@UCyborg You are absolutely right. MSFN uses definitely responsive design. I have installed a nice extension called Window Resizer and set up the same resolution as on my tablet. In portrait format, I now get the same, mobile view as on my tablet. Here is a screenshot with mobile view in Thorium under Windows XP simulating my Android 9 tablet: In this mobile view, MSFN websites called up in Thorium are more responsive and faster in loading than in desktop view.

Thanks for the hint! Unfortunately, Thorium takes ages to load MSFN pages. New Moon 28 and Mypal 68 load them very quickly. Of course, all on my very old hardware. Interestingly, I changed the window resolution of the Thorium browser. And indeed, reducing the resolution leads to loading the MSFN pages a bit faster.

Yep! Exactly! And I'm no longer in the mood for that.

As I have already mentioned several times, I have been an experienced Android user for more than 14 years. On mobile devices, there is a so-called "desktop view" function in the browser. All websites in mobile browsers are loaded in reduced mode by default, which is also called "mobile view". So, everyone can choose the desired mode themselves. I have retrofitted exactly this function in my Thorium installation with the help of certain extensions. And also in Mypal 68 for reasons of comparison. Many websites that are called up in "mobile view" then load much faster in Thorium. But it's not that easy to trick websites and convince them that you're really accessing them on a mobile device. MSFN, for example, refuses to offer the mobile version in Thorium and Mypal 68. But more about that later.

Yep! And I got additionally a warning from Windows XP in form of a yellow warning triangle and an error message. In Mypal 68, however, it works fine without any problems. I think Thorium has to be improved for better website compatibility and general performance on old OSes like, for example, Windows XP. The browser is still too clumsy. Surfing is not really fun. Perhaps, it is still dragging along components that are not really needed in Windows XP. A little neutering might be a good idea. The RAM consumption, however, is really good.

Copyright-protected content is also offered for download on this website and therefore conflicts significantly with our forum rules. For this reason, I do not provide a link to Instagram either, as this site provides content that is also absolutely incompatible with our forum rules. Even not for testing purposes.

Done.

I avoided to post the link due to our forum rules. But I can send you the link via PM.

MSFN doesn't really run well in Thorium either. It creeps from side to side. In Mypal 68 and New Moon 28, MSFN works great and fast.

A very good website to get information for cinematic enthusiasts. You don't always have to think the worst. And I was asked which pages don't work. Apart from that, the browser repeatedly hangs when starting and loading websites, like most Chrome browsers that have been ported to Windows XP, such as 360Chrome. BTW, Instagram is the most toxic one ever. Anyway! I am just in testing mode. And nothing is left out.

For example, Instagram stucks on first site. No content, no login window. Fortunately, I don't use it. And the website NOX caused my first, serious crash of Thorium.

As far as I can see after all my performed tests, Thorium is still in beta stage. Many websites are not shown correctly. So, we will see how the development of this browser will go on. Generally, Thorium works even on my old computer even though we live in the age of seemingly limitless computer resources. But one thong is clear. It is much slower than Mypal 68 or New Moon 28, at least on my hardware.

For me, the logger works in Mypal 68.14.1b with uBlock Origin 1.57.2 (tested in single-process mode) as it should. I can log every website and am able to select all results or the results of each opened website by clicking onto the corresponding entry in the logger's address bar.I don’t have to click right anywhere in the logger window, Could it be that you are simply using the logger incorrectly? Here is a little tutorial: First, start the logger. Then load pages. Now, select the window inside the address bar of the logger you want to observe. You can only observe pages in the logger that have been loaded before, of course. Cheers, AstroSkipper

Use JustOff's tool MozJAR Recompressor: https://github.com/JustOff/mozjarr/tree/master All about re-compressing such files was already discussed here: https://msfn.org/board/topic/184051-my-browser-builds-part-4/?do=findComment&comment=1248092 and here: https://msfn.org/board/topic/184051-my-browser-builds-part-4/?do=findComment&comment=1247872 Cheers, AstroSkipper

I tested a lot of sites like MSFN, GitHub, NY Times, Google, Chip, PCWelt, GMX and so on. TBH, I do not use Instagram anyways but this site indeed does not load correctly. BTW, I have only 1.5 GB SD-RAM.

:OT Unfortunately, there are really no forks of browsers which bring newer browser versions to older Android versions. Thus, my old, beloved Samsung Galaxy S3 with the old Android 4.3 stucks on very old browser versions. When setting up my new Galaxy smartphone, I will probably root the S3 device to upgrade it to Android 7. Just for fun, of course! The good is my tablet is on Android 9 and still gets the most recent browser versions from the Chrome world. :END OF OT

BTW, the same filter list is used in the most recent webextension uBock Origin 1.57.2 as in the legacy versions: https://www.void.gr/kargig/void-gr-filters.txt

The Greek filter list is reachable here from Germany, too. [Adblock Plus 1.1] ! Title: Greek AdBlock Filter ! Version: 2023112600 ! Expires: 2 days ! Homepage: https://github.com/kargig/greek-adblockplus-filter ! License: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ But this list doesn't seem to be maintained on a regular base. I would suggest to look for a suitable replacement. When you find a good one, you can post its link here. I will then update my mod.

Thanks for the new version! Unfortunately, I have to report a new issue on Codeberg.org. When opening a website there (here in Mypal 68.14.1b using single-process mode), the following message is displayed at the top of the site: JavaScript error: e.contentBoxSize[0] is undefined (https://codeberg.org/assets/js/webcomponents.js?v=7.0.0-140-34a85c1536~gitea-1.22.0 @ 10:32190). Open browser console to see more details. Here is a screenshot of the browser console: And when closing the opened Codeberg site by clicking the close button, the complete browser closes immediately which means it crashes without any message. Can you confirm this?

Until now, I couldn't observe such crashes here in my Thorium testing installation.

Thanks but I already know that all. I was one of the first to be involved in testing that re-basing when @UCyborg suggested this method for Chrome360 after my observations in terms of its enormous RAM usage on my old Windows XP computer. The good is that Thorium is already well configured inherently when it comes to RAM consumption.

On my system, the 360Chrome 11.0.2031 worked really well. The version 13.5.1030 rebuild 7 worked relatively well but only when the chrome.dll was rebased. The site loading times were much worse than in version 11.0.2031. In contrast, Thorium doesn't need to be re-based by the user and consumes much less RAM than normal Chrome versions. The standard loading behaviour is an other history, unfortunately. However, this browser was never made for my old system, either. But as I already mentioned, I found a convenient way for me to let websites loading much faster. More about this soon!
