what does Jow Forums think of iridium? ive been using it for a while now and it is by far the best browser ive used. it feels like chrome without the bloat and spyware, however ive heard that it used to phone home to iridium's servers. what do you Jow Forumsuys think?

Been using it for 3 years, it's pretty good except there's a problem with text being unreadable on the bottom downloads bar. Have to open the downloads tab to see. Also can't watch Netflix or Amazon Prime video on it, have to use Firefox.
Jacob Rivera
Use Firefox, you fucking cuck.

what's the difference between Iridium and ungoogled Chromium?
Asher Rodriguez
One is called Iridium.
Hunter Edwards
Iridium has unveil support in OpenBSD so I use that.
Jackson Cook
I've been using it for about a year and it's fine. Not considerably awesome but fuck ff and chrome.

It's very easy to debotnet it:

It's good but I'm pissed the debian update is taking so long >:(
Grayson James
Great but I think it's a few features behind mainline.

Firefox? Uh, It's heavy, and has a pitiful cookie handling.
Iridium is light, and no need to open an "about:config" to prevent this or that from leaking to Mozilla/Google or other.
Just add some addons, UBo, NoScript, Decentraleyes, Random A-gent Switcher, and it's much better than shitty Firefox with the same addons.
Tyler Moore
they're essentially identical but Iridium has binaries that can be downloaded for any desktop OS making it easier to set up (although compiling from source is best option)
Cameron Robinson
isn't this browser outdated?
Luke Jenkins
No, last build released 15 April 2019, version 2019.04.73, based on Chromium 73.0.3683.1031 (being based on a slightly lower version than the current one is not synonymous with a security breach.)
And they're reactive ; their entire domain was KO for a day last week (no website acces, no downloads, no PPA update possible when tried) it was fixed the next day after.
It doesn't prove anything, except that they're reactive.
Elijah Baker
Confirmed botnet btw.

you know it's fine when even that fucking autist on neocities says it's good

>being based on a slightly lower version than the current one is not synonymous with a security breach
but it is synonymous with 'outdated' which is what the other user wanted to know, he didn't ask about security.
Levi Brooks
do i have to log in to every single site on every single session on this browser too like the retard browser called ungoogled-chromium? if not i might try this

- Chromium 73 outdated
- Iridium v2019.04.73 not outdated.

Does it even get security updates at all?
Robert Wilson
what is it like having 4 passwords
Robert Walker
So does Ungoogled Chromium, retard. Don't you know how to read web pages?
Also, Iridium isn't the same as Ungoogled Chromium; it's the same as Chromium (i.e.: it's not ungoogled).
Josiah Nelson
Nigger Tor is also botnet lmao it uses glowing nodes
William Wilson
Iridium just gets rid of chromium's spyware
Ungoogled Chromium actively avoids any connection with Google to the point that some might find it annoying
Joseph Myers
>He reversed their descriptions
Jeremiah Walker
Compare installing an add-on with Iridium to doing it with ungoogled Chromium
Jackson Williams
>Needing addons
Why do you need addons? Too dumb to know how to use a proper hosts file to block ads?
Bentley Adams
>No News to open about:config to block leaking
>What is fingerprinting and zombie cookies
Fyi by using non standard browsers (i.e. anything but Chrome/Firefox and esp those shitty forks)you make it even easier for companies to track you. How many people worldwide run Iridium? Compare that to Firefox user base which may be tiny but us gigantic against Iridum. Firefox specifically because in contrast to WebKit browsers it has actual defences against this.

>lmao who needs features anyway
At this point you're not even worth talking to
Jason Martin
At this point you're not intelligent enough to know how to not need more bloat on your system to avoid ad bloat.
Juan Bailey
>Hurr I need an insecure browser to use my addons with
That's not how security works. Why switch to another clone of a clone of Google's web browser, if you know that you can still be tracked by addons?
