Firefox has a lot of issues, but maybe we don't have any other option. (www.bleepingcomputer.com)

Maybe Ladybird can step in but I am still pissed that they do all communications overe proprietary services (Discord & Microsoft GitHub) which hurts the openness of the project.

Is GNOME Web that good? I'm actually asking because I have yet to use it.

[–] astro_ray@lemdro.id 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The experience varies depending what you are browsing, but for me, it is plenty good. I can use my misskey account, github/gitlab account, can watch YouTube and few other streaming services as well (although how well or if they run at all depends on what streamingservice you use). Webkit GTK has few issues with touch screen devices, like backspace key of on-screen keyboard not working properly or stylus not working properly etc. Also, the PDF view feels a bit janky.

Got it. I'll take that into consideration once I try it out. Especially since I view PDF files on my browser a lot.
