That's unfortunately not enough. What about all default uBlock filters? For blocking YouTube ads, you can enable uBlock filters – Quick fixes and GoodbyeAds-YouTube-AdBlock-Filter. In my thread, you will find my latest release containing all these filter lists and more. And in my article, you will find corresponding images of the tab Filter lists. In any case, I don't get ads in YouTube videos when using my mod uBlock Origin Legacy.

Yes it is. That's what "Alex F." (Thorium) wrote at his official github page. Not long after "Alex F." edited his profile and changed location from Russia to US. "I just tweak a few things, and do the necessary steps to remove Supermium branding..." He didn't, the maker himself did. Familiarize yourself with his statement. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/363#issuecomment-1998666719

We'd like to see some hard proof of that. Like @NotHereToPlayGames always puts it - "gut feeling doesn't count".

Mass Production.

Latest release published mere minutes ago; the first one (non-BETA) to officially support WinXP on both 32 & 64-bits, the same is true for Windows Vista SP2: https://github.com/Alex313031/thorium-legacy/releases/tag/M122.0.6261.168 As instructed, read all the Release Notes very carefully and then be extra meticulous on selecting and running the most suitable installation files (including Fonts) for your OS+bitness!

That's right. But this thread is actually about @roytam1's browser releases. :OT You have to import these filter lists in your uBO version. You can find them all on https://filterlists.com/. :END OF OT

I know that, of course. It wasn't directed at you either, but at those who are annoyed by websites that don't load properly in @roytam1's browsers. In the end, many of them can be loaded quite well if you do it right.

New Moon 28 is the browser I mainly use from @roytam1's releases. Many websites can be loaded without serious problems. But of course, there are bloated and cumbersome sites which are loading terribly. However, some of them can be edited with the help of uBlock Origin so that they run reasonably well again. For example, you can neuter the GMX homepage and completely remove all the news, adverts, videos and so on. Or use the right filter lists to access news pages like The New York Times again. On PCWelt, around 1000 elements are blocked with my activated filter lists and runs super smoothly again. However, without uBO, it would make no sense to access such websites on older machines.

Done, upvoted your post, as asked.

You only need to post 1 answer and wait for another player to respond. Otherwise it's cheating,,,

@NotHereToPlayGames When it comes to uBO's default lists, most YouTube filtering is taken care of from uBlock filters – Ads, I'd have to check whether the ones from uBlock filters – Quick Fixes add anything important for that particular site, I keep it enabled though. Filters mainly clear up responses from their servers dealing with video content, stripping bits that insert ads, basically a bunch of JavaScript proxies intercepting fetch/XMLHttpRequest calls.

ramdrv4m - Universal RAM Drive for Windows 9x https://github.com/LordOfMice/Tools/blob/master/ramdrv4m.zip Features description: 1. Memory support above 4GiB (default mode). Primary purpose of creating this software. 2. A full-fledged 32-bit protected mode driver. 3. High speed of operation. 4. Can utilize RAM Drives created in memory by other software. In particular, it is compatible with RAMDSK32/64 from RLoew. 5. It consumes only 4MiB of virtual address space. In addition to the real memory used for RAM Drive itself, of course. 6. Works on Pentium and higher class processors (i.e. it does not work on 80486). As usual - readme is your best friend...

I would never use two ad blockers at once. uBlock Origin is totally sufficient and can block most things. But it has to be configured correctly. Your five lists are not sufficient. Even the two YouTube lists can't change that. All filter lists under "Built-in" should be enabled. But uBO can do much more. You can remove annoying elements from websites and create your own filters, and so on. And BTW, one further extension consumes more resources than enabling a few filter lists in uBO.

... I totally agree with you on this ; but you didn't have to convince me in the first place ... However, try to preach to the number of members here who are (still) under the impression that using a content blocker (such as uBO) will "significantly slow down" their browsing experience on their antiquated H/W ... Yes, uBO does consume a slight RAM portion to do its job, but if you're very low on RAM (< 512MB), you probably shouldn't face the current web with that machine of yours ...

Well all my operating systems are on 'bare metal' and I hope they always will be! I didn't actually import my 360Chrome profile into Thorium. I imported it into Supermium, and then imported the Supermium profile into Thorium! As Thorium and Supermium are so similar, I thought that was the best way to do it. I can't think of any reason why a 360Chrome profile wouldn't work directly in Thorium though.

I agree, but I would add that there are many, many other sites like that. That's why whenever I can I insist on never relying directly on those. Always download what they offer from outside, using other tools, avoiding advertising, viruses, etc. Every day there are more and more ways to bypass the crap.

I use Directory Opus to make a floating toolbar. They can have any sort of application or macro on them. I set mine to show/hide with a keystroke and macro but they can show and hide with just moving the mouse near them or dock to any side of the screen permanently. They can also live on the desktop sort of like Stardock Fences but on steroids. It's a more complex program than just that, it's a full featured file manager that is more operating system than file manager, but this is what my toolbar looks like.

Is there a solution for the "ISRG Root X2" certificate so that an encrypted connection can be established with 360Chrome? Test page: https://valid-isrgrootx2.letsencrypt.org/

Unfortunately Microsoft haven't added any native vertical taskbar to W11 despite all the clamoring for it by users (including even Microsoft employees). The alternative is literally Linux if they continue down the path of stripping features and annoying users (KDE Plasma has a faster and more consistent UI than W11, something I never thought I'd wind up saying, which says more about the state of W11 than KDE). Removing a 30 year old, popular feature is such a bizarre move for a company that has prided itself on compatibility. (Kinda off topic but also on-topic, given my recently reported SAB bugs with the vertical taskbar and their apparent plans to remove legacy fallbacks altogether. I'm more than a little frustrated by MS.)

And now a tip for maintaining your uBlock Origin installation. If you enable and disable or add and delete filter lists more frequently, especially the big ones, your ublock0.sqlite file in your profile subfolder extension-data will become bloated. From time to time, I therefore recommend to backup all your settings. close your browser, delete the ublock0.sqlite file, restart the browser and restore your settings from your backup file. And there is a reason for my recommendation. Although only recently installed, this file ublock0.sqlite has swollen to 60 MB in my installation of uBO. After my maintenance, it shrunk to 30 MB with the same settings. 50% less! And the smaller this file, the better. Less RAM consumption, better performance. But one thing is of course clear. Sooner or later, this file will become bloated again. That's why I said that this file should be maintained from time to time, especially to get rid of outdated content. Cheers, AstroSkipper

You couldn't run it on XP or even Vista. It happened only recently. And Thorium from that era was based on 109 Chrome, it simply couldn't be "unstable" on officially supported OS. We are interested only in recent tests.

I have ran (in VM only) some Thorium releases in the past. LONG before Supermium was ever a thing! I did find Thorium to be STABLE. Even with only 2GB RAM allocated to the VM. Like it or not, Supermium is simply NOT THERE -- *yet* I personally don't mind, in the least, viewing Thorium EXACTLY as we did 360Chrome "in the days of forgotten lore". Nobody trusted 360Chrome in the beginning either. It was MSFN Members that evolved it into something we were comfortable with. Logging its every connection, hex editing .dll's, customizing GUI, et cetera. Nothing wrong, in the least, with doing the same to Thorium... And Supermium... Show a screen cap of Thorium making a questionable connection. The "throw granny from the cliffs" scare tactic approach isn't doing anybody any good.

Let's employ some Aristotelian logic in the form syllogism: Premise: 1) Supermium has memory leaks on XP 2) Supermium crashes on XP 3) Thorium is completely stable on XP Conclusion: Thorium is different from Supermium. I don't know what he's doing differently, but whatever it is that he's doing, the result is a product that I can actually use... MyPal and Supermium are nice, but for now, the only stable browsers in my opinion with any degree of functionality in XP are Thorium , 360Chrome, and Serpent (and perhaps possibly other @roytam1 browsers I've not looked into). Yes, MyPal works in theory, but has nowhere near the degree of stability of FF52-based Serpent when hardware acceleration is enabled. 360Chrome was my daily driver for a while, but it is no longer being updated and it was rough around the edges. I've had the same instance of Thorium running on XP with no stability issues at all. It's not perfect, it won't work with certain sites, but it's an excellent daily driver for an XP machine, the best out there right now.

Shooting Range.

I liked the presentation. Programming is really a royal PITA. Sometimes I forget about that.

On the bright side, I like the extended support for compressed archives. I've been using the good 'ol QTTabBar for several years now, it has the function to open folder in-place, a sort of popup with folder content appears if you click the down arrow that appears when hovering over certain spot with mouse near the folder. Extended support for such archives (7Z, TAR, RAR...) means the function works for peeking inside those as well, not just ZIPs. Is it an older printer? If it's semi-modern printer, chances are they could just print from their phones.

i tested that website with a nativ win7 machine (with all upgrades) and a unchanged official chrome 109 supermium is already far above that, as seen even on win7 and on a nativ win10 machine with edge win10´s edge might show a few more, but not all while supermium shows all of them

If you go back a page or two Tihiy stated that he's reached an agreement with Microsoft to disable the classic taskbar by default on new 24H2 installs. I read that as when a new user on 24H2 installs StartAllBack they will have to manually enable the enhanced classic taskbar. Based on the feature flag to disable it and the fact that Microsoft is flagging apps that use it it seems that they want to discourage use because they may not be able to remove it entirely for compatibility reasons with legacy software. That's my theory, if they could remove it it would have been gone already when they removed the old systray. They've resorted to crippling it instead. Hopefully the media attention and backlash will result in them turning a blind eye, use at your own risk. That's what we have to hope for. Edit: I also want to advise building a plan B, evaluate your workflow and see where you can build a new workflow with other tools around the new taskbar worst case scenario. I know I've already figured out how I will manage with the new taskbar if forced to use it.

And I completely agree in that it is (and has to be) XP OS issues - which brings us to supermium. I have to say that that guy @win32has delivered. I will make time to install an OS I've never used, to see his work directly on target (I would also call it fair game -and good practice- to point out that to have an open source community working with you, in your software, side by side with a shinier and prettier plus plus built around the thing we probably don't (or sadly can't) use -those would be acceptable terms, I guess). Be well.

Thorium isn't re-badged Supermium. The Thorium-Legacy XP build uses progwrp.dll from Supermium -- that doesn't make it a re-badge. I use Thorium on ALL my computers... The flexibility is excellent because they have specialized Windows 7 builds for particular instruction sets... My Ivy bridge gets Thorium-AVX. My Haswell gets Thorium-AVX2, etc... This said, I left Thorium open all night on my XP machine - it is perfectly stable so far, with no memory leaks -- something Supermium could not do.

it works. tyvm

Stop threatening MSFN members. If you are so disgusted by the collective decision of the Reddit's highly respected community to officially label it as "child pornography distribution", if you don't agree with the results of the investigation, just ignore those posts. And this matter is directly related to the compromised security of that browser and safety of MSFN members, consequently - it's not off-topic.

Ethical reasons, also.

Stop writing this nonsense under every post mentioning Thorium. If you are so disgusted by him, just ignore those posts.

That's why I need SAB!
