IMHO Pale Moon looks and works very good for odd desktops/laptops. I like aswell for other reason. Have ALSA sound in default, GTK2, Mozilla Firefox old style. Have no Adobe Flash in default, Have no CISCO open h264*... Exactly have zero plugins installed.
It is worth having a look for a while and make your conclusion yourself.
Can you do that test with differents chromium versions???
As you've got an old laptop, I'd like to know what chromium versions is fastests with old laptops. You can install easilly differents chrome engines with Opera: https://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/desktop/

Use Lynx. I promise you you'll have no RAM issues.
I used to think that was a good idea until I read an interview of Stallman where he said that he just wgets the internet pages. Lynx is quite heavy I'd say.

I think that might be a great idea for my upcoming project of using the Internet only a couple of hours a day productively instead of always being on and distracted. A lot of the sites I'm on basically convey text information. There's hardly any need to get all the page content if I'm honest. Thanks for mentioning. I'll be looking for a howto.

Lynx, doenst make any sense unless you need browse internet in mode console.. you always can disable pics and javascript and get a better experience with any browser than with Lynx. I do this whenever i need to consume the less possible data movil and give internet portatil to my laptop.

but he doesn't do it because of lightweightness - he does it so he can look at the pages while being offline.
the ultimate protection against... erm... i forget what was it all the tinfoilhatters are protecting themselves against... ahh, attacks!

Yeah, no, I'll take credit for that invention. He probably uses Emacs to read em. Why bother? Just cat. More lightweight, you see.

By the way you can also use a feed reader to just fetch the text from many pages, many pages where all the images are advertisements..

I have only tested Chromium from Debian repository a few days ago.
But i wasn't so much happy with font rendering as well memory usage.
I am a long time user of Pale Moon which i find myself better on this browser. Sorry I can not help you with Opera.

As you might know from others of my own posts, I couldnt work properly with kde until I installed the 4GB.
At first i Upgraded to 2GB RAM, and i could not yet work, so I next upgraded to 4GB, now no more problems anymore with RAM.
By the way, Im a telecommunication engineer, so I do know somethings.

For really truly old machines, I recently added a 32-bit palemoon-nonsse2 package to my repo that does not require SSE2--examples are some old AMD Athlon or Via processors.
I don't know why there are some people in this thread being dicks instead of suggesting lightweight browsers. Qupzilla is considerably faster than Firefox. Additionally, I've disabled Netscape plugins, Javascript and Java but I have very simple requirements.
Dillo is the fastest browser I've used but it's virtually useless because it doesn't format pages properly.

They aren't being "dicks", they're having a bit of fun. If you take the time to read more of bester69's threads, you'd find that the OP doesn't mind a bit of criticism and comes here to have fun too. I wouldn't be at all surprised if bester69 is chuckling too. After all, this is the Offtopic Forum.
Many are disappointed with the choice of Falkon as Qupzilla's new name instead of "Browsey McBrowserface" or "Falkon Puuunnch!", but that's the Internet for you.

Something like a LTS older version of firefox/chromium with just security updates. I meant with each new update, internet browsers need more CPU and RAM, and in older computer they are not workable anymore.
Try SeaMonkey (currently based on Firefox 51.0) and Slimjet (based on Chromium).
