If you're seeking "best performing", then you will NOT want to update each ane every week just because a "new" release is release each and every week. I personally find that the 2018 versions of roytam's offerings are way WAY faster then anything new! BUT then you run into compatibility issues on the "modern web". This is NOT Google's fault! They do NOT come up with javascript functions, they just do better at "compliance" to web standards !!! !!! !!! These days, if you really really "must" use 'these browsers', then you also MUST come to the understanding that they will NOT be able to do "everything" on the internet. So you will become like most of us here - a DOZEN web browsers installed on your computer - one for this, one for that, another for those, still another for these. 1

AstroSkipper Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) Hello @roytam1! Even though there are members here who don't appreciate weekly updates of your browsers, I would like to thank you for your regular browser releases, the time you spend on them and your enthusiasm. You maintain so many projects with an incredible continuity that is quite impressive. New Moon 28 and Serpent are my main browsers in Windows XP. And they even work with YouTube on older computers, where 360Chrome is a total failure. Many thanks for that! Edited February 2, 2023 by AstroSkipper 7
shelby Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 I hope he will update retrozilla in near future

That's pretty recent for browsers targeting such old operating systems like Win 95+, isn't it? Edited February 2, 2023 by AstroSkipper 2

I "appreciate" the weekly updates even if I don't update every week. I do download every week, update in a VirtualBox, and decide for myself if the host OS also requires the update. 4

That's not out of context. Did I mention you? If you think that this does not apply to you, then you should not feel addressed. You are not the only member of this forum. People who refer everything to themselves have a problem, of course. 2

Google do come up with new JS drafts and are very swift to implement them into their own browser monopoly ...

That leaves ALL the rest browser choices (not-Chromium/not-Firefox) lagging behind in Web Compatibility... I fully agree with that! I am additionally an Android user since 2014, and so unfortunately I am a slave under Google's rule. I keep trying to free myself as much as I can, but it is almost impossible to do so completely. Unfortunately, all my browsers on Android are based on Chromium. There are simply no alternative browser engines. Edited February 2, 2023 by AstroSkipper Update of content 3
UCyborg Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 Someone mentioned webcompat.com, f****** WORTHLESS unless you spot an issue in Chrome, Chrome, or Chrome. I even linked well-written technical explanation by Moonchild... https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/117488 5
