minus-square twistedtxb ( @twistedtxb@lemmy.ca ) linkfedilink4•9 months agoI tried Opera on a few of my devices lately and frankly I’m impressed by the responsiveness. I still can’t get rid of Firefox but I find myself moving over to Opera more and morem
minus-square zhunk ( @zhunk@beehaw.org ) linkfedilink8•9 months agoOut of curiosity, why are you trying to get rid of Firefox? I dumped Chrome to switch to Firefox a few months ago and haven’t really had any problems with it. I miss tab groups on mobile, but that’s about it.
minus-square twistedtxb ( @twistedtxb@lemmy.ca ) linkfedilink3•9 months agoFirefox doesn’t have native HEVC support. So I switched to Opera because no other browser except for Safari has that feature. Supposedly Edge has it, but couldn’t get it to work on my media server app.
minus-square gothicdecadence ( @gothicdecadence@lemm.ee ) linkfedilink2•9 months agoWhat do you use HEVC support for?
minus-square twistedtxb ( @twistedtxb@lemmy.ca ) linkfedilink3•edit-29 months agoIts a very simple low ressource video server utility that I’m using for easy access at work. Its basically a stupid low footprint plex-like local web server that uses the browser’s internal HEVC support to play and cast to my TV.
minus-square gothicdecadence ( @gothicdecadence@lemm.ee ) linkfedilink1•9 months agoOh that’s sick, what is it??
minus-square twistedtxb ( @twistedtxb@lemmy.ca ) linkfedilink2•9 months agoIts an in house utility… But I would assume something similar already exists out there
