Chrome to limit ad blocking to 30k rules, prevent request blocking for non-enterprise users

Also, Chrome is the worst browser for tabs. After about 30-35, it starts making them too small to see the icons. Somewhere around 40-45, it just doesn't show the overflow at all. Why can't it just scroll like Firefox? Too hard for and the pink-haired weirdos in Mountain View?
I can't understand to this day why 'wrap to multiple lines' is not an option in any current browser. Worked great in old Opera.
Vivaldi at least has 'tabs on left'.

Drag some of them over to a new window.

In the same sense that storing separate files in the same directory defeats the purpose of files or keeping separate windows in the same virtual desktop defeats the purpose of virtual desktops.

I can't believe that anybody is defending Chrome's tab behavior. They had to drag me kicking and screaming from separate IE windows. "All those IE windows clutter your desktop" everybody said. Now it's apparently acceptable to clutter my desktop with Chrome windows.
Google duhvelopers just can't resist controlling people. It's not enough that users can't turn tabs off, no, they've got to control how many can be effectively used too. Positively reeks of "you don't need..." Even the stupid mobile version isn't that stupid.

Thousand times this. With a lot of additional 'produce with minimal possible effort'.

I tried this back in the day:
Didn't work well enough for me to switch from Firefox.

Start Chrome: Loads every single tab, meaning that all the work tabs gets redirected to my work login because the session expired. So instead of just loading the first tab, log in, and then be all logged in when accessing the other tabs I get to do extra effort getting the other tabs back.
Lifesaver this one.
From the description:
Note: Where there are hundreds of tabs open in the session, a couple of them sneak through and become active. This limitation is due to the design of the browser. See https://github.com/hrj/sloth/issues/1.
The browser does not wait for extensions to be fully loaded and ready before opening tabs, it's a by-design browser issue. Reported before.

Ignoring the bug for now, what exactly is wrong with this behaviour? In the worst case (immediately logging in or using a different account to last time) this is no faster or slower than just logging in on command but in the best case (power on, get distracted, enter password) it's faster than before. What possible reason could there be to dislike it apart from "hurr durr m$ bad lol"?
It's a good feature, but it has the potential to trigger unwanted behaviour, like auto playing videos.

Try getting over 100 tabs on the mobile versionâŚ

I miss Tree Style Tabs. Another thing, like Launchy, that was already perfect a decade ago and that software makers hope you forget about.

I assume those catch fire before you've even opened Chrome.

Itâs generally not great when your PornTube video restarts on full blast at 3am.Especially when your kid wants to log into their own account instead.

But thatâs not really a bug, itâs a core feature of fast boot. Which is the point being made â to paper over their slow startup performance (and the alien shooting disruptions caused by update reboots), Windows is restarting things that were open when the computer rebooted. And thus they caused side effects that can be disruptive and difficult to stop.

Not at all: if you keep all your open tabs in the same window, how can you easily tell where to find the tabs about any given subject? Group them into windows and you make switching to the ones you want much easier.

@izzion One question, shouldn't all output (not just the screen, but also audio, and perhaps other kinds like vibrations or I don't know what) generally be blocked when the computer is locked?

Most applications that register with Restart Manager are fully capable of preserving their state to disk. When the computer restarts and logs you in, those applications are able to load their state and restore themselves perfectly to where you left off, with no side effects. That's been the dream since before Vista was Vista, and the problem that Restart Manager was designed to solve, and that Windows 10 assumes it solved.
The web, though... The web is Differentâ˘.

Just tried out this extension. I lost all my pinned tabs, they all loaded
about:blank
and that was that. Nothing I did made them load the correct page.

I haven't actually used it since I switched to Tabs Outliner.

Restart Manager
Master Server does in fact properly register itself for restart, as well as the crash recovery thing.
Only bad thing is that some Not My Code assumes certain things about the working directory, and thus the web interface stays down despite the program restarting as expected.

@Atazhaia said in Chrome to limit ad blocking to 30k rules, prevent request blocking for non-enterprise users:
it will look like Windows is blazing fast at startup even though it was all just background fakery, like everything else designed to make Windows look faster than it is.
What's the difference?
And yes, if your browser happened to be open on a Youtube video then it will start playing said video and you can't do anything about it until you actually log in.
Sounds like the browser's fault.

Iâd never heard of Windows Restart Manager, but reading about it a little now I get the impression its purpose is to prevent installers from unnecessarily restarting the computer, not for applications to come back up as they were after a restart?

Ok, I may have a few more tabs open than I thought. 65 windows, with as many as 31 tabs in a window, although most have far fewer; this window, with 13 tabs, is the second-highest, I think, and there are a bunch of windows with only one tab.

Never played music (or videos for their audio) while doing things away from the computer? Let the computer stay on a meeting call or play a "training" presentation while you step away?
-
@Gurth It's both, actually. Applications register what resources they're using and how to close and re-open themselves. Installers can look up those resources, figure out which applications are using them, close only those applications, update the resources, and reopen them. However, now that you've got a table of how to "seamlessly" close and reopen applications, you can use that for other purposes as well, like system updates (also part of the original intent), crash recovery, or fast login.

If Google removes the API, Vivaldi said they are likely to restore it in their browser and claimed they have done similar things before.

Made the jump to firefox on my work pc. I have to admit that it's working out okay. My company's website actaully loads faster on it but that might be because I've disabled just about everything in firefox's options. Quite pleased. I'll probably move my home pcs over to it now.

I made the switch at home the other day. I've been on Firefox at work for a while, it was just preventing switching at home.
