By going into the Dolphin{anty} settings via the left menu, you can see a list of profile settings.
Disable IndexDB sync
Change in this setting may result in unexpected outcome, including LOSS OF YOUR DATA
Enable Extension Filesystem sync
Enabling this setting may significantly slow down your browser profile synchronization
Use hardware acceleration
When enabled, speeds up video processing up to 400% when working with H.264 and MPEG-2 codecs. If you have a weak PC, we recommend turning it off to make the browser profile run faster.
Disable image loading
Hide video spoofing and cookie download buttons
Substitute the browser profile name and icon in the taskbar
Disable video download
It's worth explaining a bit what they do 🤔 ⬇️
1) IndexDB - is a storage in the browser that allows you to store files and is similar to LocalStorage, but unlike it can store larger amounts of data. Some sites can use it to cache the data they need about page visits, content viewed, etc. But in the case of extensions - it is only used by extensions that work with files, for example - photo editors.
🔵 What does disabling IndexDB synchronization do:
If your browser profile is loaded with a lot of data and has a large size - it will take longer to open and close due to the archiving of the profile and its synchronization, and by disabling this synchronization - this process can speed up, but there may be data loss on sites that use IndexDB to store important data, each site works differently.
2) Extensions file system - this is the extensions data that they cache and save during their work. What kind of data - depends on the extension itself and its goals.
🔵 What the extension file system does by enabling synchronization:
Extensions data, their cache, saved content and settings will be fully synchronized to the cloud along with browser profiles. This will give a full saving of your data but at the same time may slow down opening and closing of profiles.
3) Hardware acceleration - this technology speeds up video processing up to 400% when working with H.264 and MPEG-2 codecs.
🔵 When you disable hardware acceleration, Chromium stops using the GPU and all graphics processing goes to the CPU. Since graphics card data is part of the fingerprint, this can change the fingerprint and disrupt GPU-related swaps, making the browser profile more vulnerable to anti-fraud systems.
4) Disable image loading - so disables loading any images on pages within browser profiles 😁
🔵 Disabling image loading can save proxy or internet connection traffic, but when enabled it applies to the whole team. This setting can break the display and structure of sites.
5) Hiding video spoofing and cookie download buttons - implies hiding the buttons in the top right corner of browser profiles, just hides this functionality.
6) Substitute the browser profile name and icon in the taskbar - activating this feature hides the browser profile name in the taskbar and shows the default Chrome icon.
7) Disable video downloading - needed to save traffic, disables video downloading on any platforms. For example, YouTube, TikTok, etc. The change affects all browser profiles in the team.
Now you know "what and why", but remember that such actions you do at your own risk 😉
