Can you share some info about it? I don't get any info on the page on codeberg without reading the code. What engine does it use?

Made with Gtk4, WebKitGTK, libadwaita and Flatpak.

WebKit based, which is interesting. I don't have much experience with WebKit on Linux.

thank you. I must've been sleeping.

WebKit

Gecko is very difficult to adapt to standalone apps and servo isn’t ready yet. what would you rather they use? Chromium?

why can't I see my comment when I browse lemmy.ml without being logged in?

The post got upvoted so someone must have been able to see it.

There is even another post from someone on lemmy.zip

lol, I was doing exactly the same, mostly because the gnome app for it (webapp-manager) does not do one thing I badly want : open all non-app links in the default browser and not on instances of itself. Also, I love the webkitgtk project and this allows me to give it an usage.
I will give a look at your project, I think is better contribute to it than have two (or more) projects doing the same 😜

Does it support socks proxy for individual web apps?
