      Midori is fast! :eek:

      Had some layout deficiencies having maximised the window (on this site - first one). (Initially the app opens in a rather narrow window.)

        Imported bookmarks from Opera's .adr.
        It's a mess - no folders, no nothing. Search's working though - dropdown full lot of "opportunities" typing in the address bar... 💣

          Ah! I found the folders.
          A bit - teeny-weeny bit - messy still, because the order's different, and till I visit them, no favicons, and the interface might be either - ehem, different, or to get used to it.
          Still, no trouble with movie except that - well, might be that site's overloaded with stuff, there exist so unmanageable sites - :XP: .

            Hi again!
            Checked somewhere "there's a new version" - official site, but the question is, file name ends with .tar.bz2 - what the heck is it?
            :rolleyes:

              .tar.bz2 is a standard Linux archive format, comparable to a .zip on Windows. Of course, that probably means the files in the archive are for Linux also.

                Like - universal? 😕

                Dug a bit more there, Steve, and this strange thing: they have two streams/branches (with different digits after the first naught but adjacent), the version I have seems to fall into the one making an impression of being a developer stream or something, but the strange thing is that there is this history, and in this succession my 0.5.8 goes first or about - then goes 0.5.4, etc., .5.7 then .5.9, then whatever.
                🙂 :party:

                  Midori on Linux has been around a while, it is a webkit-based browser with a UI built on QT. As QT is cross-platform I suppose they must be able to migrate the whole browser to Windows... but I never really used the Linux version. I can't claim it will be any different from Chromium or Opera or Vivaldi.

                  Well, as far as I can tell, it doesn't resemble Google Chrome much. But it does remind me of some good old Opera though:) I installed it with all the suggested bundled plugins and extensions though... I mean it does have features resembling our good old Opera, yeah:) Kind of not fully developed in places. But I suppose it could get further developed: I registered on and took a look at their support site.

                    What on earth is this thing, Steve?

                    front.facetz.net wants to save an HTML5 database.

                    It's an "Allow/deny" bar on a certain site. Second here so far: first time the page wasn't interesting, and I closed the tab; now I wanna read - what should I do?
                    Ah! nah, I don't. :devil:

                      Modern browsers allow web apps to store data on your computer, sometimes so you can have it while offline later but also sometimes just because they want to store more data than would fit into cookies. Obviously the default setting in most browsers is not to ask, unless you've set the browser to ask about cookies. I can't tell you about that site specifically though.

                        So you mean... I think it's good.

                        It's like local storage, isn't it?
                        Well, it's good it asks. Because if I'm not gonna use that site in a foreseeable future, then - why store crap, right?

                          FWIW, in Olde Opera (which I have set to ask permission for local or persistent storage), I routinely reject the request. I've yet to have any problems resulting from the rejections - the sites have always displayed fine for me.

                            Speedtest.net is a bit screwed in Midori.
                            Though the speed is o'k (if it depends): Midori speedtest.

                              Java no longer works in any Chromium-based browsers.

                              Dave, what about other WebKit? And what about SlimJet?

                                Java plugin is being deprecated by Oracle itself.

                                  I see an HTML5 speed test over on Slashdot.org; perhaps try that.

                                    This?

                                    Well, that "cursor mishap" might have something to do with such objects' rendering on zoom in Midori.
                                    That browser crashes considerably. Not too scary so far though, however a seemingly "runtime error" occured once I noticed, perhaps...

                                    (Results: 244, 14, 11, 0.5%.
                                    What does it measure, again? ("Gaming" "not recommended"? 😕 ))

                                        Latest stable version is 1.2, there should be another snapshot for 1.3 shortly.

                                          Is it only I who have problems with Vivaldi's implementation of tab stacking? I don't like it all, it makes tab management worse. I want it as Opera 12 had it. 😞
