I've noticed that you can make #QtWebEngine act as a simple web browser with a very thin wrapper written in #Python using #PySide.
It might help me to be more conscious about my internet usage, which is something I want to achieve since a long time.
So, I've committed such crime: https://codeberg.org/Aelspire/pyquefa-browser
I'm sorry!
Ayer empecé a revisar y probar el meticuloso trabajo de Guido y Bhushan en #MorphBrowser #Qt6. Morph es el #navegadorweb que viene con #Lomiri, el entorno operativo #convergente. El salto de Morph a Qt6 nos permite compilar Morph con qt6-webengine. Para los usuarios de Lomiri, esto supondrá un gran hito, ya que eleva el motor del navegador predeterminado (Chromium) proporcionado por #QtWebengine de la v...

Yesterday I started with reviewing and testing Guido's and Bhushan's meticulous work on #Morph Browser #Qt6. Morph is the #webbrowser that comes with #Lomiri, the #convergent operating environment. The bump of Morph to Qt6 allows us to build Morph against qt6-webengine. For Lomiri users this will be a huge milestone, as it bumps the default browser (chromium) engine provided by #QtWebengine from v87 to v122 (via QtWebengine 6.8.2).
Seems 4GB is not enough for building #QtWebEngine even with single processing (-j1)
Where did we go so wrong, everything is so fucking bloated?
#compiling #bloatware
Custom built #gcc it is then. Lets see if #QtWebEngine builds now.
Great, memory eating bug in #gcc aarch64 and of course #debian has the buggy version. And there is no backport. Stable my ass.
#QtWebEngine
#QtWebEngine integrates Chromium's fast moving web capabilities into Qt without binary blobs and without services that talk to Google platforms.
#qutebrowser is based on it and has a cool keyboard-powered interface, integrated adblock- & greasemonkey-script-support ...
Try it out!
Which exactly is #KDE's browser? I know both is, but... which is the "de facto" web browser if you were to recommend one to the general user? #Falkon or #Konqueror?
I still find no reason to move away from #Firefox, but just in case, I should prolly start looking for an alt considering #Mozilla's becoming more and more... hopeless/irrelevant.
#Chromium based browsers ain't a (valid) choice for me, fuck #Google.

Update: nvm, Falkon's not an option as it's a #QtWebEngine browser, which is Chromium based.
After over 2 months of hard work, all #KDE applications and #KDEPlasma have been updated to the latest versions! 🎉 #Qt5.15 and #Qt6.7, including #QtWebEngine, also received updates. A big step forward for the #OpenBSD ports ecosystem! 🐡
guess who tried for 16h to get #qtwebengine to compile reliably and reproducible for #t2sde #OpenSource #Linux?

@mrmasterkeyboard You think X is gonna take ferever, wait'll ye get te that #qtwebengine bidniss. 😆
A few of my recent merge times fer it:Ryzen7 3700 - 2:01:20 (desktop old proc)Ryzen9 5900 - 1:01:59 (desktop new proc)i7-10510U - 11:54:13 (laptop)
@flypig Sounds very interesting! Checkout my Gecko-dev source tree on how manage Gecko releases and patches on them in Git. It made life much easier for me.
I'm also interested on having some demos that one could use to show Mozembedded on Desktop #Linux as an alternative of embedding Chromium with #QtWebEngine.
Ping me if you need any help.
PSA @fedora folks, to use #Discourse (#AskFedora and #FedoraDiscussion) on your #QTWebEngine based browsers like #Qutebrowser and #Falkon, pass `enable-experimental-web-platform-features` in the `qt.args` (for Qutebrowser, not sure what it is for Falkon):
I think it would be much more interesting if #VSCode ran on top of #Webkit-GTK or #QTWebEngine instead of #Electron.
Maybe even integration of features that had to be native would be easier.
(Oh, yes, VSCode has binary code other than Electron btw.)
#Deezer führt in drei verschiedenen Browser unter #FreeBSD zu #MemoryLeaks! In #Iridium (basierend auf #Chromium), #Falkon (basierend auf #QtWebEngine) und #Firefox
Es gab bereits früher ein solches Leak in #Firefox unter #Windows, das wurde mittlerweile behoben.
Ist das nur bei mir so?
Liegt das am OS oder an Deezer?
::: FALKON :kde:
Looking for a new alternative for a web browser?
Falkon is a Qt-based lightweight one - kicking ahead in development.
Falkon has grown to be feature-rich - how much so in your opinion - why not give it a spin?
Please report all the bugs possibly encountered to forward this browser by KDE 🙏

Oh, yes. Now I can't use my #Falkon webbrowser to post. Because #Misskey don't works with #QtWebEngine.
@Blort #visurf is based on #netsurf, which has its own layout engine. #Qutebrowser is based on #QtWebEngine (from Chromium); I'm not sure how separate the QtWebEngine and Chromium are at this point (the "spawn" question is maybe interesting to consider more).
Neither meets the requirements you listed yet, but both have a plausible claim to doing so in the future. Maybe worth using them and contributing to them, I'd say. (I'm not affiliated with either project in any way).
Why does this simple QML browser not render the internal HTML page?
#RStudio is the most popular IDE for R, however it is inaccessible to sight-impaired users given that screen readers catch a lot of rubbish. In my limited testing, the audio is useless.
According to the RStudio website and a response from accessibility@rstudio.com, this is due to limitations of the underlying #QtWebEngine, and will therefore not improve until they move to #Electron.
