theres no good reason to use that slow, bloated and shady fork, just use FF with ublock, containers and some tweaks to disable telemetry, youll get a much better experience. and if you want to go full freetard, use icecat instead.

firefox is still complied with spyware and you are at their whims if they decide to make it so you cant disable specific parts at the config level, librewolf just strip it out entirely and its safe to update it always while with firefox you have to wait for arkenfox to update his user.js for all the changes every update. arkenfox usually takes months to finish his config updates but people still update their firefox without realizing this and they would have spyware enabled for months

librewolf is not "stripping out" spyware at the source code level you giant fucking retard. they just use user.js and firefox policies to configure firefox for you because you cannot configure your browser yourself. and oh yes they also change the name and logo and call it a fork. you absolute fucking moron. you goddamn neanderthal.
>>
>>108721645
nigger what do you think a fork is

>my librewolf has a bigger dick than your arkenfox hurrrr
meanwhile here is the reality
https://codeberg.org/librewolf/settings
this is librewolf. all the changes you care about live in that "settings" repository.
> we encourage users to find their own setup and to use our default configuration as something to build on top of. this is now easier thanks to the overrides.
you are obviously too retarded to do this. oh and
> this repository benefits from the knowledge and research provided by arkenfox, so special thanks to the project. we do not use arkenfox's user.js but we try to keep up with it, and we also consider it a great resource for users who want to find their own setup.
they literally just take arkenfox user.js, stick it like a glue on firefox, change the name and logo and call it a fork. congratulations. you are using dishonest trannyware. you fell for it.
>>
>>108721661
something that actually changes the source code of the original software. librewolf doesnt do shit other that turning a few knobs in about:config you braindead moron.
actually with you intentionally dense you are acting you are probably a librewolf dev shilling your shit here. next time, buy an ad. thread hidden.

Lmfao who do these people think they are. Their "project"? When its just Firefox ver. "Woke"? These people are just looking for any excuse to engage in their trans politics in tech space. This is genuinely sad. These people are legit trying to kill free and open source software philosophy. They are a worse problem than AI slop.

I have no clue. I never restart my PC and just leave my browser at all times. After a while it'll climb up to a point that everything gets really sluggish, audio keeps playing from videos even after closing the tab, sites don't load, etc. Once I restart the browser, everything works again and the RAM usage will fall from 10GB+ to 4GB, which is reasonable these days.
>>
>>108718872
The bigger issue here is the "absolutely not apolitical" comment (which just do happens to be insanely common with trannies)
As >>108721767 said it's just another example of an activist using technology as a vector for forcing their own personal beliefs. If it was activism for personal privacy, free software, etc then that'd be much more acceptable as at least it's highly relevant, but no it's whatever the current established norms for their political party are. Pro-censorship "people" should not be allowed anywhere near free software and open source.

I noticed this tool, even on a very stripped down non-chromium browser. It's really weird. The only explanation I can think of is that there might be extensions that constantly pull data from their servers for updates, but that shouldn't bloat the RAM to this degree
>>
>>108721662
What do you use then?
>>
>>108724681
What I thought is that maybe it's just caching to RAM literally everything. That's the only way I can think of for it to keep consuming more RAM over time. If that's the case, then all browsers are fucking stupid for doing that.

>hurr durr muh privacy
You live in 2026. Your privacy is invaded 24/7 without consent. No matter how many settings you tweak, no matter what app or software you use, no matter what private client you alternate to, no matter what kind of self-host you use, someone is always spying you. Even on 4chan you're at the mercy of the government (did you already forget the files and the leaks?)
The only way to achieve true privacy is to rid yourself of all electronic devices and live in the woods as a hermit. Going halfway isn't going to get you anything
>>
>>108719024
idk if you mean that picture is wrong but it's 100% right, we see this shit happening with Arch age verification and deleting xlibre from the wiki. Blanket bans across every dissenting voice for being emotional while there is archived evidence of the developers and admins going on huge tirades against the userbase in violation of every CoC there is. Nobody gives a fuck. CoC just exists as a reason to ban anyone who doesn't join a discord cult of personality.

I believe that OpenBSD is the best OS once you strip the amdgpu code, it is "finished" as in it is complete and mostly perfected. You could add some async to it using lessons learned from DragonFlyBSD maybe but that would be a cherry on top.

For the next thing I think about doing, I think I'll spend a good bit of time debloating the Firefox engine. It's massive and has a lot of shit that is no longer needed.

>>108727644

to me and most others, twerking is sexual. when you depict children engaging in sexual acts it becomes pedophilic (defined by sexual attraction to children)
>>
>>108727677
I looked up the movie, it's not pedophilic. She's dancing, it's a panda, there are no genitals. The consensus is htat the movie is not pedophilic, and it's not fair at all to say that Mozilla supports pedophilia. It is against their community guidelines

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/participation/
>>
>>108727698
hmm. idk. I kind of still think it's for pedophiles.
they made zootopia for furries right before this, and though it's not overtly sexual, furries still were supposed to and did beat off to it.
The plot is basically about children going through puberty and getting horny for the first time, there's the target audience on paper and then there's the target audience that pays bonanza bucks
>>
>>108727793
The movie is clearly marketed for children, I don't like the art style at all. Even as a Californian I don't like calarts most of the time. I do like Steven Universe but steven universe's calarts and gumball even aren't anywhere near as bad as the art style as this to me.

>furries were supposed to beat off to it [zootopia]

I disagree. Anyone can jack off to anything.

Also consider My Little Pony. (Don't post pictures of ponies on /g/ though)
