![]() ![]() I’ve actually considered switching back to it in OS X because it does feel faster than chrome and safari now. I will say that they’ve made huge leaps on memory usage and performance in recent releases on supported platforms. ![]() At that point, you’re battling the third party libraries compatibility with your OS on top of firefox.Īnyone who thinks firefox is awesome hasn’t tried to get it to work in another OS before without the UNAME already being supported. In fact, things have gotten worse because now it fails to build with some of this stuff disabled. Then there’s the crap code added for HTML5 video/audio, etc around firefox 4. I’ve gone through re-porting firefox a few times and the security manager code is a nightmare every single time. Well of course the other OS is irrelevant if it doesn’t have firefox right? That’s what you’re trying to fix. If you’re trying to get anything else to work, they have excuses like bloat, irrelevance, etc. If you’re using Linux, windows or mac os, people will take your patches. The same problem exists with most open source projects though, if you’re not the big 3 you get ignored. In the past, Firefox developers have been difficult to work with in my experience. I also like DuckDuckGo, and on the rare occasion it doesn’t find something, it always has !g shortcut for google. It just seems to behave more like an X11 program than Chrome/Chromium/Opera. Could even bee that I think Epiphany uses the GTK3 implementation of webkit.Įither way, I prefer Firefox as well. Not sure if this is a difference in which particular revision of webkit it’s using or if it is some specific additions depending on browser. While Opera now pretty much renders / acts the same way as Chrome/Chromium, it does not act the same as Epiphany, which also uses Webkit. Webkit itself seems like it’s not exactly the same across the board. It wasn’t the best engine out there, but they chose KHTML, and the rest is history.Īnd as your point proves, Opera no longer uses their own engine, and instead uses webkit as well.įunny thing is, last time I used Konqueror (probably 1-2 years ago) they had the option for both KHTML and Webkit, and they rendered the same page slightly differently. They could also very easily have found the cash to buy Operasoft and use their engine. They could just as easily have forked the Mozilla engine. When Apple created WebKit, the did so by forking KHTML, which was a rendering engine created for the KDE platform, and virtually unknown outside of KDE users. The Netherlands is on third spot of bot net command & control servers, since I am from the Netherlands it is not a good idea to add the reule ||*.Why bother forking forking the lesser option?īecause at some point that attitude leads to the lesser option disappearing entirely.Īnd the ‘lesser option’ may actually hold some benefits. Note: When you google for most high level country domains or top levels domains with most malware, phishing, spam, etc be sure to exclude the countries you visit a lot (e.g. hardware.INFO) works well with above rules UBlock blocking a top level domain from VX-Vaultīecause first party is always allowed on HTTPS, even a website with an suffix which I have not whitelisted for easy-medium mode (e.g. (apologize when your country is mentioned here) ! Block all on much abused country code TLD's. ||HTTP://*$third-party,~stylesheet,~image,~media ! Block insecure third-party content except stylesheet, image and media flash) and (hyperling auditing & sending beacons) pings I run ublockOrigin in easy medium mode, meaning I only allow safe third-party content from HTTP (insecure) websites plus third-party scripts and frames from top level domains I normally visit (whitelisted: com, nl, uk, net, org, io) and explicitely block all some much abused TopLevelDomains. javascript: default allow, specifically block HTTP://* and (does not show ads on startpage search results) cookies: default allow, block third-party cookies I have all settings to off (except showing home page button with search engine) and all site permissions to block except: Together with the 'Auto history delete' extension this gives me a clean new tab page after every restart of ungoogled chrome.īecause I have "Validate Admin Signatures" to block UAC elevation of unsigned binaries, Chromium (like edge with flag de-elevate on launch) also runs in a standard user container (Chromium's chrome.exe is unsigned). I download extensions from hxxp:/// I have no search engine in the taskbar. ![]() I am using Marmaduke's ungoogled version from Woolyss because it updates faster. I am using ungoogled chromium as my hardened browser (using Edge as main browser to visit bookmarked websites). ![]()
