@thorstenzoeller @doerk that's a great page. reminds me of a purposeful design choice from the Gemini protocol project; it's all text for similar reasons.

๐Ÿค Appeal to the Browser Goddesses ๐Ÿค

Can we please make it a thing where 32GB of RAM isn't an insufficient amount for day to day web browser usage? Getting an OOM core dump for that reason is inexcusable.

  • Should the Zoom browser app really need 2GB on a single tab when it's already downscaling a 1080p feed to 320p on an enterprise account?
  • Should Amazon's website really need 1GB per tab just to view the cart or a ~800Mb for a single simple product page?
  • Please remind me how an MKdocs fully static page with a single 400k image and no datatables or fancy JS somehow require 242Mb?
  • Or perhaps shed some light on the requirement where Google's main page with a single search form somehow needs ~500Mb

There are no "good reasons" for these inefficiencies. We don't suddenly have better search fields or compressed jpegs now vs a decade ago with 1/10th of the system resources.

@X_BSD@mstdn.social indeed, which is why I run those from an isolated jail. it's a slight amount of cli commands but otherwise nicely secured.

@toran@mastodon.tjs.is Brave is awesome overall, and at present their sync chain method has been nearly impervious to split-brain conflicts across multiple devices.

Otter browser is ultra minimalist approach, has almost no chrome or aesthetics to alter, which is a benefit and detriment depending on use case. I like using it for single window admin apps (iKVM, iDRAC, PiKVM, etc) due to the lower resource load.

@Cheradenine@sh.itjust.works hello bot ๐Ÿ‘€, how goes it?

Perhaps one day the internal browser wars will subside, my transit history will persist a single cache, my settings and extensions and preferences will export to a single file...

One can dream... instead there's...

Firefox
LibreWolf
Chromium
Ungoogled-Chromium
Iridium
Otter
Brave (via linuxulator)
Vivaldi (via ^^)

The first four receive an approximate equal share of my attention. Loader scripts for multi-profile non-Singleton-Locked states, alterations to pixel/dpi scale, de-clutterization, dark-plugins, blockers, ooooooh make it stop

@JackbyDev Why would that be a question at all? Buy a domain name and take care of your dns records.

that's an odd way to say that you don't own any domains. that's step one, but does it even need to be said?
