Lolifox?

I just tried it.
It sounds kind of dirty... but...

"lolifox is a customized version of Mozilla's Firefox made for the Anime-Community."

QuoteWhat's the difference?
lolifox offers a default collection of the most important bookmarks everyone should know of.
Besides that, it extends the browser with better design for some tasks like FTP-/Gopher-index display (which looks horrible in Firefox) and other custom branding.
Planned for the future are native FTP-support, a aniDB-client and other nice things.

QuoteIs it compatible to Firefox?
lolifox is fully compatible to Firefox. So even that it is a total conversion and completly decoupled from Firefox, all plugins, extentions and themes can be used in lolifox.
(Compatible version as of lf0.2.5-dev27: Firefox 2.0)

QuoteCan I run both browsers side-by-side?
Yes, you can.
lolifox installs into it's own directory and has it's own configuration, so that both don't interfere with each other.

Can I import the bookmarks from Firefox to lolifox?
Yes, you can.
Export them in Firefox as a bookmarks.html and import that file again in lolifox (Bookmarks Manager).

loli?
The usage of "loli" isn't intended as use of "lolicon". The project is intended for the whole audience, not only lolicons. It's intended as "the cuteness of loli found in anime".
(small disclaimer ^^)

This shouldn't be a problem for most of you ppl, but I think I should put this warning too, because I've tried it.
LOLIFOX INCLUDES SOME BOOKMARKS WHICH CONTAINS ADULT IMAGES AND TORRENTS.

Just want to share it with you ppl...

Alright, I haven't tried it yet, but jsyk I'm gonna use it, no doubt.

EDIT Well, what do you know. File is corrupt >_>

Firefox developers must probably get pissed at people basically just copy-pasting their entire source code and branding it as their own browser.

At least the flock guys have actually changed the actual browser a noticeable amount. All these weeaboos have done is included a couple of extensions and added some bookmarks. Uh, wow.

It's not hard = ZOMFG SILVERFOX

Say was that the new theme in that screen shot?

This is actually the third time the new theme has "supposedly" been "leaked" to the normies.

lol@donate button on the site.

JAP · July 17, 2007, 09:23:22 AM

What's wrong with donate button? >_>

Roph · July 17, 2007, 08:43:21 PM

They're asking for money when they've done pretty much nothing at all.

tSwitch · July 17, 2007, 08:55:32 PM

I dl'd

Tezuka · July 17, 2007, 11:06:51 PM

Just tried it,

It is just firefox with a new skin, some links going to sites in Japanese......That's it. Even if you like it, it is practically Firefox if you don't know Japanese.

PAlease, they openly tell you it's firefox, they're not claiming they made it all. All they've done is made a skin and included some porn links and are allowing people to download it for free.

I'm pretty sure Firefox has a detailed instruction section on their site telling people how to edit and customise their program. So why would they get pissed, because people are doing what they intended them to do?

It's a cute skin, with a few semi-useful links.

Exactly that - it's all they've done. What credit (or money) is that deserving of? =x This is an actual effort to take firefox's source and do something with it.

&&&&&&&&&&&&& · July 18, 2007, 04:43:18 AM

I'm using it now...

ahref · July 18, 2007, 01:18:05 PM

im surpirsed tv-links or alluc havent done the same thing with bookmarks to tv shows

JAP · July 19, 2007, 11:47:33 AM

Okay, I know they might be doing something wrong with the Donate button...

...but if no one clicks on it, it's ok, right? Well, I doubt it's like that. But donate button is practically you donate if you want to. They didn't force you to pay per download.

Arrow · July 19, 2007, 03:01:30 PM

It is wrong. It's a beggar website, and people feel more inclined to give money because they use the word, "donate". It's a lie, and a scam. Your money isn't going towards the bettering of lolifox, as lolifox is nothing but firefox with a new name on it, and they can just "update" every time a new version comes out. It's fraudulent.

JAP · July 20, 2007, 05:22:24 AM

*sigh*

I guess I'm still so naive...

Arrow · July 21, 2007, 02:42:33 AM

Well don't take it so personally.

If it didn't fool some people, the site wouldn't have even made it this far. You shouldn't blame it on naivete, it's just cleverness on their part for abusing a simple system.

JAP · July 23, 2007, 06:22:53 AM

Yeah.
I guess I learnt some things. Thanks, Arrow-san.

I don't take it personally. Cuz I NEVER touch any donate button. My parents will beat me up if I do. LOL.
