Can there be a new release tag made that adds full support for QT webengine?

Emdek commented 4 years ago

@travankor, what exactly do you mean by "full support"? That "Experimental" status of the backend? It's called that way since it's subpar compared to QtWebKit in terms of integration level… Sadly right now you can only choose between better integration and better standards support. :-/

Interesting, so the problem is with QTWebengine? I prefer QTWebkit myself, but webengine has more security updates at this point and is maintained by a large team. QTWebkit is still using insecure webkit from 2016 :-/

GTKWebkit is okay, but I don't really like the GTK browsers so much because of GTK.

btw, qtWebEngine isn't passed security checks for blobs and telemetry spyware injections ..., as it is a chromium core.

and qtWebKit is qite up to date, the last one is from 2020 spring..
