Just uninstalled firefox and replaced it with chromium, and it takes up about a third of the memory on average so far. The chromium package was 55mb, the firefox package was like 127mb or something. all of my bookmarks and settings and shit were transfered over with the click of 1 button and it took about 2 seconds. chromium is noticeably faster too.
why the fuck is firefox get so shit now?
also the font rendering was completely fucked and it's fine in chromium.
SJWs ruin everything. Diversity hires, etc.
google is full of them too tho right?
Maybe not as many working on the chromium project. Make no mistake, chrome will be shit one day too
Meritocracy still works for Google. According to a recent chart (wish I saved it, anyone has it?) they are trying to hire all kinds of nonwhites then firing them faster than you can say "buyers remorse".
Meanwhile Mozilla is phasing out meritocracy. Skin color and gender>>>>>merit (especially if its a white male) they are not racist or sexist btw.

The original Firefox logo is perfection and they've been ruining it ever since.

Imagine being autistic enough to care about literal megabytes.

I have begrudgingly started using chromium alongside firefox last month
Flat and solid color themes are better than non-solid.
Point and case - Papirus icon theme.
Colors that change are fucking gay and ugly. Solid colors are better.
Enjoy the better experience boi.
Google is still a very set in stone hierarchy as much as they want to pretend otherwise. There is no equality in a hierarchy.
Google makes it easier for their shitty diversity hires to actually produce worthwhile code by creating things like Go and Flutter, hard to fuck shit up when you're literally building between rails.
imagine being a retard and not knowing that double the binary size for less functionality is bad and indicates more memory usage from the get go.
But I CAN HAVE SO MANY MORE TABS NOW
like at least 2x as many as what pre-quantum firefox could have before it started crapping out and freezing and for only 5x the RAM usage!
More! I want more!
157mb on my machine
I'm not one of those retards that has 50 tabs open, I'm just autistic about minimalism
should i go chromium and fuck waterfox off?
Please listen to this then:
youtube.com
what did he mean by this?
>google-diversity-problem
Just fuck me why can we not fucking hire based on the merit of the person rather than autisitc screeching about the fact that the most qualified person got the job.
Fuck this gay earth.
>waterfox
Fuck the botnet off, please.
wtf are you doing? even with 100+ tabs open i'd only get ~2gb-4gb usage
>only 50
do you think i am some kind of amateur?
unused ram is wasted ram goy
thanks desu senpai, ill try it out
kek, can't argue with sound logic
>calarts icons
thank god im not gay
>haha because brad bird and tim burton and others totally didnt grad from calarts
Cool get out edgy hipster.
do you use ungoogled chromium?
Correct.
honest question why would anyone ever need +100 tabs open? literally what are you browsing anymore
More than three tabs is too much. The fuck are you guys doing. Close your tabs when you aren't using them, Jesus Christ.
only have that many up when I'm on my proper pc. have x34 predator monitor so having 100 tabs up dosn't really get annoying
honest answer ur mom gay lol
That isn't because of efficiency, but because the unused tabs are unloaded. Come back when you're even using 50 active tabs.
cheers!
for some reason firefox is nowhere near as good on windows as it is on linux; i no longer get native print to pdf functionality, i had to play with the handlers to get pdfs and magnets to open properly, also the tab blanking restores way too slow on windows but is almost instantaneous on linux. i just wish they implemented a XUL sandbox layer rather than removing it entirely.
also with 40-50 media tabs open on firefox quantum on linux i only use about 3gb of RAM and runs much faster than chromium. i can't help but think that FF is made with linux as a first class citizen but then again, their aggressive advertisement injection through pocket makes me think otherwise.
Good taste.
insane fap? ayy
If you think people leaving is them being fired, you're fucking retarded. Google hires overqualified nonwhites, then tells them to effectively sit on their hands. They get bored, and leave.
>implying
>citation needed
this is only on Linux. On Windows the font rendering is only slightly worse (or even better in some people's opinion)
decent bait, tricked me into looking up what e621 is
how botnet is chromium?
>bait
u wish
Chromium also has cleaner and more minimal UI which is actually the main reason why I use it.
Monosodium glutamate?
It works fine for me. Also
>packages sizes
>not including dependencies
>not using qutebrowser
>it takes up about a third of the memory on average so far
bullshit
leaving != fired
there, is that clear enough for your retard brain to wrap around?
>uses discord
>is retarded
who would guess!
Meritocracy is a terrible excuse.
A fully White company will always outdo those that aren't, meritocracy or not.
Do you have anything to substantiate that? I'm not in favor of diversity for diversity's sake but I can't imagine there's any data to back this claim.
>implying
>citation still needed
Hurts to think huh?
And you got anything to back that up?
I literally can not give less shits about what nationality, sexuality or political agenda you follow if your code is good.
basically the exact same thing as Chrome at this point
use Iridium or ungoogled-chromium if you don't want Firefox
>dark nekogami

>good taste
I am disgusted to share this planet with the likes of you
>the main firefox package size is 20mb smaller
>with the other associated addons, it's 37mb smaller
>Firefox typically uses about the same memory as Chromium
>even if it didn't, you probably have at least 8gb of RAM
Stop shilling.
Is that Task Manager, or are you using some another special program to display the processes?
process hacker
unused ram is wasted ram
Unused RAM should be used for other programs, not to fuel one piece of bloatware.
Sure thing kid
>WAAHHH FOIYAHFOX DOESN'T COME WITH PROPRIETARY FONTS
>WAAHHH BIG BRO GOOGLE, COME INSTALL THEM FOR ME
t. Triggered freecuck
>chrome will be shit one day too
Wait.... WHAT???
Chrome doesn't have even a button for the bookmarks. You have to install a plugin to have a fucking button to open the bookmarks menu. Plus many other stupid things that browser lacks.
But what if you are not using other programs.
It works perfectly on my Linux machine.
How? Teach me your magic.
I'm sorry don't talk negatively about the BEST browser to ever exist. How about you actually try to use it before you talk shit about it because if you knew anything about Firefox it's that it's the ABSOLUTE best browser to EVER exist
>two tabs
>one of them is literally nothing
>the other is just text and some images
>200mb
YIKES
eat it
>text and some images
>he doesn't know about the cancerous javascript in the Jow Forums website
firefox never releases memory on appleshit
>muh unused memory fallacy
then the system starts paging and everything turns super sluggish
fuck you firefox
if it isn't a webm demonstrating all tabs are active, i dont give a flying fuck
nice empty new tab to inflate # of tabs tho LOL shills are D E S P E R A T E
>All tabs must be active
>Complains about memory
>disfear
very nice friend
Literally right click on the bookmarks bar
so firefox isn't efficient at all then
because what we're talking about here is efficient ram usage, not the fact that all modern browsers unload inactive tabs
What are you talking about?
There is no button for the bookmarks menu, only that awful bar.
he is probably trying to upload 42 terabytes of child porn :~/
>it takes up about a third of the memory
please not this shit again
it uses memory because there is available memory
unused memory would be wasted memory
>Diversity hires
Firefox is great since Quantum. So why would you care about who they hire?
2005 best one
Papirus icons genuinely looks fine and much better than the default icons on most operative systems imho.
That logo gives me an erection. It's so comfy.
Hey OP! Can I get a version of that 2021 logo with the aesthetic of this nightly logo?
I can't play a YouTube video on chromium, meanwhile Firefox works perfectly
Then again Firefox required me to install pulseaudio so idk.
Firefox is faster so idc about install size that's a nonfactor
What program are you using there?
I upgraded from Firefox 53 to 60. I could add thousand of torrent files before in transmission. Now it makes it crash. No more downthemall. Firefox is dogshit now.
> firefox
> slow
> not using the far superior ESR version
pretty sad state of affairs.
this is always far better than their mainline release.

Why do people say firefox uses a lot of RAM and has memory leaks?
