First, the browser rocks! Installed it because firefox magically disappeared because I stopped an update (because I was using a 20smth version of firefox and didn't want the new more draining design/program) and now I'm keeping this as my only browser lol.
Okay, so... when I type in the html bar on the top, instead of taking me directly to a site (because I wrote ".com") it takes me to search results. How can I change that?
And, I've been looking for a tool, program, addon or whatever that can help me disable javascript on sites I pick, same for blocking images on sites I want to pick. Any suggestions for that?
Two things I need advice for

For the first question, try:
about:config > keyword.enabled = true plus browser.fixup.alternate.enabled = false

1.2.0 works fine too, but you have to build the XPI yourself.doofy wrote: I use uMatrix: https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/releases/tag/1.1.4

Does 1.2.0 offer any noticeable advantage over 1.1.4?vannilla wrote:1.2.0 works fine too, but you have to build the XPI yourself.doofy wrote: I use uMatrix: https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/releases/tag/1.1.4

To disable js, images,... these add-ons for Pale Moon might be an option too:

https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/javascriptblock/
https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/togglejscript/

If I remember correctly, there were some bugfixes and/or performance improvements, but don't quote me on that.doofy wrote: Does 1.2.0 offer any noticeable advantage over 1.1.4?
I'm sure about removing a couple of features, but you can get them back with separate extensions so nothing was really lost.
