I recently bought a cheap&small office laptop with intention of taking it with me and completing assignments in public places. Problem is, it chokes up and dies when running more than eight tabs on firefox. I also tried k-meleon, it has great performance but the UI is ancient and many websites that I need dont support it.
I have a number of tabs I use frequently, and would rather not open them through browser history every time I need them
You could also enable the option that “pauses” tabs in the background when they’re not in use, reducing RAM use at the expense of slight loading times when you revisit old tabs. Alternatively, just use bookmarks
How do I enable it on waterfox?
for Firefox v93+, set
browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemorytotrueinabout:config; it’s probably the same in sufficiently up-to-date Firefox-derived browsersCould you set these pages as favourites or bookmarks?
