I was just wondering whether you would be interested to adopt this into your portable portfolio? I'm not a developer but not opposed to generate my own portable version with the means that I have, but maybe it would attract some more users. It runs smoothly and even after days and days of usage (with two dozen open tabs) a lot faster with a lot less RAM-usage (a constant 1.3 to 1.5 GB, whereas Firefox climbed up to 2.2 GB) than Firefox. I'm using version 9 that I made portable myself by copying the program-folder inside one from your portable Firefox installation. PROS Light on System Resources () Compatible with most Firefox Extensions () 'No telemetry' and 'Limited Data Collection' ( this could change, given the first con below) CONS Bought by analytics/adverising company, System1, which is the same company that bought search engine StartPage. I stopped using Waterfox after LibreWolf came out. I had tried it at that time, And I was keeping an eye on the development since then. However, I recently stumbled upon Waterfox ( ), that has since even been accepted by Mozilla. Waterfox adopted Firefox as its platform, optimized it for the 64-bit Windows environment, and released it in the spring of 2011, attracting a great deal of attention. It advertises support for traditional XUL Firefox extensions and NPAPI plug-ins like Java and Silverlight. Unfortunately there are only nightly builds from Mozilla themselves with 64-bit support, but it will most likely never reach the end user (unless you agree to be an eternal alpha-tester). However, Mozilla Firefox is now a 64-bit browser on 64-bit versions of Windows, so that’s not a reason to use Waterfox anymore.

I searched the whole site for this app that I'm requesting now, but couldn't find any information.įirefox still is the most versatile browser, but the more intense usage you put into it, the more you will cripple it's performance. Waterfox in 2023 by cost, reviews, features, integrations, deployment, target market, support options, trial offers, training options, years in business, region, and more using the chart below. And foremost thank you for the great effort you put into PortableApps! I'm very proud to say I stuck with you long before my friends (who also keep switching to portable applications) or all the magazines around the world who are referring to you now.
