the usual benchmarks have always shown cyberfox to be slower than firefox (at least on my machine, quad core AMD) - but I'm talking about the "feel" of it. Noticeable lag just switching tabs!!

I've been using waterfox since version 5. I was really excited...but now I'm disappointed...
Found this photo on waterfox's page on facebook...and wanted to share it with you.


I m going for nighty...good luck to the patient fellows that wait the new update.

Thanks, but Palemoon has features removed that I need to use on a regular basis.

As for Cyberfox, I've simply heard of too many issues being caused it, especially the (un)installer causing registry issues etc. that I'm not going to risk trying it unless the developer starts releasing it without an installer (e.g. in a zip file).

I'm sorry, I tried searching this thread, but I"m still new to the forum. I'm using Waterfox 16.0.1, and I've had issues that when I move my cursor up towards the right-hand corner quickly, Waterfox closes. Even if I have multiple tabs open, (and I have warn me when closing multiple tabs) there's no warning, no nothing, Waterfox just closes. And when I start it back up, all my tabs are gone.

Am I doing something wrong? Is this a problem with Windows 7 64 bits? I never had this issue with Firefox.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Waterfox has been outdated for quite some time now.

Perhaps it was an issue fixed on a later version.

Firefox (Stable, 32-bit) is now up to version 21 and the Nightly (Firefox Beta, 64-bit) is up to version 24.

Waterfox is dead.

Long live Cyberfox!

I also agree with this. I really think MrAlex should stop giving us false hopes already. I'm tired of waiting for Waterfox forever. I was a devotee for Waterfox also.

So far I switched from Waterfox v18 to Cyberfox v21 and really love it. It's just as good and I really like the new "Download button".

I don't like that stupid down-arrow, and I don't like that Pale Moon hasn't yet been reconfigured to delete the new downloading history, even though you can disable the animation and reinstate the old download window.
