   So many bugs to fix

   The idea of a productivity based browser is great but since this browser is still new, it has trouble with a lot of things. Sometimes it doesn't open a new tab when i try, sometimes web apps don't open, and overall its not a smooth experience that i could recommend to people

   🏁 Competitors: Vivaldi, Mozilla Firefox, Brave

   👍 Pros:    Everything you need is in the homepage|Looks really pretty|Focuses on productivity|Has control over ram usage and data|A search option that searches all throughout your history, bookmarks, web and everything

   👎 Cons:    A buggy performance|Short term freezes|Might need some time getting used to the web apps

• Making Twitter likes/bookmarks backup tool as side quest of browser that saves everything

  To make snapshot it takes current state of DOM, current state of styles (to capture CSS-in-JS stuff), take resources like font/images from network storage (Chrome Dev Tools protocol) and saves it as HTML on disk.

• The Puppeteer Language Experiment

  This project tests how the browser language can be changed with Puppeteer. It implements multiple options to set the language of Chrome and checks each option against BrowserLeaks to see how it affected the JavaScript proeprties and HTTP headers available by the browser. For more information, see my article The Puppeteer Language Experiment on DEV.to. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• The /unblock API from Browserless: dodging bot detection as a service

  I'm sure that happens, but I haven't done any work with gyro data myself. There's similar logic for mouse cursor movements, there are libraries out there that will generate a natural looking curve that moves the cursor from one position to another, with imperfections that emulate human hand movement. > Why do we even need an actual device? We can emulate if we even need to and set our headers to look like we're... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• The confusing CalyxOS-supplied Chromium

  WebRTC Leak Test by BrowserLeaks. With WebRTC turned off, as it is by default in Cromite and CalyxOS Chromium, this site returns "No Leak". With Chrome, or with WebRTC turned on (possible via the site settings, which has an address bar shortcut), more information is exposed. Source: 6 months ago

• Setting proxy doesn't work in Quitebrowser, but it works in Firefox.

  :set content.proxy socks://127.0.0.1:1055 doesn't work in Qutebrowser for me, and I can't figure out why. What's even more baffling, to me, is that https://browserleaks.com does work, but no other website would work. Source: 10 months ago
