It just werks
Take the Waterfox pill
It's not autistically configured like IceCat is to the point where most websites are unusable either so that's nice
>blocks your internet
The real pill is the Seamonkey pill
werks on my masheen
Also I use a user agent switcher to make it look like normal Firefox on Windows, maybe you'll have better luck doing that?
Alex seriously needs to use the old icon again. The new one looks like complete shit.
*uses 10x more RAM than firefox for no discernible reason and no added benefit to speak of*
multiprocess?
RAM usage is about equal with the same setup on Waterfox and Firefox ESR so I'm not sure what you're talking about. It helps if you make those about:config tweaks to increase performance and privacy. Waterfox has a few already set but not all of them.
Ok people I switched to Waterfox. Anyone know if I can make the bookmark tool bar bigger??
Also why when I go to show all bookmarks there's nothing there despite the fact I have like 100 bookmarks.
I unironically like the new one. It stands out for better or worse.
You copied everything over, or did you just sign into a Mozilla account?
Install classic theme restorer and make it look however you want
I don't even think CTR works on Firefox anymore
Imported everything during the install. All the bookmarks are in the tool bar but the window that shows all your bookmarks says there's no items.
Try physically coping over everything in whatever file explorer you use from Mozilla/Firefox over to Waterfox. It even remembered my last session and logins from Firefox when I did that.
>no noscript
>no video downloadhelper
It doesn't save Jow Forums styles for some reason. Literally unusable.
>not in Pacman
Fuck that shit man, I'm way too lazy for that. I'll stick with Pale Moon for the time being.
>>no noscript
scratch that, just need to get version 5.1.9
>still stuck on v56
Someone said there's packages in AUR
I used Seamonkey up until recently but it's so old now
>I'm way too lazy for that
Thanks. I just deleted the places.sqlite file and and swapped it out for my old one.
That's intentional. It still gets security updates.
that old version's ui kinda sucks though.
Just use Yay to install waterfox-bin from the AUR. Easy as shit.
To make captcha easier, disguise your browser as regular Firefox:
addons.mozilla.org
Sounds more like an issue with whatever flavor of monkey you're using.
Worked once until I had to restart the browser, then the icon became a blank box with an arrow on the bottom and was unclickable. Also, did nothing to the captcha
That happened to me once, I reinstalled it and it's worked fine since.
Don't forget your about:config tweaks.
privacytools.io
i would but the noscript for waterfox doesnt look like this instead its the old shitty one
I kinda prefer uMatrix desu
im too retarded for that also i use ublock origin doesnt that do the same thing?
Been using this shit for a couple of hours and websites like Jow Forums and duckduckgo result take notably longer to load up. What gives?
They compliment each other. Hold on, here's some tutorials to get you up to speed:
youtu.be
youtu.be
Hope that helps.
That's the old logo. Nigger. New one is the two foxes yiffing.
The only gripe i have about WF is the gayass nu logo and the fact that i have to start a new session much earlier than with FF when i have like 200 tabs or so
i just have that addon installed that does the captcha for me.
>less supported and less up to date Firefox
sounds awesome
Give me a signed PPA and I will. I've looked, found 2, and both are unsigned, so they won't work.
>Install WF, it just werks
>copy FF profile into WF profile to get bookmarks, configs back
>all extensions blocked, url bar is tiny for some reason
everything is fuck
Maybe if you were to just spend the time to set WF up properly, that wouldn't of happened to you, my WF is working just fine
How did you even get it? It's not availabe anywhere.
you need to do a fresh install. trying to "copy" firefox into waterfox just gives it AIDS because you were using an HIV infected fagfox.
my friend had the same thing. copied HIVfox into waterfox and nothing worked, well of course because youre copying HIV.
It's literally available on their website.
noscript.net
nobody should use this piece of shit retard, at least use icecat or chromium
Does anyone have issues with ublock origin on Waterfox? Pages take forever to load or get stuck unless I disable it, even if ublock has everything unchecked.
I installed waterfox today because ublock shit with firefox. No problems so far.
How can I eliminate some of that excess GUI wasted space at the top? I want my tab bar to have less vertical height than the address bar ideally, not more.
It doesn't. This FF issue somehow killing CTR and tabmixplus on my firefox 56 is the reason I switched to waterfox today. Both work just fine on it.
Does this shit work with netflix again yet?
Even if it doesn't, just use ungoogled chromium for your DRM botnet globohomo "shows" aka poison.
just instealled wtaerfox, when going into "search for addons" why cant i find any? also why is it that i cant install the themes from the firefox store?
Go back to your sophisticated blu ray collection, Kelly.
Fuck Firefox and fuck the diversity hired niggers that run that shitshow
Pretty much saved my life. Don't care about any other potential issuies as long as tabmixplus and classic theme restorer work. Also I imported the profile from a firefox 56 so didn't get any of the issues mentioned in this thread
>he fell for it
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Been using it for a while. I really like it. Literally no reason to use default cuckzilla over waterfox.
>no way to set the new tab page to about:blank
garbage
Open a new tab, click the gear icon in the top-right corner, toggle "Show blank page"
What concerns me is there is only one PPA and its not even run by waterfox is appears to be some random dude.
It doesn't
I switched to it and
>Enter doesn't work in the address bar
>none of my addons work despite them all showing up as properly imported and still registering as installed if I try and re-add them
>occasionally when I click something, it just doesn't register
Idk what the fuck is wrong with it, I installed it off the Jow Forums wiki
Not on my toaster.
And so does chromium. Your argument isn't that compelling op.
Chronium or everything else that is not based on ff56 don't have any meaningful UI and tab extensions which is one of the main reasons you would want FF in the first place.
I'm overall very happy with it
The only problem I'm having is that I can't seem to disable request policy's initial setup's international whitelist which is... not ideal.
Anyone have any advice?
As a side note, I'm somewhat surprised that request policy seemed to peter out in beta. Also surprised there aren't more cross-origin blockers out there.
how do you port bookmarks and extensions to Waterfox without getting ff aids
i've got waterfox running and tweaked the fucking shit out of it.
only problem is it's asking for 3 sets of captcha solves every fucking time.
i absolutely flushed firefox but it didn't have this problem
Are there even 10 people alive who aren't pieces of trash who will spy and monitor and track you in exchange for a paycheck (or even for free)? Christ.
lol close browser open it doesn't remember that i had the windows maximized i've gone too far
just solved 12 (((captchas))) to type this
that's because waterfox blocks tracking out of the box and since Google can't track you, it thinks you are bot.
>video tutorials
What addon is that?
>literally palemoon 2.0
nah
I've had this problem since I started using Waterfox a few months ago. As I was typing a reply to you, it seems to have magically been fixed.
thanks.
fuck humanity
>Don't forget your about:config tweaks.
fuck browser wont even open lol
I think it's from you fucking with privacy.resistFingerprinting
deal with it cucklord.
no
t-thanks Jow Forums
>muh captcha
Use the noscript captcha in Jow Forums x you fucking retards.
>muh Jow Forums x
Use the noscript captcha in the default site you fucking retard.
What? The native extension doesn't let you fallback to google's noscript captcha.
the default site just werks
>can't customize the newtab page.
even quantum allows this.
When I use the the Noscript captcha in Jow Forums X, it asks me to copy and paste a code into a box. The problem is that the box to paste the code into is not there.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Where the fuck am I suppose to get addons from if this shit is just an outdated firefox?
addons.mozilla.org
waterfox.net
Yeah, it's based on an older version of FF but with security patches.
Anyone else having trouble getting the dissenter add-on installed? I keep getting a "this add-on appears to be corrupt" message
I think it's because the expired certificate affects the add-ons on the store too. That also explains why yesterday a lot of people on firefox couldn't reinstall uBlock from the store.
yeah, copy the text, reload the captcha, and paste it in the white text entry field below without wasting more time on the new rage inducing pozzle above it.
I almost didn't see what you were talking about, user. That text entry field always looked like a standard white bar to me.
Thank you.
Anybody know how to get this bitch to work?
Yes. Same here
The add ons manager at firefox has a BA in Theater Arts.
Someone's gonna have to explai nthis one to me. I'm running 4chanx but can't install noscript because it says I'm on old FF 57 (obviously, since this is waterfox). What do I do?
Install an older version.
