Is the only innovation in how customizable the UI is? I guess it's way too hard to write a new rendering engine. With the existing ecosystem of chrome / Firefox / safari extensions it will be difficult to gain traction.
- adrusi 11y agoNote that this is a kde based browser. I got the impression the the author didn't even plan on porting it to non-linux OSs. Its not looking for mainstream adoption, it looks like its just trying to be the next kde web browser, one that integrates well with the kde desktop environment, like epiphany on gnome.
- userbinator 11y agoWhile more new rendering engines are good too, having more flexible and customisable UIs is something that mainstream browsers seem to be actively moving away from, so a new UI on an existing rendering engine isn't such a bad idea.
