The Gguntlet of reading news on Free Republic

Those FR threads of last April provide a number of alternatives to Firefox. Those mentioned, among others, included Palemoon, lynx and Netsurf.

I don't see any logic in your thinking, but if you are against Firefox, why would you suggest Palemoon?

"Pale Moon is an Open Source, Firefox-based web browser"

As in the same Firefox you think is pure evil. So how does that logic work?

Why don't you consider that people, ideas, and organizations are different than products. And using a free product doesn't support or enable its producers.

"Pale Moon is an Open Source, Firefox-based web browser"

Thanks for that heads up. I didn't know that. Since so many loyal FReepers (many with sign up dates from the last century) had spoken highly of it back in the April threads, I had presumed it was all right. I'm now uninstalling it. I appreciate the info and you've proved that Free Republic is really the greatest! God Bless you.

I found Firefox slow and buggy and getting more so month after month. Too many cooks adding to the stew in this open source browser.

PaleMoon is been neither slow nor buggy. A smaller and tighter community of programmers focused on not repeating the mistakes / problems of FF. It handles bookmarks the same as FF though which I wish somebody would fix.
