322298
It's all yours :))))))
Post it on /r/4chan but careful with the [shitty crop]
I have way too much time invested into customizing my FF with add-ons and extensions to ever have any interest in switching to something else.
I would shoot myself if I didn't have Tab Tree and the like.
>>52322538
Waterfox seamlessly imports everything IIRC.
>>52322694
>Waterfox is a high performance browser based on the Mozilla platform. Made specifically for 64-Bit systems, Waterfox has one thing in mind: speed.
I might have cared or tried it out if I didn't already have a 64bit version of FF on my Windows machine.
when tab groups were removed.
It's stupid but I was working on a few different projects and didn't want a million irrelevant tabs to scroll through so the grouping was perfect.
Now there is no reason to stick with FirefCucks because Chromium literally does everything better at this point

>>52320698
what he >>52320880 said unless you can programm and change the code to your liking and do it every once in a while
as a user you can;t change the scroll step/speed, you can;t permanently hide the download bar and the sign in button because the devs took the existing flags away
tl;dr with every new release it is more and more locked and you can change less and less
1st strike was webm's not playing properly

Why the fuck are you begging for money if you're spending it on social outreach programs in niggerland or whatever? Fix your fucking browser.
