Waterfox installs in its own folder and is separate. So I tried it in Firefox and it worked fine. But I was in Facebook and clicking on some posted thumbnail photos and they weren't expanding to their full size. Whoever put together the uninstaller for this needs his head banging against a wall for an hour or so. Guess with these bugs and they have yet been addressed its time to go back to Firefox until these are resolved. Seriously I'm not sure why that is not worked on more version 13 - 15 is a huge disappointment as far as multimedia goes. basically you have to run 32 bit Firefox to enjoy most of the common Web Codec Multimedia formats. It's terrible and sad at the lack of work done here where its needed to make Waterfox viable. So if you get funny characters that's the fix to resolve it which really is sad considering those are suppose to be speed optimizations so it's kinda useless to have them if you cant use them.Ĭodec Support is terrible, Divx, Xvid, and Media Player Codec for Firefox will not work with this version. Also it freaks out with Gmail and some other sites found out you have to go into the about:config and turn off the .v2 to false as well as the .v3 to also be set to false. Waterfox 64 has issues with Supporting Divx, Xvid, and Quicktime playbacks. Waterfox did solve (not totally but pretty close) the performance issues that i've been having with firefox and it's as costumizable as the later. It really baffles my mind how does chromium and other engines want to be taken serious with only 4 basic buttons on it's toolbar - it's an insult to any user. So i started to test every other browser i could get my hands on for a week or so ago and it just confirmed that i can't work properly with a browser that, for instance, doesn't let me, fully, natively, and in a simple way, costumize the toolbars. Anyway, i've been having problems with very slow or irresponsive firefox. I've been using mozilla/firefox since its inception. Pros: - as good as firefox, with better performance.Ĭons: - still some performance issues in my own setup (it may have to do with the gecko engine, not waterfox's fault).īottom Line: In my own experience and needs of productivity, Firefox's costumization options and overall layout far exceeds its lack of performance in comparison to other browsers.
