No. They dropped support 3 years ago.Does Opera even support freebsd any longer. It seems as they don't based on some spat with licensing.
I don't use FreeBSD on the desktop but I just checked and as I expected all open source browsersWhich web browsers are up-to-date with 11.0? Seamonkey isn't, Firefox-esr is beyond slow and cpu hungry, Opera and Linux-Opera don't seem to be supported any longer; thus, what are BSD users having any satisfaction with?
There's a difference. Plugins and add-ons are written by third parties in most cases. All of the plugins and add-ons I use work but you haven't said which ones you use.many of the plugins, addons, etc . . . for each have become either non-usable or simply un-responsive. Mostly by web-sites saying your browser is no longer supported or missing appropriate plugins.
You are confused. Except for using FreeBSD as a server, and FreeBSD serves nearly 40% of all internet traffic by Netflix alone, which OS delivers the web site is inconsequential to the web developer creating the pages themselves. But, I, too, and going to stop now.BSD has simply become a secondary OS in many of web-site developers.
This at one time was a good browser and my main one, but it has been updated since 2013. If you use this you will get tons of SSL version errors because it doesn't support the version most sites are using now.are up to date. What web browser are you looking for? Internet Explorer or Safari? Opera (Presto engine) is dead and that has nothing to do with FreeBSD. If you need different skin for WebKit engine there are plenty of different skins.
This has more to do with those plugins than with the browser or the OS. Which plugins do you require? I have zero plugins installed and I can do pretty much everything. Even my online banking. But then again, my bank has a proper website and doesn't require dodgy third-party plugins.Then when you spend hours chasing plugins for multimedia, banking, etc ... most of the browsers listed by SirDice and BSD display a message like: "no plugins supported by your browser."
This is a complete non-issue. It's a browser. All it has to do is render HTML and perhaps execute some javascript. This has nothing to do with the OS the browser runs on. I have zero issues with websites, as long as they're properly made and don't strictly depend on Internet Explorer specific features (like ActiveX for example). Ten years ago this was quite different when IE held 90% of the browser market, nowadays sites are built to support a variety of browsers regardless of the OS that browser runs on.BSD has simply become a secondary OS in many of web-site developers.
Erm, GW-BASIC ran on MS-DOS. The venerable Commodore 64 did have a BASIC written by Microsoft, but it had nothing to do with GW-BASIC.when I wrote GW-BASIC for an old Commador to have programs
Hey, Thanks. After so many years of sim-links, complying, working with Makefiles etc ... I have the same perception as your comment. BSD has simply become a secondary OS in many of web-site developers. I am saddened, to say the least, about that very obvious aspect of your beloved, fantastic FreeBSD OS. Its been sixteen years since I feel in love with it but never had the computer training to write or develop my own programs like I did as a secondary teacher of music when I wrote GW-BASIC for an old Commador to have programs to inventory marching band uniforms, catalog the sheet music, and keep an up-to-date inventory of instruments. Anyway, I will stop, but will always keep the faith that, people with much better training and compassion will keep up the great work with FreeBSD and hopefully those who develop web based software will remember our beloved BSD.
Well, no. As far as browsers go, I can't think of anything FreeBSD doesn't support inside any browser.It's true that on the client side FreeBSD is severly lacking because the browsers can't be made to support all the bells and whistles what the latest and greatest "innovations" in web technologies are using.
