Thought I’d never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.
There’s also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/
That inverted Y axis without defining score is terrible. Just terrible.
For those wondering Chrome is faster according to this guy. Firefox has gotten faster meaning it caught up to Chrome in a GOOD way, vs bad.
Meanwhile I constantly feel like webpages across the board just load like ass these days. Should be no reason Ublock Origin with a fast ass CPU, 32g of Ram and a good internet connection doesn’t just instant load websites. Nope, gotta wait for Ublock to kill off a bunch of stuff, cookie banners to pop up… Ask me to login… I’m getting old lol.
It’s not even that Ublock/bloat is slowing things down, web sites are plagued by bad development and multi-standard requirements leading to tons of wasted processing time waiting for elements which eventually error out. I’ve analyzed performance on multiple websites, even big-name and high-traffic websites like Youtube and found that 60%+ of load time is just sitting there doing barely any processing while waiting for extra remote services to be contacted only to never load and finally fail allowing to page to go interactable. It’s like having a beast of a computer but forgoing actual RAM in place for pagefile-as-ram; all other components could be amazing, but you’re paying that performance tax no matter what.
Why can’t we go back to php and HTML? Why can’t we go back to web1? Why can’t we go back to the days when the internet was an Eldridge city waiting to be explored!? ITS BECUASE OF THE FUCKING CORPATIZATION SOUL SUCKING MODEL OF THE INTERNET WE HAVE NOW!!! They wouldn’t let us go back even if we stopped using the internet all together becuase there will still be those users that are dumb enough to saty on and swallow ads! Do you know how much time I waste on stupid sites like youtube!? HOURS! its by design to, keep you addicted, unaware and numb, and you wont have enough energy to fight back! IM FED UP WITH WEB2! I’m taking my cat silanced ar and heading to silicon valley! WHOS WITH ME!? ITS TIME FOR CHANGE!?
If you’re looking to get hacked on day one… go ahead lmao
I’d suggest a good browser but I’d get banned here most likely
Ik, you’re right. I’m just so fucking angry.
uBO hard mode + whitelist + LocalCDN. Everything loads as fast as network allows.
I’m sorry, did you say you wanted to enable notifications?
Hissssssss
Turn off java. 🤷🏿♂️
Interesting. Why is chrome faster than chromium? I thought chrome was chromium with bells and whistles.
Predictive preloading has an effect, I’d guess.
Of the nefarious user-aware kind?
Now do something about its endless thirst for RAM.
Why the fuck is Chrome holding 8 GB hostage when it’s minimized??
I’ve only got 8GB. Good thing I don’t use Chrome!
Yeah that ain’t happening
I can’t wait to fully switch to Firefox as soon as HDR is fully implemented!
Huh?
I recently bought two HDR monitors and noticed there is no HDR support on things like youtube videos. Chromium based browsers support it though so for the time being I’m using Opera GX.
Waterfox has had it since 2022, btw.
https://github.com/WaterfoxCo/Waterfox/releases/tag/G5.0Awesome thanks for the heads up!
So I checked it out and it appears it only has support for it on Mac. Time to continue waiting patiently!
Last browser standing that will support adblockers in the future.
Firefox FTW.
…Why dafuq is the score inversed?
I see they didn’t measure startup speed.
