My favorite part of Firefox is Ublock Origin.

[-] BleakBluets@lemmy.world 129 points 9 months ago

Mine is the tail plug, but UO is a strong second.

I’m all for people using Firefox instead of Chrome, but RAM being used up shouldn’t be a complaint unless something else needs that RAM. If it’s there, it should be considered usable.

[-] brap@lemmy.world 35 points 9 months ago

Yep, I didn't buy that RAM to sit being unused.

[-] xan1242@lemmy.dbzer0.com 38 points 9 months ago

It's specifically about the efficiency of the usage. If it's not used effectively, then it really is a waste.

And we all know how efficient the Web is nowadays...

If it did a good job freeing it up when needed then sure, but it doesn't.

Yeah. Use Firefox or kiss a free Internet goodbye.

[-] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 30 points 9 months ago

I worry even Firefox is losing its principles on the matter.

[-] programmer_belch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 9 months ago

Then use a firefox fork that's more in line with your beliefs. It's a pro of open source

I'm never giving it up out of principle, but I dunno about the RAM usage. Firefox was above 7GB last I looked. I have RAM to spare though, so I don't really care.

And not very efficiently either, can't seem to handle 99+ tabs and starts getting unstable as you get closer to that number.

Chrome at least can handle 300-600 tabs across 30 windows (The most I've ever pushed it) without breaking a sweat

[-] SkyeHarith@lemmy.world 60 points 9 months ago

I think you have a tab problem.

I suggest you try out a 12 step program. Tabaholics Anonymous works.

[-] jewbacca117@lemmy.world 31 points 9 months ago

Are you the guy that posted on the Microsoft forums about Edge crashing after 1600 open tabs?

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago

Hell the fuck no, I only ever run a single tab in edge, the tab to download another browser

FUCK edge

Yep, I use Firefox for the idea, but let's stop kidding ourselves that it is in any way memory efficient or fast

[-] DenizEfe@lemm.ee 48 points 9 months ago

Best thing about Firefox is stability somehow it works nearly all devices

They should, might be in a better mood then..

[-] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 41 points 9 months ago

I was at a party a few weeks ago and when we needed to use a web browser, one of the first things that happened was one of the attendees taking the computer to install FireFox.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 36 points 9 months ago

I put in a tailplug and put on fox ears every time I use Firefox.

[-] Wes_Dev@lemmy.ml 29 points 9 months ago

"I'm so used to getting fucked by Chrome and Edge that I just feel like something's missing if I don't."

[-] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I actually got kicked out of school because I wouldn't use internet explorer, but Firefox is still the best option. Always was. Even if you need a special chair.

Ngl, I've never had issues with either for ram. my experience with Firefox is mostly the sameas chrome with ram usage. The main reason Im on Firefox is cause it's been a whole lot more stable for me than chrome.

Firefox users may very well be doing that and no one will know because Google is not spying on them through their browser.
