    Here is Stylem in NM27 and NM28. Style edits "color-code" better in NM27.

    I do have the offmainthread active but do not have hardware acceleration active. I recall that I enabled offmainthread from a "fps" comparison and don't recall hardware acceleration making any difference so kept disabled. But, apples to apples, I also do NOT enable hardware acceleration in Chromium either. I'll do another side-by-side comparison later in the day as far as YouTube on NM27 vs NM28 vs Chromium v49. The last time I did the comparison Chromium v49 "won" *easily*. But I didn't try any YouTube addons in NM at the time. I actually HIGHLY prefer NM27 over NM28. One reason is the way that Stylem works in NM27 vs NM28.

    I am aware. My web browser is used as a "portable" browser and is used across several computers. While I cannot remember "why" exactly, I prefer hardware acceleration disabled.

    "Here we go again", as the saying goes. I am not a "fan" of these types of questions - the reality is that NOBODY can answer this question but YOU. But, having said that, I admit that I also asked the same question when I was "new". I have ran everything from GreenBrowser to Iron to Maxthon to Sleipnir to SlimBrowser to Chromium to Chrome to Firefox to Opera to Waterfox to Vivaldi to Comodo Dragon to QupZilla to Falkon to SeaMonkey to Pale Moon to MyPal to BNavigator to New Moon to ArcticFox and another good dozen or so I just cannot remember at the moment. I also consider myself a bit of a "tweaker". I take CPU temperature, processor percentage, and RAM usage into account (I've attached a YouTube test for reference, "mileage my vary"). It's not "all about" whether YouTube will play or not. My computer-room computer NEVER plays YouTube - it's for paying bills, tracking finances, reading news, et cetera - it runs New Moon v27 and nothing more. My living-room laptop (below screencap) does play YouTube and sends it to the Big Screen TV - it runs Chromium v49 and none of Roy Tam builds has dethroned Chromium v49 for "my" YouTube needs.

    I feel like a kid on Christmas morning! I tested PM v27.6 from October 2017 over the weekend and all 11 of my usually-problematic sites now WORK. Them not working was the only reason I ever "upgraded" to v28. A kid in a Candy Store! I've never been a fan of "feature creep" and I don't like (or need) all of the "features" that have crept into Pale Moon since the days of 27.6. Truly Ecstatic!

    i read them also. BUT i look for ONE key word - "typo". it wasn't until a "typo" was fixed in v27 correcting an issue dating back to 'at least' 2018 that i *finally* was able to upgrade from 28.1.0a1 2018-09-21. i never really liked v28 (manage styles in Stylem don't color-code properly) but was kinda "forced" to use it due to a couple of bank account sites. i wasn't able to upgrade back to v27 until a "typo" causing about:permissions to not work correctly was fixed. so now i'm using a version from last month where that about:permissions typo was finally fixed. a small portion of about:permissions is STILL broken - but it's fixed enough to at least return to v27 as my default-for-all. do not know when the bank account sites started working again in v27 because i waited for the about:permissions page to be fixed before reverting back to it.

    bump... to prevent from being forgotten...

    Ah, thanks. I would like to learn how to compile but every instruction guide I've tried was OUTDATED and no longer works. A how-to-compile thread would be nice
  9. NotHereToPlayGames
    Could you explain what this means? Is this a v28-only build preference or does this effect recent v27 builds also (ie, the week or two that Roytam had computer issues)? My default is v27 dated 9-12-20.

    Bite your tongue, mister. I would personally PREFER my web browser to be called "Browser".
  12. NotHereToPlayGames
    That worked perfectly and was just what I needed, many thanks. I did not know about Classic Add-Ons Archive.
  13. NotHereToPlayGames
    do I need to edit the xpi file to get it to install?
  14. NotHereToPlayGames
    Can not use that with v27. WebExtension error.
  15. NotHereToPlayGames
    Does anyone have any addon suggestions for NM v27 where I can redirect pages? One of my banking sites has an "offer" page that I would like to redirect "around".
  16. NotHereToPlayGames
    I would actually prefer a month-or-two release schedule as opposed to weekly. I like how MyPal only releases "milestone" versions as opposed to weekly.
  17. NotHereToPlayGames
    What do you mean when you say "YouTube doesn't work" or that "Google is trying to kill" v27 ??? I didn't have to do ANYTHING and YouTube works for me right out of the box. I don't have a "sign in" for YouTube but videos play and at about 15-degrees cooler than my other browsers.

    v27 - about:permissions Receive Push Notifications & Hide the Mouse Pointer options still do not work I hope it's not another year before this bug is fixed Other than that, at least the rest of about:permissions finally works and I've been able to revert to v27 as my do-all-default.
  19. NotHereToPlayGames
    bump... (to remain on current thread page...)
  20. NotHereToPlayGames
    v27 - about:permissions Receive Push Notifications & Hide the Mouse Pointer options do not work I would also argue that Receive Push Notifications functionality should be removed completely - those are for MOBILE browsers and v27 should not be considered a mobile browser.

    AGREED HIGHLY ON THAT !!! My default-for-everything version of v28 is dated 2018. Too much "feature creep" on anything newer, IMHO. I've been watching v27 and it may dethrone my v28 eventually - but for now my default is v28 from 2018.

    I wouldn't go that far. I am banned from the Pale Moon Forum because I made the innocent mistake of screen-capping a Roy Tam build to illustrate an about:config setting I was discussing. That was close to two years ago and I'm still banned. He got hostile with me so I got "defensive" - then I was banned -- permanently. I don't mind if he's allowed back at MSFN. BUT it is my sincere view that he can NOT be allowed to post in threads DEDICATED to XP !!! I run XP for a REASON. I own legit copies of 98, 98SE, 2000, ME, NT, XP, 2003, 7 Pro, 7 Enterprise, 10 Anniversary, and 10 LTSB. But I run XP for a REASON. I consider myself a "tweaker" and an "optimiser". I can do tasks in XP at 45-degrees Celsius that 7 and 10 runs up the CPU to over 80 and at 2 to 3 times the RAM. Again, I run XP for a REASON. And I am SOOO very thankful that we have forums DEDICATED to XP.

    I for one do have to laugh at a now-banned dude soap-boxing about running outdated operating systems when the guy took the time to update his profile picture but yet that updated profile still lists him as using an outdated operating system. Windows 7 expired seven months ago. But I digress. LONG LIVE XP and to this forum for keeping XP alive !!!

    v27 Permissions Manager still does not work. I'm not talking about MENU -> Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions. I'm talking about MENU -> Tools -> Permissions and the Permissions Manager that is then displayed. The Permissions Manager hasn't worked in over a year. The Plugins section doesn't fill in, you can change a dropdown setting but it does not save or even go into effect for the current session, et cetera.
