Nice advertisement faggot

I'm sticking with firefox thanks

>>60096157
Unstable as fuck. Maybe next year.

>>60096194
Haven't had any issue so far

>>60096194
Try with the QtWebKit-NG or QtWebEngine backend - almost all crashes are in the backend and not in qutebrowser itself, and if you're using QtWebKit, that's quite unstable.

Make new thread one qutebrowser gets something like noscript for firefox.

>>60096230
I tried to change the font size of the tabbar. Crashed and wouldn't restart.

Then I uninstalled it.

This is now the thread you are refering to:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/the-compiler/qutebrowser-v10-with-per-domain-settings

>>60096233
i have less crashes since i switched to qtwebengine.
im a bit confused: why is qutebrowser using qtwebkit in archlinux as default ?

>>60096226
FWIW none of those recent posts are by me. I use
http://git.the-compiler.org/webdiff/tree/webdiff to monitor https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/_/search/text/qutebrowser/ and answer to threads though.

>>60096248
See https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/27 - going to happen around July!

>>60096157
What is this file?
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/master/qutebrowser/resources.py

>>60096263
Huh, works fine here, and haven't heard about issues with that either so far. Did you get a segfault or a python exception?

>>60096329
Because some features (like private browsing) are still missing, because Qt 5.8 had various annoying bugs with QtWebEngine (most patched in Arch's repos), and because there's qt5-webkit-ng.

See https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/2335 though

>>60096451
qutebrowser's icons compiled to a resource file so they're easy loadable from Qt

having some problems on musl with the qt backend
but i really like it.

>>60096157
Why don't you just use Blink?
or the one that Mozilla uses?

>>60098416
You can't just simply "use blink", you'll need something that gives you a somewhat stable API over it - the current options for that are CEF (Chromium embedded framework) and QtWebEngine. qutebrowser is using the latter, because it (obviously) integrates well with Qt.

I'll take a look at Servo once it's more mature and has Python bindings which can integrate with Qt.

>>60098531
I see. I don't really know a lot about browsers, but from what I've heard Servo's supposed to be better than Gecko? Or will they integrate it or something?

Anyway, maybe I'll try it on my laptop tomorrow because I like vim and
I don't know if qb seems to have the most potential or everything else I've read about just seems to have problems as well (Although ubzl seems like it has potential too).

Good luck!

>Reasons for using Firefox
You want features/addons/customisation/the browser to work for you
>Reasons for using Chromium
You just want a fast browser

Firecucks user with vimfx and mouse gestures here. Keyboard only usage is completely fucking retarded.

>>60098870
Who said keyboard-only?

>>60096157
What is firefox addon vimperator, vimfx?
What is chrome addon vimium?

>>60098870
I use vimfx aswell, and have to touch mouse mouse/touchpad when some input bix doesn't work with addon...

But mostly keyboard.

VimFX is comfy with laptop.
