Now — the freeper site is 100% smooth on even the oldest of browsers. Go JimRob, you rock.

How many !!!!!s can I put on this.
I go to FR to check my net connection (besides latest news). It always loads the fastest. If not, the net is down.
Any of the new fangled browsers, all expect massive increases in memory in your box.
Even Firefox latest cant do anything for this machine. Sticking with 3.5 is version on F/F may not open all webpages, but on FR it great. The pages that won’t load are usually coded with all sorts of script for advertisements. If they don’t load, the BACK button is my friend !
The latest Brave is likely to be a memory hog.
With my other newer linux machine with 16 gig. I have Chromium with an ad blocker. Version 105.0.5195.102 (Official Build) snap (64-bit) There are websites now that refuse you access if you don’t disable your ad blocker. Good riddance.
