Pure chromium is alright, but you really shouldn't lick any compound containing chromium(VI): they're highly carcinogenic.

Ah, I stand corrected.

  • DAITA adds noise to your traffic, in order to prrvent AI packet analysis. However, most people don't need this, and it limits your server options as well as increasing your bandwidth usage. Leave it off unless you need it.
  • Multihop routes your traffic through two Mullvad servers, in order to further obscure your IP address. Turn it on for added privacy, unless you have problems as a result.
  • Local network sharing means you can still connect to devices on your home network while using Mullvad VPN. This includes things like networked printers, network attached storage, and the web interface on your router. Turn on unless you're sure you don't need it.
  • API access just checks to make sure you can connect to Mullvad at all. The API is what gives you the list of servers and provides your computer with the connection info. Have a look if you're interested, but you shouldn't need to change anything.
    • If you are on a hostile network, this part of the settings also lets you enable bridges, which can help to circumvent local VPN blocks.

Same box as Links, I think; or maybe the same box as Servo or Ladybird would fit better...

Neither is Servo.

Chaotic good because it's an entire (almost functional) engine built from scratch, and without any corporate backing.

Blink has the dominant market share, though, and by a long way. It's almost a monoculture.

[–] hellfire103 6 points 1 month ago

That's a relief.

It's effectively Chromium.

WebKit is neutral. Remember the sheer amount if browsers using WebKitGTK, and even more that used to use QtWebKit.

[–] hellfire103 2 points 1 month ago

(The engine itself is fine though)

Going from lawful to chaotic, good to evil, we have:

  • Gecko (Firefox, Seamonkey, and derivatives)
  • Servo
  • Libweb (Ladybird)
  • Links2 (as well as ELinks and other forks)
  • WebKit (used in a lot of stuff, namely Safari and GNOME Web)
  • Goanna (Pale Moon and Basilisk)
  • QtWebEngine (Konqueror, Falkon, and qutebrowser)
  • Blink (Chromium, Brave, and derivatives)
  • Trident (Internet Explorer, old versions of Maxthon, old versions of Avant, and any homemade browser created with Visual Studio).

I've just started learning Cymraeg on Duolingo, but I have a question. Should I try and use a Welsh accent when I'm speaking the language, or would it be better to use my English accent (which is sort of casual RP with a hint of Northumbrian)?
