turns out there's 3 kinds of browsers:
- google chrome β†’ just. don't use this. there's so much bullshit ingrained into it, it's impossible to get rid of all of it. also... google.
- firefox β†’ use librewolf
- webkit (including browsers that use gtk's webkit plugin) β†’ chrome without the "chrome". should be good right? wrong. font rendering madness making everything look blurry

i tried compiling pale moon and--nope! gave up there
tried helium. i don't like the super thin tab bar. i like the compact mode, reminds me of firefox onebar
HOW THE FUCK DOES IT LOAD PAGES FASTER THAN LIBREWOLF

because firefox is just slow compared to chromium and it’s the sad reality :(

@pastthepixels @Houl can't find any references to that...? maybe i'm not looking somewhere but like. i have never encountered anything related to gemini in Helium (been using Helium for a few months), and searching the settings doesn't turn up anything
