My Browser Builds (Part 4)
Milkinis replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Chrome 49 became obsolete long before Firefox 52 did. many people didn't know (and still don't) of the existence of Serpent or other forks so they moved over to Win7 or newer. most mainstream web browsers are based on chromium engine so there's fewer chances to get people to stick to Firefox or alike. all this being said if Basilisk @basilisk-dev was supported on XP it could also have a larger user base as well. I have a hard time understanding why browsers with low market share figures do close the door down on us. -

it's not been removed from Serpent 52/55 that I know of. I think the actual difference is that Serpent is based on Goanna 4.8 whereas Basilisk is already on Goanna 6.0 if I have to pick a go-to Firefox fork for Win7, Librewolf would be first and then Basilisk and Palemoon with a single active process would be down on my list. Firefox could have a far bigger user base than they have these days if they didn't drop support for XP users, so good luck with your Basilisk project if @roytam1 can I also think you can as well. -

no way will I be using a single-process capable browser ever again. it's a nightmare to me. it's ok if you don't think it's safe for you but you should let the end users decide for themselves. https://msfn.org/board/topic/182876-360-extreme-explorer-modified-version/page/129/#comment-1242047 -

if Serpent is a fork and can actually run on XP I want to guess Basilisk might achieve the same goal or am I missing something ? so you will also cut Win7/8 support out once the UXP devs team decides to do so. -

I have been using the multi-process mode since it was introduced into the original FF52 you just can't imagine how sluggish and stressful firefox forks are with 1 single process but some users seems to be happy with it, maybe they don't open more than 2 tabs at a time....- 2,321 replies

all your posts in this forum are here in this thread. why don't you backport Basilisk to XP and why doesn't Basilisk support multi process mode by default ? -

this issue was solved since the release of the rebuild 7 @NotHereToPlayGames with Win7 x64 and original chrome I can have more than 100 active tabs (yes active, not only open) at a time and RAM consumption is just about 3GB... I never understood the problem around chrome RAM usage because 99% of computers shipped with W7 already had 4GB of RAM or more.- 2,321 replies

as I mentioned before I never use the main loader.exe and maybe the loader.ini is not involved on it sometimes when I launch the browser after several hours of no use it gets hooked on a blank screen (previous releases didn't have this issue) then I restart it and restore the previous session with Win7 it's even worse, it's totally unusable until I restart Windows, the mouse cursor goes into an infinite loop
