Question for people who are into browsers:
I, like many people, am uncomfortable with Mozilla's decision to become Bad Actually. As someone who prefers to use software made by people who are Good Actually, I've been looking for alternatives.
I haven't heard anyone suggest DuckDuckGo as an alternative browser. Is there some discourse over it that I missed previously (due to not really being into browsers) which renders it a non-option?
In fact, webkit-based browsers generally haven't been brought up, which is weird because I have seen numerous people say "all remaining alternatives are now Chromium." Again, is this because they're already considered a non-option?
This is not a "recommend me a browser" request. Many of those have already been made and I've learned a lot from reading them. This is a "tell me the dirt on DDG / webkit so I know whether or not I can migrate to it" request.
> tell me the dirt on DDG / webkit
On DDG I think it's not proper FOSS, it's some kind of "freeware".
Regarding other webkit-based browsers, the main one of course is Safari which is also not FOSS. The closest one to being and usable while also being FOSS I think is GNOME Web, formerly Epiphany. But that one is just not good enough, I think it lacks some "must have" features.
To summarize, webkit-based browsers are either not FOSS, or too far from being usable.
