firefox recently even caught up to chrome on the speedometer benchmark, which is nice.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
I do think that Chromium based browsers are better though.
In which sense?
5·1 year agomc(aka. GNU Midnight Commander) , nice layout controls, ini configuration for filetypes+actions and built-in remote protocol integrations
1·1 year ago- Can you give more information about your setup/system and firefox installation/version? ESR? Flatpak? DEB?
- Can you give any steps for others to reproduce/compare your issue?
A first good ideas is always to create a second seperate profile (for example via
about:profiles) and see if your issue can be reproduced with a fresh one without any modifications. The result will give a solid hint if your problem is profile or browser/system related.
Is this about Linux gaming?
maybe, if you can edit
about:config
Override the user-agent string presented to Google Search pages to receive the search experience shown to Chrome on Firefox for mobile / tablet.

We just don’t have spare time to learn a whole new fucking language.
well one should always try to consider the amount of time that can be saved, the complexity that is required to establish it and the potential time required to maintain it.

Reminds me of … (a bit on the long side, but i’d say worth the read, if you have some time)
… I’d still watch it.
changing swap file size
Not 100% sure if i undestand you correctly, but there is for example gparted for partition managment
At the current time this seems kind of untrue. There are many GUI Applications in the repos, which provide alternatives or are wrappers for existing CLI applications. - Perfect for people who dont yet feel comfortable working with programms purely in a terminal.
By which you mean fiddling with /etc/fstab to mount a tmpfs partition and pointing the cache directory at that?
on linux, yes
Any pros and cons you know about?
- those who already have a ramdisk it might be pretty easy to use it and just change one preference
- the ramdisk will remain until reboot so you can close your browser and you still retain the cache (might be useful depending on peoples workflow and sites they visit)
I wish Firefox had a simple on-off switch instead of needing a bunch of config tweaks to do this.
- Sounds like a good idea to propose on https://connect.mozilla.org
Sorry to bother, but just fyi,
Privacy Badger, doenst bring anything to the table that uBO cant/doenst cover and having mutliple adblockers installed might even make the result unpretictable (the arkenfox wiki, explains that pretty well) Also Decentraleyes is outdated but there is the active fork https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/localcdn-fork-of-decentraleyes/
Hope these infos help or are at least a bit interesting.
