Falkon browser fast for Windows and Linux

Falkon browser is a KDE Web browser that uses the QtWebEngine rendering engine, previously known as QupZilla.

The purpose of the project is to create a light browser that is available on all major platforms.Falkon browser

The poject initially started only for educational purposes. But from the beginning, Falkon has evolved into a browser with many features.

Falkon browser has all the standard features you expect from a web browser. Includes bookmarks, (και στην πλευρική ) και καρτέλες. Ο περιηγητής έχει ενεργοποιημένο από προεπιλογή τον αποκλεισμό διαφημίσεων αφού διαθέτει ενσωματωμένο το AdBlock .

The first version of QupZilla was released in December of 2010 and developed with Python with PyQt4 bindings. After some versions, QupZilla has been rewritten from the start in C ++ with the Qt Framework. The first public release was 1.0.0-b4.

Until 2.0, QupZilla used QtWebKit. But QtWebKit is no longer used and all new versions use QtWebEngine.

From version 3.0 onwards QupZilla is not developed and the released under the name Falkon from the KDE project.

So basically the Falkon browser and QupZilla are the same , and the rebranding aims to improve impressions.

Once you use the browser, you'll be surprised. As mentioned before, it has Adblocking, spell check, it's simple and very fast.

The Falkon browser during my tests was stable, it did not display and in general, it worked fine.

However, as a new project, it does not have a track record that demonstrates the development team's commitment to security updates and patches. I hope that with the takeover of the browser by the KDE project, growth will continue steadily.
It is worthwhile to try it.
