Isn't the only difference between Plus and Edge that Edge commented out the code that allowed for the option of allowing some ads? Certainly was the only difference at the start and I made my feelings known about the authors laziness back then.
People exaggerate when they say it's so much better than ABP. Apparently not needing to toggle a single option is a massive improvement /s. People would rather go through the trouble of whining online about it and spend wasted time installing a whole different addon when a it takes 2 seconds to disable it. I prefer to stick with the official ABP and use the dev builds with Fanboy's Ultimate List to be on the bleeding edge of blocking annoyances. In other words, the fork is unnecessary IMO.carbonize wrote:Isn't the only difference between Plus and Edge that Edge commented out the code that allowed for the option of allowing some ads?

Whoa. I had no idea Imagus had been ported to browsers other than Opera.Userfriendly wrote: Imagus: http://tiny.cc/Imagus or https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/imagus/
I strongly suspect userscripts because they probably see more scrutiny than add-ons and therefore probably have seen more optimizations, but I haven't tested this.billon wrote:what's more memory-friendly, addons or userscripts?
About a year ago I was really stumbling over Firefox as it just seemed to hesitate at every opportunity but that's mostly cleared up. Additionally, the plugins/add-ons we're talking about can sometimes slow down Firefox. Try running it in "safe" mode or pull down a new portable version and see if you're still getting that. You can run it alongside your existing installation with two methods:carbonize wrote:Anyone else finding that Firefox is a bit sluggish these days and nowhere near as fluid as it used to be?
