Fangs404 posted:Yeah, same thing. I really really want tabs as separate processes. In fact, if I had it my way, I'd tell the FF dev team to stop everything they're doing, and only work on tabs as separate processes. I think it's that important. Web pages are getting more and more JS-heavy, and a really complicated page can lock up the entire browser for a second or 2. Looking at individual tabs, I don't think there's really a speed difference anymore between Chrome and FF, but looking at the browser as a whole, Chrome is definitely faster since one tab loading won't hold up the others. You don't need separate processes to do that, firefox's UI thread just likes to lock up.

WattsvilleBlues posted:I have awful problems with Firefox responsiveness. I think Adblock Plus causes most of them though. I can't even watch YouTube anymore without pauses every few seconds. It's definitely some other extension, or possibly live bookmarks / RSS feeds refreshing if you have a ton of them. You can check out this list but I don't think it's all that exhaustive.

MachinTrucChose posted:Actually, it did! Same video now using zero CPU when paused, and it plays fine. Thanks. It checks for updates automatically, but only lets you know if they're available right after you log in after rebooting.

Mr.Radar posted:Also, it's generally a good idea to keep Aero enabled so you can take advantage of hardware accelerated desktop graphics on Windows Vista/7. Yeah, and if the transparency irks you, you can dive into Personalize your computer -> Window color and disable it. You could even tweak the color sliders to look like Basic if you like that color!

How do I get Firefox to remember all of my history instead of not quite a year's worth?

pseudorandom name posted:The combined total number of stored history entries and bookmarks is limited to a dynamically calculated value based on your memory and disk space. Thanks. I don't know why I would possibly care, but something just feels right about being able to call up a page from 3 years ago

Fangs404 posted:What issues? A better solution is to fix the problems than pretend they don't exist. I don't program Firefox extensions and I shouldn't be expected to.

Install Gentoo posted:What is the best extension for forcing a page to allow the browser to save username and password? The library system I use has the whatever thing set so firefox won't remember the password and I want to get past that.

Eikre posted:For some reason, all videos on Youtube are showing up left-justified instead of inline with description and comments. Ugly as hell. Are you sure you aren't using some Greasemonkey script or "Youtube improver" addon?

Anyone have any RSS reader suggestions? I may have to come to grips with the fact that infoRSS might not get updated for 29. Anything using browser history like RSS Ticker is no good because I have a couple of feeds that use the same URL for new entries.

Just jumped from 35 to 38. Was there some sort of about:config setting I needed to tweak to turn off the ad tiles in upcoming versions, or is setting the new tab page to blank good enough?

If you want to turn off the completely ridiculous fade effect on fullscreening video, the about:config setting is not browser.fullscreen.animate, it's full-screen-api.transition-duration.enter and full-screen-api.transition-duration.leave. Set both of them to 0 0.

jeeves posted:The SA forum style changed in like... Jan 1st 2015? 2014? I can't remember, but I installed Stylish or Greasemonkey to make the forum style look like the pre-change one. Now something changed and it has reverted to the lovely new style. I've been using these forums since 2001 so I don't like the new style OKAY? Edit the grease monkey script you're using to point to 'forums2.css' instead of 'forums.css'. As far as I can tell that's the only thing that changed this month

What do people use for mouse/rocker gestures in Quantum? I think that's just about the only thing I use regularly that hasn't been converted to WebExtensions in some shape or form.
