  1. PSA for users ( based): we need to use this option to enable support in `~/.config/qutebrowser/autoconfig.yaml` (for example, if you're a @fedora package maintainer and don't want to have to keep re-logging into Fedora websites):

    ```
    qt.args:
    global:
    - auth-server-allowlist=*<domain>
    ```

    Used to be `auth-server-whitelist` but changed at some point.

  2. PSA for #Qutebrowser users (#Qt6 #Webengine based): we need to use this option to enable #kerberos support in `~/.config/qutebrowser/autoconfig.yaml` (for example, if you're a @fedora package maintainer and don't want to have to keep re-logging into Fedora websites):

    ```
    qt.args:

  5. If you're using a based browser like me (@qutebrowser or ), 's website may cause issues because they "only support the last 3 releases" of most browsers. Luckily, they use the user agent to detect the browser. So, a workaround is to use something like this, with a new enough version for the version:

    Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) QtWebEngine/6.8.2 Chrome/132.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

  7. A Brief Embedded Browser Expo.

    As part of my continuing exploration of embedded browsers, a hands-on look at three nice examples: Chromium Embedded Framework, Qt WebEngine and Sailfish WebView.

    What features do they support? What do their APIs look like? What are they like to use in practice?

    And what is an embedded browser anyway?

  8. #Verso is a "demo" #web browser built upon #Servo, a #rust based #webengine, originally made by #Mozilla.

    I hope this project, which is still at an infant stage, can be the new foundation of a plethora of new #opensource and #libre browsers because they will not have to deal with behemoth code such as in #Firefox for instance!

    Let us pray all together! 🙏
