in ♥️ with linux

It's not just Linux that has a browser problem, but somehow the whole world. Browsers are becoming increasingly complex with lots of features that I don't need.

I just want to view websites.

GNOME Web (formerly known as Epiphany) is a wonderfully minimalist browser.

It's not perfect:

There are no extensions (at least not via dconf settings, and even then they don't work well), but I don't really need any.

It has a built-in ad blocker that can only be customized via dconf, but that's okay too.

It's just a totally uncluttered browsing experience.

The only thing I miss is SpeedDial. I haven't been able to do without it since Opera 8.

But there's HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. And thanks to the AI correcting my amateurish code, I now have SpeedDial as my start page.

If you want to take a look, you can find it on Codeberg: Tools for GNOME

The following features are included:

• Detection of whether a search term or a URL will be entered
• Search with Kagi (can be easily changed)
• Separate URL.js – enter the URL and image there
• Navigation with arrow keys
