Add more browsers #66

Open sysdbugfactory opened 2 years ago

sysdbugfactory commented 2 years ago

IMHO these results would be more useful if the tests included privacy oriented browsers as a comparison with vanilla browsers.

here are a few: waterfox: https://www.waterfox.net/download/ librewolf: https://librewolf-community.gitlab.io/ iron: https://www.srware.net/iron/#downloads iridium: https://iridiumbrowser.de/ min: https://minbrowser.org/ dooble: https://textbrowser.github.io/dooble/ epic: https://www.epicbrowser.com/ ungoogled chromium: https://ungoogled-software.github.io/

These could also make the list despite not being privacy focused otter: https://otter-browser.org/ SeaMonkey: https://www.seamonkey-project.org/ vivaldi: https://vivaldi.com/

Vivaldi released an iOS browser

More suggested browsers: You : https://you.com/ Waterfox : https://www.waterfox.net/ DOT HQ : https://www.dothq.org/en-US Basilisk : https://www.basilisk-browser.org/ Walkon : https://www.falkon.org/ Tempest : https://www.tempest.com/

isnt you.com only a search engine?

Most search engines have a mobile browser for stupid reasons

There's no point including proprietary closed source browsers at all unless they're really prevalent like Chrome and Safari.

That is because there is no "search engine" implementation. The search engine is part of the browser.

Implementing a browser for Android is easy if your rendering engine is based on Chromium because there is Android's WebView that you can build off of. So then, that is essentially implementing the "search" aspect.

The other option is to set up a widget-only app that implements a replacement search bar widget instead of the default Google search widget. And hand-over the actual web request to either the WebView or the default browser but I do not think that is worth the effort. Also, I am not sure whether it is practical to only implement the search bar widget and no app. It might be worthwhile to implement the whole browser rather than only the search bar widget. But I do not know how much of a maintenance overhead that might be.

There's no point including proprietary closed source browsers at all unless they're really prevalent like Chrome and Safari.

Other than you.com, Tempest and Arc, most of the other suggestions are based on Firefox. I was able to track the source code for the following :

Tempest looks like it is based on Chromium. So, it might have an interesting life, unless it goes out of the way and implement something that is drastic like what Vivaldi did. But now, most of Vivaldi's features are in pretty much all browsers these days. Vivaldi is not as appealing as it used to be when it came out.

Arc Browser, on the other hand, is implementing some innovative features. It has re-imagined web browsing in a modern and innovative way. I think Arc has a future like Brave ahead.

Here's a complete list so far. I tried not to include any browsers that were dead, archived on Github, or did not have a browser anywhere on the linked page. If this list doesn't have one that should be included or I have messed something up please let me know.

We could also compare downloads form the play stores (for iOS and Android at least) UC browser is so popular in some regions that it's even in the top three according to cloudflare, I looked through most regions and it's the only top browser that's missing. Up to 3% in Pakistan for example. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.UCMobile.intl

After no updates from Bromite many of bromite users have moved on to "Cromite" which is updated to latest within 2-3 days. You can also add Vanadium but only GrapheneOS users can install Vanadium.

I am against that. IE is end of life and should not be considered by users. I am not fully aware of bromites situation but if it's developedment is halted then bromite should get hidden imo.

I dont think we should stop including browsers imo, but there should be default filter for browsers who didnt get update in lets say last half year? But it should be only the default filter, that you can disable

android : kiwi browser, lemur . https://lemurbrowser.com/new_version_test/app/en.html . https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lemurbrowser.exts&hl=en_US () and isnt DDG a webview browser ? so what about adding others webview ones to compare like fulguris , lightning. (https://f-droid.org/pt_BR/packages/acr.browser.lightning/ )_ and even testing those with others webviews like cromite webview . and also those webview browsers maybe the webview version used when testing should be specified.

for windows. i also vote for floorp as its the fastest gekco browser for now .
https://floorp.app/ and adding terimnal ones like links2 . and also the goana based to have more diversity : pale moon , k-meleon . http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?19,154431

linux : elinks (like links but with tabs) , w3m

How about tracking existing and already mentioned browsers in a wiki page, then you could create a PR rule/template to check there first. Maybe that can resolve the "add this" spam
