Thank you for the advice, but no, I don't install custom fonts, otherwise the system would be compromised and prone to more extensive fingerprinting.

What I love in Chinese browsers (Cent, CatsXP), they try to already include most fonts and certificates within them, it's not the case with Supermium, unfortunately.

You must be kidding me...

Is it possible?  YES.
Have I tried?  No (I don't "do" videos on computers that cannot handle them, lol).

Try these.  I'd be interested in your findings.

I'm sure that there are others (MANY others), those are just the first two from a quick search.

Supermium should handle website permissions -media files as for any Chromium-based browser.

So just go to settings-website-permissions-media files and change the default setting (?).

Actually, no. Fingerprinting by the means of installed fonts is rather common.

But you're not wanting to block the ads ???

I know a lot of people that don't. I observed my ex-girlfriend literally ate tonnes of wedding dresses and parties ads at her insta, while she was almost sure I'm not gonna marry her, I'm still very young to settle down now, what chances did she have 5 years ago, when I was even younger? So, it was a torture for her, yet she continued to stare at those ads! Later on, when she tried Supermium, not long before we broke up due to the reasons I'm not going to disclose to respect her privacy, she was still too tolerant to the ads she saw in the browser on youtube.

Jesus, that is four tabs and one internal tab open, and it ate all my memory.

I'm not going to patronise you, just being Captain Obvious is sometimes fun, so my advice is to upgrade, Supermium will only get heavier, trust me.

I mean, seriously.

The extension works on YouTube. I see the static advertisement that I expected. I don't like the video playing by itself because it robs the CPU and often times I have already seen it. I only do simple adblock using DNS. Installing extensions and keeping them up to date is a bit daunting. They would need CPU and memory for themselves too.

What is a rebase issue? In Opium 93 each process is about 35 MB. I've not edited or compressed the Supermium binaries. Is one expected to do that? Does installing the Tamper Monekey Autoplay script cause new processes to be created? I think this is too many processes. One per tab I can accept.

Maybe this is a good reason for reddit fans of WinXP to finally upgrade to Server 2003 to have enough memory to run the browser.

I only run Supermium from inside a VirtualBox VM and my just-downloaded Supermium R6 is not displaying a rebase issue.  Your memory screencap indicates that yours is having a rebase issue.
Oh, I have no clue what Opium 93 is and could not find a download link with it being STUPIDLY named after a DRUG!  But I digress...

Your profile says that you run Server 2008 R2 but I shall detail instructions from XP.

First, we should prove that you are indeed having a rebase issue.

Download Process Hacker 2.38 (I'm fairly certain that this is the last version that will run in XP).
Setup = https://sourceforge.net/projects/processhacker/files/processhacker2/processhacker-2.38-setup.exe/download
Portable No-Install (I use this one) = https://sourceforge.net/projects/processhacker/files/processhacker2/processhacker-2.38-bin.zip/download

Note from Process Hacker -> Options -> Highlighting that relocated DLLs are highlighted.
(I cannot show a screencap, MSFN is throwing an error, don't know why, don't care why.)

Right-click on any of the chrome.exe files from within Process Hacker and select Properties.
(I cannot show a screencap, MSFN is throwing an error, don't know why, don't care why.)

In Process Hacker's Properties dialog, select Modules and see if your chrome.dll (because of its file size) is being HIGHLIGHTED as a RELOCATED DLL (note that mine is NOT highlighted because I do not have a rebase issue).
Unsure if you ARE or are NOT, but this will prove one way or the other.

You will very likely find some SMALL files that are relocated, those SMALL files do not present a memory-hog issue, it is the LARGE files (such as chrome.dll) that can present memory-hog issues.

Opium is Opera built around the Chromium engine. Lol.

They seem to be relocated. Opera is also relocated. Could this be a side-effect of 32-bit program running on 64-bit Windows? I can take a look tomorrow on my other computer with 32-bit Windows. But it has 20 GB of memory for the browser to expand like a gas.

I have Supermium 126.0.6478.256 (Official Build) (32-bit) which was the latest when I got it a few weeks ago.

Please provide a download link.  I have no interest in scrolling through dozens upon dozens of DRUG articles when trying to hunt for it!  Gotta be the STUPIDEST name for a BROWSER if you ask me!

 

Yep, you have a REBASE ISSUE.

1)  Download libase from here  --  https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1N4r41rCXQKVZ02XzZhhjM5I4a0dXkizS
2)  Close Supermium and copy its chrome.dll file into the libase -> Release folder.
3)  Open a Command Prompt window from the Release folder and execute the command libase.exe chrome.dll
4)  Copy the "rebased" chrome.dll back into your Supermium (renaming original if you wish to keep it, but make sure that this "new" chrome.dll is the one that Supermium now uses).

Launch Supermium and compare memory now that you are "rebased".
