While Maxthon is in focus, press shift+escape and sort by memory usage, you will see what is eating memory. But to be honest, if you have lots of RAM, memory preallocation is a preferred way of using memory.
Maxthon:
- still creates a desktop icon without permission
- still does not show properly how many open tabs are hidden if more then 100
- still does not allow opening magnet links in external apps without BrightVPN
- still asks for confirmation when opening more than 18 bookmarks in one go
There are more, but I can't recall them.
I'm unaware if other browsers restrict magnet link functionality behind premium or paid features. If so, I find this practice unacceptable, and it discourages me from using the browser.
Firefox is my alternative to whom I switch to every time something does not work in Maxthon, which is lately to often.
Vivaldi also showed a lot of promise but lacked one crucial feature which I can't live without - open new tabs from addressbar by pressing enter. This however can be fixed by manually editing some files.
Have the same problem. I have multiple PCs using the same account. I thought I was going crazy. I even noticed that some UNINSTALLED extensions keep coming back.
