#Qutebrowser

Ok , so importing all my bookmarks from multiple locations right? Importing into #qutebrowser which you can use quick-bookmarks or just bookmarks.

#qutebrowser doesn't really parse out the actual urls. At least I haven't found a way to do it yet. I can import just fine and use per device via file:/// but I want to use these bookmarks everywhere.

OK #FreeBSD folk why does #Qutebrowser have to be removed ??? I need it ! Just tried to do an update on FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p2

@tusharhero oh my bad probably. Using #qutebrowser on my laptop and sometimes I screw up the keybindings with #niri #emacs. Thanks for calling that out.

Oje, so vertieft in die Einrichtung meines neuen #Linux Systems, dass ich alles um mich herum vergesse 😳

Als Letztes bereitet mir gerade #Mastodon heftige Probleme. Da #tut nicht bei #Debian existiert (das ext. Repo kenne ich), habe ich #Tuba probiert. Gruselig. Dann in #qutebrowser und #epiphany - nicht praktikabel, besonders letzterer lässt den PC bis zum Anschlag hochdrehen. Bleibt nur #toot 🤔

Unbefriedigend.

Сегодня весь день гонял на #qutebrowser
Пришлось повозиться с конфигом, но прикольно, минимализм + управление с клавиатуры. Но чувствуется, что не такой резвый как популярные браузеры. Плохо блокирует рекламу, и при большом количестве открытых вкладок начинает подтупливать.

Жаль, но под мой сценарий использования не подойдет, поскольку у меня постоянно открыто куча вкладок.

Well, my Firefox on #archlinux has decided that a lot of certificates can't be validated any more so I fell back to using #qutebrowser until I find time to debug what's happening. A quick search didn't pop up other people with the same issue, so I suspect it's a me problem. :(

Strange! I have exactly the sane configs on both #OpenBSD and #FreeBSD #Qutebrowser yet FreeBSD displays the pages differently to OpenBSD. The zeros on webpages on OpenBSD have no internal marks yet FreeBSD zeros have a dot inside them. Fonts are different between the two. Also on FreeBSD I have to run qutebrowser with the nogpu option so it'll run under #Wayland. I never noticed differences like this before on 14.3 but on 15.0 I'm not quite sure what's different yet ?

So I have #FreeBSD 15.0 running on my #ThinkPad again and running #MangoWC but for some reason #Qutebrowser fails to run unless I have the following in my .kshrc

export QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--disable-gpu"
But I have noticed that the old config which previously ran on 14.3 now doesn't load my GoMono fonts using exactly the same config. Those fonts are working in foot so I know they are installed. Strange ???

I see a similar bug report here too.

I forgot how much I love Qutebrowser. It's been far too long.

I got the itch to play with Qutebrowser again, patiently waiting on qtwebengine to emerge.

"Patiently".

RE: mastodon.social/@sarahjamielew

I'm glad I've managed to get the same level of adblocking in #qutebrowser than in #firefox

Look i'm not going to jump ship yet, I've been using firefox since version number 1.0 but every month or so seems to add another nail in the coffin.

@kf
Qutebrowser does have some real problems unfortunately. Many GitHub pages being one of them.

If you like #qutebrowser you might also like #Nyxt.

Getting back into #qutebrowser... Have been on and off it for many years now, especially back in my vim days, but now that I'm an #emacs guy things have been a bit more complicated. Luckily a bunch of other people have done significant work creating emacs-like configs for the browser, so it's been pretty straight-forward getting it to work the way my current muscle memory dictates...

Finally did my upgrade on my notebook today grrr
And I noticed that
#firefox/#librewolf still has this weird issue here that uploading images results in a mess of pixels, which looks corrupted. Posted this on #qutebrowser instead. #FreeBSD

I've found the #qutebrowser "freezing" issue is affecting version 3.6.1 and 3.6.3 on both NixOS and my Arch distrobox. It's a weird one becaus the browser itself wont' freeze just certain sites. Also the keyring issue is only affecting SwayWM? on Niri qutebrowsers qute-bitwarden works fine, no errors. I dont' know this is a weird one.

not sure what's going on with #qutebrowser recently but it's taken a nose dive as far as performance goes. constantly crashing now, bitwarden pw management is spotty at best if it works at all. issues with keyrings. not sure what's going on over there but sigh...back on #firefox for now. Tried #floorp again but that's even worse.

@bobulous Oh I see.
But do you use vim bindings for any other software other than editors?

I use a lot of vim bindings out of my editor. In pdf reader ( #zathura ), browser ( #qutebrowser , #vimium ) music player, etc.
I’m afraid if that will conflict with Kokoune.

And are there Kokoune bindings for popular softwares?
