Of all foss browsers I tried , Kiwi browser is the worst I'm coming back to Fennic , let's see what have changed since the last time I used it

It is never up-to-date and lags months behind chromium releases. As of today. The last update was on ~~Aug 13 2023.~~ April 24 2024. It's currently Oct 2 2024. I would steer clear if anyone is still using it today. Firefox is much better.

You mean Kiwi browser ? Last update on both GitHub and Google Play was on April 2024

I'm using Fennec now and it's so buggy

[–] limerod@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago

My bad. I rechecked and I was browsing by tags. The latest release was in April 2024.

I'm using firefox from playstore and its been fine for the most part. Perhaps try Firefox from playstore to see if it works any differently for you.

Kiwi was definitely rough last time I tried it

It's not foss but I'm pretty happy with Vivaldi. You can try waterfox or iceraven though

Tried it many times before but it consumes more resources than brave , especially internet data
