I don't know why, but I was unaware that KDE has a decent web browser. I was familiar with Konqueror, but was really not a fan.

Having a good time messing with Falkon atm!

It is a browser that runs on any environment - some distributions just
ship it together with KDE.

Here you can see one:

I just see that it hasn't been updated for a year, not good for a
browser.

It's been 3 months, not too bad. Let's see if they stick with it.

I found a screenshot at the gitlab repository:

https://invent.kde.org/network/falkon
https://www.falkon.org/images/screenshot.png

There have been at least 368 code commits to the Falkon repository
since January 2022. It seems under active development and automated
maintenance.

$ git log | grep "Date:" | head -n 384 | grep -v 2021 | wc -l
368

The latest commit was yesterday:

$ git log | grep "Date:" | head -n 1
Date: Sun Sep 24 01:32:57 2023 +0000

There are about 227 commits so far this year.

$ git log | grep "Date:" | head -n 384 | grep 2023 | wc -l
227

Maybe they were not pushing out their internal commits timely when this
thread was started. I don't see anything seriously security sensitive.

I've been using Falkon on my laptop for a while now. It works quite well!

I do prefer palemoon on my desktops as it just works with more sites.
