I lied there were apparently a couple add-ons I tossed on. Even with everything disabled it's still a bit clunky though. Ideally I'd like to get the bar to be closer to the size it is in Chrome but that may just not be possible. Is how it currently sits. I don't even show an option in View -> Toolbars for an additional one.

I get this with the menu bar disabled, using Classic Theme Restorer, buttons set to Small, and tabs on bottom where they should be. You don't seem to have tried setting the buttons to small.

I don't understand. That's what mine looks like without any cosmetic add-ons.

Are there any add-ons for suspending idle tabs automatically out there? I know there's a built-in feature that sorta works, but restarting my browser every now and then doesn't seem like the best idea, especially on a MacBook that never really shuts down.

There are, but none of the ones I checked the other day seem to have updated since last May, and I suspect Unloadtab broke with a recent browser update.

Anybody else unable to play any youtube videos as of yesterday? I think they're forcing html5 now and I cannot get anything to play, even tried a couple of addons with no luck.

Works fine on my end, If you use YouTubeCenter (assuming) make sure you are using the latest dev build and not "stable" because that one is always months old. https://github.com/YePpHa/YouTubeCenter/wiki/Developer-Version

Youtube has been slow as balls for the last 5-6 days. Every video buffers for 30+ seconds than plays on the lowest quality setting (144p?), and still can't stream without having to re-buffer 2-3 times a minute.

YouTube has switched to HTML5 video for me too and now 1080p seems to no longer be a thing.* I'm on FF35 and I was under the impression that it wouldn't be supported until the next release. Perhaps that is the case. With regard to YouTubeCenter (it's great), I'd bet there'll never be another stable version because YouTube are constantly changing poo poo and breaking it. * It amuses me slightly that Chrome is also unable to play 1080p video because of a DXVA bug.

So now YouTube have switched me back to the flash player. I'd disabled the plug-in too. Oh well, at least I get 1080p.

As always, youtube-dl is the friggin' best. You can both download the videos and pipe stream them in mplayer or another video player. Both video and audio can be downloaded separately.

I've noticed that seeking in HTML5 videos is far worse than it was with Flash Youtube. I also had a video's audio randomly cut out until I skipped back far enough and then forward enough.

xamphear posted:I know there are all sorts of reasons why, but I (and Firefox's users) just don't care. Chrome, Safari and even IE had it for years, and I think they just stopped waiting for Mozilla to catch up. All the social media sites seem to be using it and that has to hurt Firefox's market share. I have the "open in Chrome" add-on and it's a lifesaver. But it's a solution to a problem that never should have existed in the first place.

I was wondering what youtube was up to. Figured it had to be HTML5, since I had googlevideo blocked. It would just load the flash version right after anyway. Doesn't seem to be doing it today. Sadly, the one time I let HTML5 load, it looked worse in quality than the flash.

Firefox just added Firefox Hello to itself today. It's not even after installing any updates or anything. And it wasn't there earlier this week as I was fiddling with the toolbars to get uBlock situated and didn't see it at all. I really wish they'd stop adding these useless features and would instead work on getting their built-in PDF reader to not render like hot poo poo.

However, that doesn't mean that they should get off the hook for dumping in new features that are only functional in that they do what they are supposed to (render PDFs in my example). And then roughly 20 major versions later still not having them do well at what they're supposed to (render PDFs in a way that doesn't look like hot poo poo).

I agree they should stop with useless features like the built in PDF reader. If you want a PDF read get an actual PDF reader.

PDF.js is still being actively worked on. My understanding is that it's not a particularly high priority, though (especially since it's sufficient for the vast majority of PDFs I encounter). If you feel that PDF.js needs further improvement, I recommend filing bugs, or even better, making a pull request. There are a decent number of good beginner bugs to get started with if you'd like to contribute. Otherwise, I suppose you'll just have to accept that others' priorities don't necessarily match your own.

If you're not just encountering some rendering bug with PDF.js, it's likely that you might just be noticing that the fonts are different. Kerning and subpixel rendering looks pretty accurate to me, but if the PDF you're looking at doesn't have embedded fonts then the characters are necessarily going to look different from Adobe's rendering, especially from system-to-system. And if you're not on Windows you can just gently caress right off with any complaints about font rendering and take it up with your OS vendor.
