yeah firefox, your fanboy here forgot to mention the barrage of webpages opera doesnt load properly

and youd be suprised how many things it doenst load properly you dontnotice but will screw you up

i was an opera user for years until i discovered the web with firefox, will NEVER go back

If you want the lowest memory footprint, best compatability, and best performance, the clear choice is Internet Explorer. If you're on a Mac, then Safari is your best option. On Linux, Konqueror is my choice though it's a more level playing field there.

If you want features as well I would recommend Maxthon or Avant Browser.

dont listen to these idiots

opera loads faster, opens sites faster, uses less ram, uses less cpu, has mouse gestures, etc etc etc

its way better than firefox

these trolls love firefox cause its free and open source

opera opens like a second faster,sites are opened at the same speed on both,and there are mouse gestures extensions for firefox.

way better than firefox?i dont think so ;)

dont call us trollers when the only troll here is yourself

quit being retards

opera CLEARLY opens pages faster, it uses less ram, less cpu, loads faster, its gui is more responsive, its got features like mouse gestures without adding on bloated addons, it looks better, it can save your windows open as a group, it can reopen closed windows (alt z)

opera is better.

Firefox - because with the number of extensions out there it is incredibly customisable with as many or as few features as you want.

For example the gmail notifier and the sage rss reader from www.extensionsmirror.nl

tabbrowser extensions can open your last session, and open closed tabs

you can also save all the windows that are opened as a group without any extension

oh,so now we are retards instead of idiots :sleep:

at least us retards/idiots dont waste 39 USD in a browser when you can have the same thing for free :rolleyes:

Internet Explorer is faster on Windows than Firefox, but definitely not as compatible. Many sites are switching to true standards and Internet Explorer has trouble displaying real standard code that's also advanced.

I would also say Firefox is ten times better than Opera. Opera is not good at being compatible, while Firefox is. Also, Firefox definitely has a lighter, better-looking interface. Not to mention you can customize it quite a bit using CSS.

Couldn't have said it better myself. (Y) :yes:

Firefox is better, it's free and open source.

yeah.....considering Opera is at 7.54 and Firefox at 1.0PR....you really prove your point... :rolleyes:

Sure....Opera might have more feature, but it took 7 version for them to get it right, I'm not saying Opera is not good, I use both Opera and Firefox, but I have to say Firefox is better, Why?...it's easier to use, it's not very complicated, all the extension and theme available to it, and its of corse open source. I'm not saying Opera is not worth the money, I'm just saying if someday you do need to by for firefox, I'll be more willing to pay for it than opera...

Urrrrr , just for your information.

Opera --> 7.54

Firefox --> 1.0 Preview Release

I think (and hope) the message is obvious enough

EDIT: lol the same thing was posted while i'm typing up this reply :-P

:p

I have both of them on my comp, i primarily use Firefox tho.

I'm not saying Opera is bad, its rendering speed is impressive. it's the UI i don't really like, Firefox's UI is cleaner.

On the other hand, because Firefox's opensource, people can download the source and compile optimized builds (and apply pathces that can optimize the performance further), which (definitely and obviously) are faster than the official builds. Yes I have proof, I myself is an unofficial builder ;)

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
