Thread: Browser suggestion for Lubuntu


hi, thank great desktop , thank including in ubuntu.

start thread see default browser changed in lubuntu, have old compaq armada m300 piii 600 mhz boot lxde in (it faster default lubuntu desktop , less reasources).

because laptop low spec notice difference easy in programs wouldn,t notice compared desktop. on lappy chromium takes forever open , loger ready use, fills processor monitor @ bottom of desktop entirely , takes bit before can type in it. takes minute , half 4 minutes able surf.

epiphany takes fraction of time , lot less reasources use. epiphany uses 5 lines in processor monitor (about 1 fith) , ready go. it full featured chromeium or firefox or close enough anyway, has plugins firefox basic needs , feel way better choice default browser chromium or firefox light weight de. hate cant uninstall chromium without uninstalling lubuntu-desktop @ same time.

thing epiphany can play flash on ancient lappy , plays smooth, in chromium, got impatient open , play flash unbearable , choppy. wasn't expecting flash play @ on lappy, if can great, besides need more distractions massage therapy classes lol.

i recommend trying midori. it's pretty browser, , light. don't know how compares epiphany in resource use.
