Interesting list. The early ones are from when software felt like toys compared to today. There was something... insubstantial about some applications in the mid 90s.
I spent years using all the minor browsers made for Linux. Galeon, Konqueror, Epiphany, Firebird/Phoenix, Opera, Mozilla. I think my favorite was Galeon due to the interface being very simple and direct. I also appreciated the very sober interface of Mozilla 1.
- z3t4 5y agoKonqueror is still popular on Arch Linux
- jtvjan 5y agoBut unfortunately, the KHTML engine behind it is no longer being developed. Most people use it with the Qt WebEngine backend, which is Chromium-based.
- code_duck 5y agoDo you know why they don’t use WebKit or Blink, given their relation to khtml?
- code_duck 5y agoKDE seems to be doing great these days in general. I use Windows a lot right now, unfortunately, but if I used Linux more often I’m sure I’d still be using Konqueror.
