Dot Browser is a privacy-conscious web browser with smarts built-in for protection against trackers and advertisements online.

New gecko based browsers are rare nowadays but this one is especially unique to me because it is more than just “firefox with tweaks” like a lot of the ones I’ve come across. The UI is different, it’s working on custom settings, a new more powerful sidebar, a new theming system, and potentially IPFS/Dat support further down the line. It’s very early in development but it’s still impressive as it is.

    Yes, all motors are FOSS, but the update are patches. You can review all the code (script~2Gb for WebKit) and analyse it before you are retired? The updates for this are adons, to patch some security and compatibility holes, not a real improvement, which requires a lot of recources and developers.

        So I don’t understand why Safari and others with WebKit perform so poorly compared to Gecko and Blink.

            You say it, that Apple will have to use Blink. As I said before, if WebKit had no limitations, no one would have bothered to develop Blink many years ago. Now the developers have enormous difficulties in implementing the functionalities that they have in their corresponding Blink and Gecko browsers, in WebKit so that Apple accepts them.

                No, but nevertheless I think that sooner or later there will be no other than the WebKit browsers going to Blink.
