Re: Extension icons missing from menu

Got it. Thanks. What was wrong with the old way of handling the extensions? Less to do with a decision by Slimjet and more a question of going along with Chrome in the absence of a strong reason not to. Previous example of a strong reason not to: Chrome removed the warning for closing multiple tabs...

Re: youtube videos blurry

Just checked and no problem viewing YouTube (or other video sites) at high resolution.

But my set up is not yours.

My guess is a bandwidth problem, probably not browser related though it could be somehow.

Re: bad ad-block some sites

Just an observation:

In my opinion, the Slimjet native ad blocker is really not too bad, unless you're extra paranoid like me. :mrgreen:

Re: bad ad-block some sites

If they are that hot to prevent ad blockage, maybe they are up to no good?

Re: bad ad-block some sites

Not a Slimjet issue because I disabled the native ad blocker.
See sig for my exact set up.

Hope this helps.

Re: bad ad-block some sites

I recommend disabling the native ad blocker and installing AdBlock Plus.

Of course there is an arms race between the ad blockers and the anti ad blockers, but AdBlock Plus tends to stay ahead.

Re: better interface?

This is a job for a theme not a general makeover.

Re: add bookmark clean browser data

Not sure if this helps, but you can easily add it to the built in tool bar instead.

Re: Anti-fingerprinting and Privacy Options Removed in Latest Update

No reason the Slimjet devs can't put it back.

As they did with warnings about closing multiple windows, removed from Chrome but still thankfully in Slimjet.

Re: Anti-fingerprinting and Privacy Options Removed in Latest Update

High handed removal of functionality not unlike Chrome?

And no indication here ==> https://www.slimjet.com/en/whatisnew.php
Meaning they are definitely being sneaky about it.

Pressure from businesses that like to snoop?

Where do I go to download older versions?
