Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    How about webkit-gtk

    [–] backhdlp@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 points 9 months ago (2 children)

    Is that chromium too by any chance?

    It's Chromium's non-Google cousin.

    If that piques your interest, be aware that it's mostly Apple's baby.

    And to swing back positive again, it's open-source because Apple didn't create it in the first place and they're bound by GPL to keep it that way.

    Finally, a useful fun fact: WebKit GTK often comes with a MiniBrowser program that is a bare-bones web browser wrapped around the engine.

    It isn't symlinked in /usr/bin or anywhere like that, but it does work as an emergency secondary browser if something breaks your main one.

    It's usually found somewhere like /usr/lib/{OS type}/webkitgtk-{version}/MiniBrowser

    On my machine it's /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.1/MiniBrowser

    Oh right, webkit (I seem to be bad at understanding the words I'm reading). I love that most modern web engines are just forks of KHTML

    I've never emerged chromium, proud waterfox user :)
