Which browser is better for weak computers - modern Mozilla Firefox or a project based on its old Pale Moon engine. Which browser to choose for a weak computer

Good day, friends! Sorry that there have been no updates on the blog for a long time, I promise to improve and delight you with articles more often. Today I have prepared for you ranking of the best browsers of 2018 for Windows 10. I use this operating system, so I will focus on it, but there will not be much difference for users of previous versions of Windows.

On the eve of last year I did. Now the situation has changed a little, which I will tell you about in this article. I will be glad to see your comments and remarks. Go!

Best browsers 2018: ranking for Windows

I don't think it will come as a surprise to anyone if I say that more than 90% of the population uses the Windows operating system on their computers. The most popular version remains, which is understandable due to the huge list of advantages (but more on that in another article). I literally switched to it a couple of months ago and therefore this article will be especially relevant for Tens users.

1st place - Google Chrome

Google Chrome is once again the leader among browsers. It is quite powerful and efficient, just ideal for owners of modern computers. According to open LiveInternet statistics, you can see that almost 56% of users prefer Chrome. And the number of his fans is growing every month:

Share of Google Chrome usage among users

I don't know what you think, but I think almost 108 million visitors can't be wrong! Now let’s look at the advantages of Chrome and reveal the secret of its truly wild popularity.

Tip: always download programs only from the manufacturer’s official website!

Advantages of Google Chrome

Speed. This is perhaps the main reason why users give their preference to it. I found an interesting speed test of different browsers. Well done guys, they did quite a lot of work, but the results are quite expected: Google Chrome is the leader in speed among its competitors. In addition, Chrome has the ability to preload the page, thereby making the work speed even faster.
Convenience. The interface is thought out to the smallest detail. There is nothing superfluous, the principle is implemented: “open and work”. Chrome was one of the first to implement the ability to quickly access. The address bar works in conjunction with the search engine selected in the settings, which saves the user a few more seconds.
Stability. In my memory, only a couple of times Chrome stopped working and reported a failure, and even then the cause was viruses on the computer. This reliability of operation is ensured by the separation of processes: if one of them is stopped, the others are still running.
Safety. Google Chome has its own regularly updated database of malicious resources, and the browser also requires additional confirmation to download executable files.
Incognito mode. This is especially true for those who do not want to leave traces of visiting certain sites, and have no time to clear their history and cookies.
Task Manager. A very convenient feature that I use regularly. It can be found in the More Tools menu. Using such a tool, you can track which tab or extension requires a lot of resources and complete the process to get rid of the “brakes”.

Extensions. There are a huge number of different free plugins, extensions and themes for Google Chrome. Accordingly, you can literally make your own browser build that will meet exactly your needs. A list of available extensions can be found at this link.

Built-in page translator. An extremely useful function for those who like to surf the Internet in a foreign language, but do not know foreign languages at all. Translation of pages is carried out automatically using Google Translator.
Regular updates. Google carefully monitors the quality of its products, so the browser updates automatically and you won’t even notice it (unlike updates in Firefox, for example).
Okay Google. Google Chrome has a voice search feature.
Synchronization. Let’s say you decide to reinstall Windows or buy a new computer, but you’ve already forgotten half of your passwords. Google Chrome gives you the opportunity to not think about it at all: when you sign in, all your settings and passwords will be imported to your new device.
Ad blocking. I wrote a separate article about this.

Disadvantages of Google Chrome

But everything can’t be so rosy and wonderful, you ask? Of course, there is also a “fly in the ointment”. The main disadvantage of Google Chrome can be called it "weight". If you have an old computer with very modest performance resources, it is better to stop using Chrome and consider other browser options. The minimum amount of RAM for Chrome to work correctly should be 2 GB. There are other negative features of this browser, but the average user is unlikely to be interested in them.

2nd place - Opera

One of the oldest browsers, which has recently begun to revive. The heyday of its popularity was in times of limited and slow Internet (remember Opera Mini on Simbian devices?). But even now Opera has its own “trick” that none of its competitors have. But we will talk about this below.

Advantages of Opera

Speed. There is a magical function of Opera Turbo that can significantly increase the loading speed of sites. In addition, Opera is perfectly optimized for working on slow computers with weak technical characteristics, thus becoming an excellent alternative to Google Chrome.
Saving. Very relevant for Internet owners with restrictions on traffic volume. Opera not only increases page loading speed, but also significantly reduces the amount of traffic received and transmitted.
Information content. Opera may warn you that the site you want to visit is unsafe. Various icons will help you understand what is happening and what the browser is currently using:

Express bookmarks bar. Not an innovation, of course, but still a very convenient feature of this browser. There are also hot keys for instant access to browser control directly from the keyboard.
Built-in ad blocking. In other browsers, blocking endless ad blocks and intrusive pop-ups is implemented using third-party plugins. Opera developers took this into account and built ad blocking into the browser itself. At the same time, the speed of work increases by 3 times! If necessary, this feature can be disabled in the settings.
Power Saving Mode. Opera allows you to save up to 50% of the battery power of your tablet or laptop.

Built-in VPN . In the era of the Yarovaya Law and the heyday of Roskomnadzor, there is nothing better than a browser with a free built-in VPN server. With its help, you can easily access prohibited sites, or you can watch films that are blocked in your country at the request of the copyright holder. It is because of this incredibly useful feature that I use Opera all the time.
Extensions. Like Google Chrome, Opera boasts a large number (more than 1000+) of different extensions and themes.

Disadvantages of Opera

Safety. According to the results of some tests and studies, the Opera browser is not safe; it often does not see a potentially dangerous site and does not save you from scammers. Therefore, you use it at your own risk.
May not work on older computers, high system requirements.

3rd place - Mozilla Firefox

A rather strange, but still popular choice for many users is the Mozilla Firefox browser (known as “Fox”). In Russia, it is in third place in popularity among PC browsers. I won’t judge anyone’s choice; I myself used it for quite a long time until I switched to Google Chrome.

Any product has its fans and haters, Firefox is no exception. Objectively, it certainly has its merits, I will consider them in more detail.

Advantages of Mozilla Firefox

Speed. Quite a controversial indicator for the Fox. This browser is quite fast until you install a few plugins. After this, your desire to use Firefox will disappear for a certain period of time.
Side panel. Many fans note that the sidebar (quick access Ctrl+B) is an incredibly convenient thing. Almost instant access to bookmarks with the ability to edit them.
Fine tuning. The ability to make the browser absolutely unique, to “tailor” it to your needs. Access to them is about:config in the address bar.
Extensions. A huge number of different plugins and add-ons. But, as I already wrote above, the more of them are installed, the more the browser slows down.

Firefox Disadvantages

Tor-mo-za . This is exactly why a huge number of users abandoned using Fox and preferred any other browser (most often Google Chrome). It slows down terribly, to the point where I had to wait for a new empty tab to open.

4th place - Yandex.Browser

A fairly young and modern browser from the Russian search engine Yandex. In February 2017, this browser for PC took second place in popularity after Chrome. Personally, I use it very rarely; it’s difficult for me to trust a program that is trying to deceive me at any cost and almost force me to install itself on my computer. Plus, sometimes it replaces other browsers when downloading from non-official sites.

Nevertheless, this is a completely worthy product, trusted by 8% of users (according to LiveInternet statistics). And according to Wikipedia - 21% of users. Let's look at the main advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of Yandex.Browser

Close integration with other Yandex products. If you regularly use Yandex.Mail or, then Yandex.Browser will be a real godsend for you. You will essentially get a complete analogue of Google Chrome, only ideally tailored for another search engine - the Russian Yandex.
Turbo mode. Like many other Russian developers, Yandex likes to sneak ideas from its competitors. I wrote about the magical function of Opera Turbo above, it’s essentially the same here, I won’t repeat it.
Yandex.Zen. Your personal recommendations: various articles, news, reviews, videos and much more right on the start page. We opened a new tab and... woke up 2 hours later :) In principle, the same thing is available with the Visual Bookmarks extension from Yandex for other browsers.

Synchronization. There is nothing surprising about this function - when you reinstall Windows, all your settings and bookmarks will be saved in the browser.
Smart line. A really useful tool is answering questions directly in the search bar, without having to go to the search results and search on other pages.

Safety. Yandex has its own technology - Protect, which warns the user about visiting a potentially dangerous resource. Protect includes several independent protection modes against various network threats: encryption of data transmitted over WiFi, password protection and anti-virus technologies.
Customizing the appearance. Choose from a huge number of ready-made backgrounds or the ability to upload your own picture.
Quick Mouse Gestures. Managing the browser has become even easier: just hold down the right mouse button and perform a specific action to obtain the desired operation:

Yandex.Tableau. It is also a very convenient tool - on the start page there will be 20 bookmarks of the sites you most visit. The tile panel for these sites can be customized as you wish.

As you can see, this is a truly complete modern tool for browsing web pages. I think that its share in the browser market will constantly grow, and the product itself will continue to develop.

Disadvantages of Yandex Browser

Obsessiveness. No matter what program I try to install, no matter what service I access, there it is: Yandex.Browser. He follows right on his heels and whines: “Set me up.” Constantly wants to change the start page. And he wants a lot more. He looks like my wife :) At some point it starts to infuriate.
Speed. Many users complain about the speed of opening new tabs, which even eclipses the infamous glory of Mozilla Firefox. This is especially true for weak computers.
No flexible settings. Unlike Google Chrome or Opera, Yandex.Browser does not have wide adaptation capabilities to suit your own individual needs.

5th place - Microsoft Edge

The youngest modern browser, was launched by Microsoft in March 2015. This browser replaced Internet Explorer, which was hated by many (which is quite strange, since according to statistics, IE is the safest browser!). I started using Edge from the moment I installed Ten, that is, quite recently, but I already had my own idea about it.

Microsoft Edge has rapidly burst into the browser market and its share is growing every day

Advantages of Microsoft Edge

Full integration with Windows 10. This is perhaps Edge's strongest trait. It runs as a full-fledged application and uses all the capabilities of the most modern operating system.
Safety. Edge has taken over from its “big brother” IE the strongest features, including safe web surfing.
Speed. In terms of speed, I can put it in third place after Google Chrome and Opera, but its performance is still very good. The browser is not annoying, pages open quickly and load in a couple of seconds.
Reading mode. I most often use this function on mobile devices, but perhaps someone will find it useful in the PC version.
Cortana voice assistant. To be honest, I haven’t used it yet, but rumor has it that it’s significantly inferior to “Okay Google” and Siri.
Notes. Microsoft Edge includes handwriting and note-taking functionality. Interesting thing, I must tell you. Here's what it looks like in reality:

Create a note in Microsoft Edge. Step 1.

Create a note in Microsoft Edge. Step 2.

Disadvantages of Microsoft Edge

Windows 10 only. This browser is available only to owners of the latest version of the Windows operating system - “tens”.
Sometimes it's dull. For me it happens like this: you enter the page URL (or make a transition), a tab opens and the user sees a white screen until the page is completely loaded. Personally, this bothers me.
Incorrect display. The browser is quite new and some old sites “float” in it.
Poor context menu. It looks like this:

Lack of personalization. Unlike other browsers, Edge will be difficult to customize for specific needs and tasks.

What browser do you use? I'm waiting for your options in the comments. If you have any questions, ask, I will answer as best I can!

Long page loading times always irritate users, who subsequently begin to suffer from Internet speed problems. Although the reason may be a weak computer on which a heavy browser with many extensions is installed. Install the Pale Moon browser and reduce page loading time by a quarter.

The Pale Moon browser works quickly on weak computers

Initially, the popular Mozilla browser was developed for the Linux platform and was later edited for use in the Windows environment. In this regard, many users claim that it can slow down and take a long time to open pages. Enthusiasts approached this issue with complete seriousness and decided to develop a completely new Pale Moon browser for Windows OS users (there are also distributions for Linux OS), developed based on Firefox, the source code of which is publicly available.

“Pale Moon” is distributed absolutely free of charge and without built-in extensions. The lack of extensions has a positive effect on the speed of the browser, but creates certain difficulties for the user: for example, in order to watch any video using this program, you must install Flash Player yourself.

The original version of the Pale Moon distribution does not provide installation in Russian and the entire interface is in English. Although, using the downloaded archive and language modules of the program, you can perform Russification.

To summarize, we can note both the positive aspects of Pale Moon and the negative ones.

The positive aspects include:

Free to use.
A significant increase in the speed of opening pages (this is especially noticeable on low-power computers).
Open source code (allows programmers to independently make modifications for themselves).
If you have an account in Firefox, all bookmarks and saved passwords can be transferred to this program for viewing web pages.

The negative aspects include:

Lack of Russian-language interface in the official version.
Plugins that 99% of 100% are needed by the user to one degree or another (for example, Flash Player) are not installed.
Many complain about the rather complex architecture and difficulties in personal settings.

The user’s decision to use “Pale Moon” must be made independently, taking into account all the listed capabilities and disadvantages.

Hello everyone It seemed to me that I was well versed in hardware and software. Well, maybe it’s not that great, but it’s enough to advise you on how to solve this or that problem related to software or hardware. So. But if six months ago someone asked me what the fastest browser in the world is, I would have answered Mozilla. And I would be right, because if you don’t delve into the topic of browsers, then it seems like Mozilla is the one that loads a website page the fastest.

But I was wrong... And it all happened when I bought a board with a soldered Atom 330 processor on the cheap - small and remote. It has two cores, but there is Hyper-threading technology, that is, there are threads, resulting in 4 threads, and in Windows this is shown as 4 cores. Well, I thought, this is great, but I was a little upset when I realized that the performance was certainly not enough. Well, what should you expect from a mobile processor?

So. I started thinking about how I could make the pages load faster in the browser. And then I installed Mozilla, but alas, it was too heavy for the Atom processor. Well then I installed Chrome. And fortunately there was enough memory (4 gigs), then Chrome worked somehow. I loaded even heavy sites, even if I had to wait a little. But I thought again, is it possible to find some kind of browser that will be like a rocket. And you won't believe it, I found it, it's called Pale Moon!

Pale Moon is a browser developed on the basis of Mozilla, which is somehow very cleverly optimized for both conventional processors and Atoms. I installed it and I was shocked - many pages actually loaded much faster, the interface is nice, it doesn’t load anything and it eats up a little RAM.

There is a version for both 32-bit Windows and 64. Both XP and Windows 10 are supported. You can download from the official website, or write in the Pale Moon search engine and the official website should be in the first position:

There you download the version for your Windows. It installs without any glitches, during installation it is not suggested to install either Yandex-soft or Mail-soft, this is already good

When you first launch it, you will be prompted to import settings from some other browser:

The last point here is to give up imports.

Also during installation you will be asked to leave the Pale Moon home page or import it from Internet Explorer:

Well, that’s all, then the browser will install and you can try what kind of Pale Moon browser it is. It seems to be translated as Pale Moon.. But I could be wrong

So, after launching the browser, you will have an unpleasant jamb. Well, maybe it doesn’t matter to some, but there is no Russian language in the browser. But don’t worry, I’ll show you how to implement it there!

This is what Pale Moon looks like:

As you can see, in a word, it looks good and comfortable

Let me tell you right away that all these unnecessary buttons, the search bar (well, the one on the side of the address bar), all these bookmarks - all this can be removed and you can customize the browser for yourself.

Now about the Russian language. Let's go to this site:

palemoon.org/langpacks.shtml

Then down there we look for something like ru.xpi - this is the Russian language for the browser, look, here it is:

Click on ru.xpi and there will be a window like this, then click Install Now:

Then you should see the following message, saying that the language is installed normally and there are no jambs:

Almost everything, now all that remains is to activate the Russian language. See how to do it, first go to this address:

In the next message, click the I promise to be careful button:

Now look what you are doing, paste this:

general.useragent.locale

In the Search field and press enter:

There you should see the line general.useragent.locale, this line is a parameter that specifies the browser language. Here it now says en-US, but we need to change it to Russian! To do this, double-click on this line, the following window will appear:

And here you change en-US to ru-RU so that it becomes like this:

Click OK in this window and that’s it, now you can press F5 for the test, if it says that there are dragons here, then you did everything correctly:

Now, for the browser to be completely in Russian, you need to close it and start it, that is, restart it

Well, that’s it, so I opened the menu and everything is in Russian:

So there is nothing complicated here. Well, without leaving the checkout, I will also show you how to install a Russian spelling dictionary in Pale Moon!

To be honest, I either don’t remember or there is simply no setting where you can add a dictionary. Therefore, I propose to do this: open any page where there is a text field, for example, I opened the Yandex search engine. And right-click on the text field and check the Spell Check box:

After that, right-click again and there will already be a Languages menu, and inside it the Add dictionaries item:

Then a tab will open, by the way Mozilla, and there you need to find Russian and click on Install dictionary. I immediately advise you to hold down Ctrl + F and enter Russian into the search, so you will find it faster:

I advise you to install the larger dictionary. Well, there are probably more words, which means a better check, well, in general, I chose the one with more...

Then you will need to click on Add to Firefox:

And then there will be a message saying there are no jambs, everything is installed fine:

After this, you will need to check the Spell Check box again, and then Russian will be selected automatically:

Well, you see how it all turned out. I wanted to tell you about Pale Moon, but in the end I told you how to put the Russian language into it and how to add a Russian dictionary for spell checking. Well, how could it be otherwise, this is the first thing you need to do to make the browser more or less comfortable to use.

By the way, here’s the settings window (you can get to it by clicking on the Pale Moon menu button in the upper left corner and selecting the item there):

That is, you see it as if it were Mozilla, but not quite modern. That's right. Pale Moon is not made on the latest version, but, so to speak, on the one that is still modern. In general, it supports everything, YouTube and all sites, flash and video, in general, everything works there. It’s just that the version of Mozilla, as a base, is not the most recent, but simply fresh.

I don’t know whether you will like this browser or not, but in general I don’t see any strong reasons why you might NOT like it. Here are the advantages I see in it:

Well, it looks like I wrote everything I had to! I strongly advise you to try this browser and understand that I’m not making it up, it’s really very fast and even somewhat reminiscent of Opera 12. And this, well, I’ve never seen such a browser, for me, this is the best that can be from browsers Today.

The top rankings in terms of functionality, security and speed are occupied by Yandex.Browser, Google Chrome, Opera and Mozilla Firefox. Only you can tell which browser you choose, so let's take a quick look at the features of each browser again.

If we talk about the simplicity of the interface and innovation in total, Yandex Browser will win. The developers have proven that it is possible to create a product that is equally respected by both “dummies” and professionals without strict restrictions for users. The browser is cross-platform, fast, stable, synchronized with Google and Yandex services equally. In fact, it combines the best features of its competitors with two significant additions: a unique search bar with suggestions and a functional bookmark bar codenamed "scoreboard". Recommended for download if you are tired of template solutions and glitches. In addition, this secure browser on a Windows computer is memory-friendly. Other Internet browsers are much more demanding on the resources of computers and laptops.

Orbitum is considered a relatively young web browser that can compete with any well-known browser, both in terms of performance when working with Internet resources, and in terms of the number of available settings and tools. Its main feature is an interactive chat that allows you to be on any page and at the same time correspond with friends from social networks. networks. Try Orbitum and you will be pleased with the high speed of launching web pages, the benefits of using the built-in loader and the useful omnibox. This is a good choice of browser for your computer at home.

Not so common: Amigo and K-Meleon. The latter is a serious competitor to its progenitor Mozilla Firefox. However, while it excels in security, the K-Meleon browser loses in the frequency of updates. Amigo's close connection to social networks can be perceived as an advantage for regular visitors to VK, OK, FB and other social networks. But thanks to many extensions, plugins and minimal CPU load, the browser runs smoothly and without glitches. The program will be appreciated by all categories of users.

Unfortunately, our review did not include such products as the cross-platform Comodo iceDragon, good solutions Pale Moon and Srware Iron, the only browser with advanced anonymity - Tor browser, the once famous Netscape Navigator, Torch Browser, intended for true fans of Rambler Rambler Browser. Each of them deserves special attention, which we will definitely pay in future publications. I would also like to separately mention the good browser UC Browser. Its creators relatively recently began expanding around the world, and are constantly adding useful features to their brainchild, such as integration with video hosting sites. Already now, in the “advantages - disadvantages” competition, the balance is positive, but we doubt that UC can be called a safe browser. It is often installed on smartphones without the user's consent.

Any user of the World Wide Web knows that to surf the Internet conveniently, quickly and safely, you need an appropriate browser. But today there is so much software of this type in the world that choosing a browser is quite a difficult task. Let's look at the most famous browsers and try to figure out which one is better and faster.

General principles of browser operation

As you know, modern web browsers are quite complex systems, and the sites themselves are structures with a branched architecture. In this case, we are talking about the fact that the web browser is not only a primitive means of viewing web pages. Support for many add-ons and ActiveX controls or the Java platform makes it a universal tool for all occasions.

Now a few words about performance testing. Unfortunately, there is a misconception among many users that the lightest browser is the one that loads web pages the fastest. But you also need to take into account ease of use, settings and some other features.

Additionally, some versions of Windows OS behave completely differently. For example, Windows 7 provides a special SuperFetch technology, which allows you to fill the memory as much as possible with the most frequently visited pages. Naturally, they load much faster. However, increasing memory greatly impacts overall system performance, causing applications to run more slowly. Further garbage collection and loops increase the load on the CPU even more. It turns out that any, even the lightest browser, tries to grab the maximum possible space in memory, and cannot unload data even when shutting down.

But this is all, so to speak, an example of technical aspects, and not all of them. Let's look at the most famous browsers and new products that took part in testing in 2014.

Internet Explorer

Oddly enough, the much-unloved “oldie” Internet Explorer 11 in its updated version (build 11.0.9600.16521) showed excellent results.

It was specially designed for Windows 7 and 8. It brings improvements in page loading, optimization of pre-rendering, caching and priorities, and execution of JavaScript applications. Among other things, it was optimized for touch screens and performed very well, which cannot be said about its previous versions. Of course, Internet Explorer is a lightweight browser for Windows 7, given its maximum integration with the operating system itself. But there is no reason yet to claim that he is the best.

Opera

Everyone's favorite lightweight browser for the computer (and for the user), Opera version 21 (build 21.0.1432.57) again pleased its users, showing ease of use, configuration and page loading speed, which is what most often worries the average user.

True, many users still use older versions of the browser, and this is where a lot of problems arise. The fact is that although the name of the version says, say, NI or Stable, in reality there is no need to talk about stability and speed. Firstly, constantly popping up requests to confirm the acceptance of certificates is simply annoying. Of course, security and protection against potentially unwanted software or spyware are good, but not to the same extent. Moreover, you can get rid of this only by disabling the execution of Java scripts. But in this case, some sites will not be displayed correctly, and download links or redirections will not work at all. Secondly, when opening tabs, there is often a short-term freeze. Thirdly, if we talk about speed, the so-called Turbo connection acceleration mode is a complete fiction. So you understand.

In principle, Opera is a lightweight browser for the computer, but only if you use the latest updated version, and nothing else.

Mozilla Firefox

One of the most famous web browsers, Mozilla Firefox, in general, is also at its best, if you take one of the latest versions - 29 (build 29.0.0.5224).

The developers paid priority attention not only to page loading speed, improving the user interface and creating a smart address bar, but also to the security system. For example, the new version provides one-click verification of the authenticity of a web resource, enhanced protection against fraudulent and spyware, etc. In general, if we take light browsers for XP, Mozilla Firefox can clearly claim a leading position.

Google Chrome

But the favorite of many users, Google Chrome (build 34.0.1847.131), has clearly lost ground. At one time it was so praised that many users preferred it.

Then it was really possible to safely say that Google Chrome is the lightest browser. Today, unfortunately, the situation is clearly not in its favor, although many innovations from previous versions continue to please. Nevertheless, even at the end of 2014, this browser is almost at the very bottom of the list.

360 Safety Browser

But a newcomer to the web browser market called 360 Safety Browser from Chinese developers surprised everyone. Version 7 (build 7.0.0.143) will not leave even experienced users and experts indifferent.

Indeed, in almost all parameters it took a leading position in the test. Although it is built on top of Chromium, the browser itself uses two main engines, WebKit and Internet Explorer, which clearly improves performance. It can easily and quickly hide intrusive ads without any outside help in the form of add-ons or add-ons like AdBlock, since it has its own AdFilter tool, can filter phishing URLs, etc. The most interesting thing is that the browser has a special pop-up window for playing video, which can be placed on top of other windows. In addition, it has an integrated synchronization system with Google accounts.

Judging by the results of tests conducted by PC Security Labs in 2014, 360 Safety Browser is the lightest browser for all Windows operating systems.

Finally

Of course, each user decides for himself which browser to use in his work. And, naturally, you may not agree with the above information. But the numbers speak for themselves. In addition, we did not consider many other products such as Yandex Browser or Amigo, but limited ourselves to only the most famous ones.
