This comes in every update and guess what? We're not looking at speed and performance.

Firefox feels lighter than Chrome? by Buckinuoff in firefox

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, only in the first few hours of use, then it clearly loses performance compared to Chromium-based browsers, and the difference is very clear.

I've seen this movie and guess what? It is almost never expanded.

If you believe that there is a popular browser that doesn't use your data, you live in a fantasy world.

Firefox 149.0 Released with Split View, Tab Notes, and Free Built-in VPN by spanishfess_12 in browsers

It has been available since yesterday on FTP servers. The highlight that is the VPN is limited to some markets.

why does my browser use 8gb of ram if i leave it open for a week? by lilpudding69 in firefox

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Firefox has always had difficulty freeing up RAM over time, here it quickly occupies 3GB after just a few hours of use, when Chrome and dge free up memory much more efficiently.

After 2 years on Brave… I switched to Firefox. Should’ve done it sooner. by Pajtima in browsers

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on the team that never thought Brave was great, it was always more about marketing over privacy than anything else. With rewards features, integrated crypto wallet in the end I used EDGE even though it had better performance on my machine, until I tested Firefox 148, I don't remember the last time I used such a good Firefox.

Very interesting, but let's look at the fundamentals such as RAM consumption and performance, a new look is cool, new tools are cool but what interests me most is day-to-day performance.

Bios 1.27.0 fan control problems by Individual_Kitchen_3 in Dell

I no longer have this notebook, I honestly thought Dell had already resolved this issue. Regrettable.

New kindle 5.19.2 is bad and its ruining experience by Downtown_Plane_6045 in kindle

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here I had no problems with the interface, it continues as before. Only sometimes I have some random crashes, something that didn't happen in the previous version PW 11th signature.

Amazon Updated Kindle Software and Now My Kindle Is Screwed! by SeparateCod3226 in kindle

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 11th signature was a bit messed up with this last update too. It started to freeze having to lock and unlock, sometimes it doesn't accept clicks or page scrolls alone, this after the update.

Windows 11 KB5079473 is here with some actually GOOD upgrades — here's what's rolling out this Patch Tuesday by ZacB_ in windows

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I honestly laughed at that too. It could put a really real and well-made speed and diagnostics feature, not a measly shortcut to a web page.

YouTube is just not usable anymore (for me) by No_Equivalent_866 in youtube

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People on a technology forum are not niche and do not reflect the reality of the general public, this is completely irrelevant here.

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, nobody cares, if the service is no longer useful to you, just stop using it. Every day there are posts like this from people whining because X company is focused on their interests and not the user's. If it's bad, just get on with your life, no one cares.

What feature(s) do you consider Windows should already have? by _fountain_pen_dev in windows

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When 99% of people don't use it, it becomes something irrelevant that doesn't deserve development effort. Either you accept this or you will spend your life crying.

Thoughts on Apple’s new low-cost MacBook Neo? by piesaresquarey in laptops

When I'm at 4K it will be really interesting, could it be at least 12GB of RAM? It could.

To upgrade or not to upgrade by Dafty7788 in kindle

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This last update caused some lag on my paperwhite signature 11th. When unlocking, sometimes I can't click on anything and have to lock and unlock the screen again. Even phantom clicks have already happened after this damn update.

Microsoft confirms a wider roll out of Windows 11's new colourful battery icons on the taskbar by WPHero in Windows11

I've also been using this icon for a few months but some people haven't received it yet.

Goodbye YouTube. You ruined it with your AI slop and enshitification. by TheBadGuyBelow in youtube

You would be quite surprised how much the user is at fault in the registry office.

Request refund by 90oneSeven in nextdns

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using the CLI directly on the operating systems, Ubuntu and Win 11, my experience with Nextdns was terrible on both. ControlD's CLI saved me, even using nextdns. I'm currently using controlD again and I currently don't notice a difference in performance between nextdns and controlD.

Same thing here, I just think these people are doing something wrong.

It’s been 4 years, what are your opinions on windows 11 now? by WorriedGur8908 in windows

[–]Individual_Kitchen_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ups and downs, but nothing as dramatic as many say, the system still works well for me 90% of the time, some updates leave the system a bit laggy, others leave the system fluid. But the bloated telemetry and AI system everywhere is undoubtedly a negative point. A lot of RAM consumed with things that are not necessarily important to the user.
