As a noob, I think multithread is better because it uses separate proccesses (like Google Chrome's tabs), so if one crashes, the whole browser is yet working with the other tabs

For the tabs I am not sure how pyqt5 is handling it... It might be worth looking into it.

For this precise issue I was referring to this part : https://github.com/rllola/ZeronetBrowser/blob/master/launch.py

I start zeronet inside an other process and create the browser inside the main one process. We now have 2 processes running and I just want to be sure it is the proper way of doing it.
