We are making a web browser! PREVIOUSLY: In the face of recent changes in Firefox and Chrome some anons were asking for a Sup Forums's perfect web browser, we collected the most wanted here and plan on continuing with the creation.
To contribute follow the WORK PLAN, join the IRC to ask developers for a repo, and get to programming! IRC on Rizon: #Sup Forumsnetrunner
Work on getting it into the repos is still ongoing though.

Cooper Turner
Please note, he's dropping support for older qt (along with legacy qtwebkit) and older python later this year. This will break compatibility with older distros github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/2742
Joseph Powell
FWIW all those old distros have both an upgrade available (Debian Jessie -> Stretch, Ubuntu 14.04 -> 16.04). You probably also can install a Python 3.5 there (via the deadsnakes PPA or pyenv)

>using python >using QT
Zachary Lewis
You didn't list a single thing wrong with either

Qt is a bloated piece of shit, that much is true.
Joshua Kelly
Why aren't you programming this in assembly? You're all autists, right? Do it right
Brody Sanders
Why you guys don't use curl and quvi to for fetching websites? You could work on the rendering engine an leave everything else to other tools. Make this more unix and use existing tools.
Reusing applications is a good idea, keep it UNIX.
Samuel Powell
I can't contribute anything but I support this idea
Logan Sanchez
You retards aren't even using Gabario. Nice botnet
Jace Baker

Jose Bennett
The fuck is Gabario
