For a laugh try this if you’re in there… ALT + F1 :lol:

Do it a second time to undo.


Imagine watching multiple video streams… or cameras of your home/business.

Hardly a week goes by without someone from around the world honoring the hard work I've put into the Classic browser. :)

It’s always very touching and an absolute honor to have served you… thank you very much people!

You've done a very good job in promoting it. Obviously there are people around the world who can understand and appreciate it's full value and potential. Keep it up.

I am still using Firefox for general use, while keeping the Classic for special cases.

I didn't go beyond the basics of adding a few bookmarks and watching streams and videos. Only a few streams work in Firefox, while the Classic has no problems.
I love the way it kills banners and advertisements. Very often web pages viewed in Firefox are so much flooded that you can't watch/read what you want. The Classic solves the problem.
Even the way it crashes -I think it crashes on my computer when I load more than 3 streams- is better. Firefox freezes my computer and I have to restart, whereas the Classic just exits.

Some cons among the basics.
The icons of the buttons to the right of the red heart are almost identical. I can't tell what they do by looking at the icons, and I always have to hover over waiting for the popup description.

Nothing wrong with using multiple browsers… they all have good points and bad points.

The banner removal is very handy but sometimes it may overdo it and the whole content disappears… in which case just right-click and select “Reload this page > Without GDPR”.

You can block all adds with Firefox as well.

As well as integrate with proton mail through a Tor Browser.

The Classic goes way beyond ads... Firefox can't do what the Classic does.

Yes it can. It has an inbuilt Tor Browser if you want to use it, and even access the Dark Web.

Another good one is Brave Browser.

BTW, have you integrated your browser to work with Windows 11?

I prefer the "Made in Cyprus" thingy.
