Re: What's your favorite internet browser?
I think Chrome has potential....but I refuse to use a browser made by a company that got miserably rich off spam....I won't use anything made by them....with the exception of the occasional search of course...<--- Badcaps.net Founder

Re: What's your favorite internet browser?
I concur with the spam part. I don't use gmail because of the high spam amount, but Chrome seems more secure then Firefox in my opinion.Comment

SRWare Iron (Google Chrome clone that doesn't "phone home") and Waterfox (Firefox in 64Bit, working around the 2GB limitation of 32Bit programs like the regular Firefox).
Every now and then I use Opera too, even though the default UI is a total pain in the ass.. needs a lot of modding and removing crap to be usable.
In theory, I should select Chrome or Firefox, but I decided to use "other" instead.Comment

Re: What's your favorite internet browser?
If I had to choose one browser for the rest of my life, I think it would be Firefox.
It sure has its own set of issues, but it would win on features because the sheer number of add-ons and all manner of customisability.
I like being able to change things to exactly how I want them, not how some stupid developer decided I should want them.
However, I use all the major browsers fairly equally (and some of the not-so-major) depending on what I feel like at the time, I don't really have an all time favourite. Maybe IE since I've been using it the longest."Tantalum for the brave, Solid Aluminium for the wise, Wet Electrolytic for the adventurous"

Excuse me while i do something dangerous
You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.
Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

Re: What's your favorite internet browser?
Even IdiotExploder 6 is less demanding, at least til malware takes it over!
Pre Fuck-a-Fox Mozilla, behind webwasher, for "unvetted" things, and iron for the "rich-web" stuff. Hosts file in either case..."pokemon go... to hell!"
EOL it...

Re: What's your favorite internet browser?
See cappy. Also note multiple, pre-deduped "revisions" of hosts files.
Isn't a hosts file so much better than "loading shit, then hiding shit?" I speak of none other than AdUnBlock Minus.
der Google pays ABP to let certain things through. The sheep will deny this, since someone claims to "do no evil," but the non-sheep see right through the bullshit..."pokemon go... to hell!"

Re: What's your favorite internet browser?
I´m a confessing IE user for more than 15 years.
I see no reason to believe that the Mozilla Foundation or Google is going to spy on me on a smaller scale than Microsoft does. As long as I´m running Windows Microsoft is probably able to spy no matter what browser I´m using.
I didn´t have too many troubles related to security issues of the Internet Explorer.
For browsing "less secure" sites I switch to Debian / Firefox anyway.Comment

by momakaWell first off, Nappy New Year to everyone!
So what's going on?! - How come we don't have an OS thread for this year?Did everyone just move to using phones? Windows 11 killed everything?
Or perhaps now that some of us have the Covid vaccines, I guess M$ is already running in our bodies so we don't really need computers anymore, right?
(OK, I probably better not open that can of worms here.
)
Anyways, ya'll know the drill: vote what OS you're running on your "main" PC.
I know that might be tricky for all of...Windows 110%3Windows 100%8Windows 8/8.10%2Windows 70%4Legacy Windows (Vista, XP, 2k3, 2k, 9x)0%1Mac OS/OSX0%3Some flavor of Linux (brag on your distro in a post)0%4What's a PC? My phone can do everything I need in this world!!!11oneone0%1-

by bigbearkFirefox just seizes up when I try to play YouTube video on older machines.
I did a search and found a list of the following alternative lightweight browsers: UR Browser,
K-Meleon, Midori, Pale Moon and MaxThon 5.
I have visited all the websites. Midori and Pale Moon are available as binaries in Debian and Ubuntu flavours. Looks like the distro of choice for these is Xubuntu. You use Terminal commands to download the repositories. Has anyone tried this and what was the experience like? Is it likely one can stream HTML5 on 32-bit single core machines like Socket A or dual...-

by DXseekerMOHello again everyone!
I have a Sharp LC-70LE757U. When I try to sign on to YouTube or access some apps I get a security warning saying "The server www.youtube.com presented a certificate issued by an entity that is not trusted, proceed anyway?" If I proceed this same warning continuously pops up.
If I factory reset the TV sometimes the apps will come up, and sometimes I have to factory reset the TV up to 3 times to get them to work. The apps will then work until the next day and I have to reset the TV again, sometimes up to 3 times to get them to work.... - Loading...
