Why not give it a try?lobocursor wrote:Btw, thank you for the start.me idea but as Moonchild says this is not a forced thing. So I will move to a blank page for my start page.
Redirects are now in place and you should be forwarded to the new page.KNTRO wrote:Hi all & hi michieldewit,
Will the new Pale Moon START portal be ready today/tomorrow?
Thanks.
The links shown are not all going to be used by everyone, of course, but they are quick links to commonly used pages in the Pale Moon user base.SvenG wrote:I also have my own (long used) start page solution and of the links shown I am not even using a hand full on a regular basis so I do not really need this, but I think it looks already pretty good.
Using good old Speed Dial extension cause I prefer an offline solution, sometimes helps a bit when you have a lousy mobile connection and opening such a start page takes like 10 or more seconds. Not that other pages would load faster but saving a few seconds here and there isn't bad. I also started using ordinary bookmarks and the keywords much more lately. Anyway, even if this is not my solution, I think it is an interesting one.Moonchild wrote:I don't know what you use currently, but of course you can build the same in the new page now *wink wink nudge nudge*
I had reported that the icons takes around 1 to 3 minutes to show up vs. instantly in the static page. From the info I send to Moonchild, somewhere in Texas the network have a delay of 300-500ms in the tests and in some cases I get a time off.michieldewit wrote:Why not give it a try?lobocursor wrote:Btw, thank you for the start.me idea but as Moonchild says this is not a forced thing.

Do the favicons take 1 to 3 minutes to load every time you open the page? Some aggressive caching is configured for those icons, so they should only be loaded the first time. From there on, they should be served from your local cache. Have you perhaps disabled local caching?lobocursor wrote: I had reported that the icons takes around 1 to 3 minutes to show up vs. instantly in the static page.

Thanks for the link, I've posted it on Reddit.
I will try the caching solution. But also just check in your side if the images are optimized, your graphic design people can tell that even with a small icon, a proper setting for low colors (local palette) is faster than to render millions of colors (RGB palette).michieldewit wrote:Do the favicons take 1 to 3 minutes to load every time you open the page?

I agree that these settings do make a difference. Most of the icons we offer are directly taken from their associated web sites, so we have little control over the quality settings for those icons. The settings we can influence are currently set for quality, rather than size, so that is something worth investigating.lobocursor wrote:I will try the caching solution.
