WELL! It certainly does make FF-ESR 45.9 load faster.

I'll give it a few days to see how it works, but a quick test of a few site and this looks like a winner, then I'll kill the two disabled ad-ons.
Thank you Nili!!!!

It is not exactly the same or efficient like uBlock Origin, or Adblock but i still find productive to stops too many parasites websites.
Usually I use (Raw hosts) links mixed together:

1) (adware + malware)
2) (Unified hosts + fakenews + gambling + pr0n + social)

I'm glad that do the job well for you S11. Simply refresh every time that a new version come up by seeing (Last updated: dates)

Best regards!

Had not heard of thin tabs, just what i needed to maximise space on my 1366 x768 res laptop screen. Thanks for the tip in your scrot.

@Nili

I've restarted both uBlosk and No Google Analytics as I was getting ads coming through and have been testing with my "Network Activity Conky". But I'm keeping the host list going.

I'm going to test with the original Bunsen 'host' file as well. As you said, use a mix smile

Nili · 2017-04-26 12:57:25

Let see little action

Without editing /etc/hosts

With hosts (/edited)

The changes is visible, Many other pages are add free thanks to etc modified, and furthermore we have spared a few MB RAM.
I'm really happy using this method smile

I got almost the same ads in the "Without" test and page looks the same with the "With" test. Yea, I'm happy too. Turned off Google Analytics again since I see these:

127.0.0.1 google-analytics.com	# breaks some sites
127.0.0.1 ssl.google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 www.google-analytics.l.google.com

Hasn't broken any sites I visit yet.

ohnonot · 2017-04-27 06:42:17

fwiw, i use a combination of hostsblock, noscript and requestpolicy.
hostsblock combines a few hosts files from across the net. i use the recommended, not too agressive ones.
i very rarely need to whitelist something (didn't have to for many months now).
noscript & requestpolicy allow me to set rules for much visited sites as i visit them. a bitch in the beginning, but after a while it becomes 2nd nature.

Firefox 53's new Compact Light theme:

I like it smile

PackRat · 2017-04-28 12:29:11

^ so do I, switched over; and using thin tabs:

Steve · 2017-04-28 13:57:36

Im using thin tabs and FX Chrome theme on firefox, i like it.

Nili · 2017-05-18 05:46:32

For all yo /etc/hosts editers...
New source: Anti popads.net Is suggested.

It's a blocking popads list used in adblock, RAW here The udates are frequently as they say.

I'm not delaying putting on my list. I'll do some test laters.

I am liking Palemoon myself and I may switch to it. The hosts file method of blocking adsites is still useful indeed and blocking Google analytics helps as well.

Ads are slowing down my browsing more and more these days and need aggressive methods to block them.

Now a number of sites are detecting adblockers and either refusing access or giving option to create an account to view the content...grrrr.

If you're low on resource or old FF admirer, i believe Pale Moon will like you.

Adblock Latitude is sister of Ublock Origin that helps to block adds. It's very good addon and lighter.

We've a thread regarding Firefox/Pale Moon addons. Maybe you can find things that can works for you.

Modification of /etc/hosts I find an alternative solution for block adds.

Best regards!

Edit: corrected Adblock Latitude name.

there's no such addon on that page.
do you mean adblock latitude? are you sure it is lighter than ublock origin? or did you mean it's lighter than the original adblock plus?

I have spelled the name wrong. I was sleepy or tired.
Yes, i meant Adblock Latitude, I'm not sure it's lighter than (trustworthy uBlock Origin) but i believe it is lighter than Adblock or Adblock Plus.

Thanks for pointing out the correct name.

Website entrance im working on. Finally figuring out css, making it unified.

Im not sure what will be beyond this gate, but i have some ideas to host some books that are creative commons, out of interest and also for practice. Im going for minimal design here, so far i have designed a simple css stylesheet to what you see here. Just basics at the moment.

Thank You Iamarca smile
Yup, custom html & css startpage is faster than Vivaldi default startpage

Nili · 2017-08-24 12:49:32

Very nice startpages both Steve and Addy. Appreciate your sharing here smile

I used to use startpage too but since i have systematized all my favorite links on the bookmarks, i simple use now

about:about

Here on About About i can easily go to some browser services.

Startpages still remain cool for the majority.

ohnonot · 2017-09-29 18:34:01

after palemoon started freezing/crashing (and didn't go away after latest upgrade), i'm trying seamonkey once again... maybe this time i can make it stick...
been playing with it, trying to make it fit my habits.
first of all, userChrome.css:

/*
MOST OF THE HACKS BELOW ARE FROM HERE:
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/tweak-your-firefox-with-the-userchromecss-file/
*/
.tabs-stack vbox hbox stack { -moz-box-ordinal-group:10!important; 
}
/* Remove Stop button when there’s nothing to Stop */
#stop-button[disabled="true"] { display: none !important; 
}
 /* Remove Back button when there's nothing to go Back to */
#back-button[disabled="true"] { display: none !important; 
}
/* Remove Forward button when there's nothing to go Forward to */
#forward-button[disabled="true"] { display: none !important; 
}
/* Change Appearance of Active tab */
tab[selected="true"] {
-moz-appearance: none !important;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.4) !important;
border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.5) !important;
font-weight:bold !important;
}
/* Remove the Close Button from the Tab Bar */
.tabs-closebutton-box {
display: none !important;
}
/* Change Cursor for Links that Open in New Window */
:link[target="_blank"], :visited[target="_blank"],
:link[target="_new"],   :visited[target="_new"] {
cursor:  crosshair !important; 
}
/* Remove Web Search from Tools Menu */
menuitem[label="Search the Web"] { display: none !important; 
}
menuitem[label="Search the Web"] + menuseparator { display: none !important; 
}

there's so much you can do with userChrome.css!!!

list of addons:

All Menus Button

@ohnonot That's a great list of add-on. However with Cookies Exterminator you should double-check that it is doing what it is supposed to do (i.e. checking manually if there are cookies and LSOs is a good idea). I had bad experiences with similar add-ons as some cookies were NOT removed.

thanks martix, will do.
as you can see, the list itself was generated by an addon!

so far i'm very impressed with seamonkeys performance; snappier than palemoon i must say, and you get an equally lightweight mail client in the mix!
