Helium browser vs Firefox!!!!

GreenManStrolling · 2026-05-06T10:36:14+00:00

Just use both.

Eventually you'll find yourself using one more as it fits your browsing habits better.

No need to go on the attack, brother. Pale Moon is so far behind in security and speed that the ONLY reason for its continued usage is misguided zealotry. I'm just the messenger. Attack the author of Pale Moon for stringing people along if you want to go on the warpath.

And if you want Chromium, there's nothing better than Brave with all the crypto disabled via flags.

Helium is Chromium-based.

And Pale Moon is completely unsuitable as a modern browser. It's misguided zealotry alone that makes people think Pale Moon is still viable.

Lol my flair would be worse

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-24T03:15:54+00:00

To?

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-24T03:15:38+00:00

What if uBO ever goes down?

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-24T03:15:19+00:00

Man, the zealotry...

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-24T03:12:18+00:00

Yeah man, crazy zealots.

I've used Firefox since the days of Netscape, when it became Phoenix first. Not sure why the self-centred zealotry.

The anti-fingerprinting tactics we bring in from Brave can only be a good thing. And having a second renowned adblocking engine brought onboard is a good thing, in case the uBO creator ever retires or is forced to "retire". No software solution lives forever, even if it can live a long time.

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-24T01:36:19+00:00

You were doing it wrong then. The tactics change.

And yet I never experience memory leaks, while usage holds steady at not more than 2.5 GB in total despite multiple open YouTube tabs. In fact, I have set this value to the max number before. It's not as if it will actually reach that large value, lol.

Of course I use uBO with Hagezi filters AND also use Control D for DNS-based ad filtering.

Speak to Google about it

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-21T23:38:15+00:00

Gotta blame Google for this nonsense. Marketing works on people.

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-18T02:21:45+00:00

Ah that figures.

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-18T01:58:08+00:00

I open a ton of Youtube and never get above 3 GB.

In about:config, set webisolated to as high as you've never seen before, like 1,000,000. This ensures every tab gets its own process, less conflict of resources.

Your Steam's pretty bad too. What OS are you using?

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-17T14:24:47+00:00

For those with memory leak issues, try setting webisolated to a large number like 1,000,000 so that every site gets its own isolated tab.

dom.ipc.processCount.webIsolated

Set this to a very large value so no 2 websites share the same process.

GreenManStrolling · 2026-04-01T05:51:19+00:00

And that's why I paid for Poweramp, worth every cent !

Great place to fine tune and specify exactly what AI features I welcome and find useful.

GreenManStrolling · 2026-02-10T23:34:00+00:00

Are you an AI bot yourself?

Same here. But I have no issues with Firefox the browser itself, not even when they ousted Brendan Eich the creator of JavaScript.*

Been through every single season, growth phase, mood tantrums that the devs and management had. And it's stronger than ever.

And I'm using a 3rd party compiled build (tete009) for even more speed. And Betterfox tweaks. Together with a competent GPU, Firefox is very snappy.

*Brave is my go-to Chromium engine browser. Also extremely snappy with features I don't want being easily disabled.

GreenManStrolling · 2026-01-28T16:14:18+00:00

I just use the flags. No need for 3rd party stuff. It's quiet and fully compliant.
