I also tried IceDove months ago but MailNews is unbeatable in Windows XP and ideal for me, so to speak. It works with all my email services, can be wonderfully customised with extensions and supports OAuth 2.0. I can highly recommend it. And thanks again to @roytam1 for this port!

mina7601 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 (edited) Though, I still find it strange that I had to use Normal password authenication method (and not OAuth2) to successfully connect my Gmail account to MailNews, but it works nonetheless. And yes, since I am a fan of old software, I agree with @modnar: MailNews is for me and a very awesome piece of email client. I even customized it with the help of this amazing guide by @InterLinked: https://w2k.phreaknet.org/mail/ IceDove is really good too, but I use MailNews so often.

The suspect commit has been now reverted: Revert "No issue - Allow embedded search module in HYPE_ICEDOVE project" Will probably reach next weekend's binary releases; those (few?) Icedove users can always revert to the previous release, couldn't they? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it, AFAIK this is the time takes the browser to snap out when it gets stuck running a script and from user's POV, freezes in the process. Moonchild may not believe in Speedometer, which is indeed a boring benchmark, but nevertheless, the fact remains that JavaScript engine is SLOOOOOOW.

I guess I was clutching there on to that because (you're right) its actually quite slow at times compare to Mypal; but its ok because I'm patient.

UCyborg Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I haven't updated InterLink at least since Tobin was going to ragequit. I thought Google doesn't allow mere mortals to get in with classic password auth? Maybe they made an exception for Egyptians.

Well it's manageable and I'm very used to certain extensions and font rendering. But yeah, if displaying something takes 5 seconds in Chrome, it'll take 11 seconds in Pale Moon. Though this was more extreme example, delays would still add up if you counted them. On the other hand, both Chrome and Firefox struggle with 4K videos on my end, Pale Moon plays them like a boss. At least if you don't try them after longer session. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I did notice that NM28 does a nice job rendering in comparison and I keep sessions short. Always do anyway and I use Ccleaner. user_pref("browser.sessionhistory.max_entries", 3); user_pref("browser.sessionstore.interval", 30000); user_pref("browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo", 3); user_pref("browser.sessionstore.privacy_level", 2); user_pref("browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash", false); user_pref("browser.sessionstore.upgradeBackup.maxUpgradeBackups", 0); Edited January 9 by XPerceniol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modnar Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I'm curious - why does site mimovrste.com /owned by alegro.cz/ load items so slowly in Serpent 52.9? I don't really need the site anymore, just curious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luweitest Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Serpent 52 encountered blank page today with patents.google.com. Since I had visited the site recently, maybe Google changed something. The error console gives: Warning: unreachable code after return statement Source File: https://www.gstatic.com/patent-search/frontend/patent-search.search_20231215_RC01/scs/compiled_dir/search-app-vulcanized.js Line: 21363, Column: 8 Source Code: return $jscomp$generator$context$m1628565157$0.jumpTo(0); Hope it helps debugging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCyborg Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 https://www.mimovrste.com/ is practically unusable on my phone. Manageable in Pale Moon on PC with some freezes there and there, better with Edge and the like, the site needs horsepower. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be accessed in New Moon 28 on my underpowered Windows XP computer, but why bother? Such crappy sites are food for my tablet Edited January 9 by AstroSkipper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
