Hi,
Do you have any specific feature requests? I'm planning bookmark sync
support, but other than that I think we're largely feature-complete.
I was just running it now to try to get a list of some of its
missing
features, such as a JavaScript debugging console,
Right click -> Inspect Element -> Debugger, it's the same one that's in
every WebKit browser.
But this is a very advanced feature. If you're digging around into the
JavaScript debugger, you're more than capable of installing Firefox or
Chrome or whatever browser you prefer to work with.
but it quite
literally was crashing on almost any operation except clicking on a
URL link. This is a Wayland Workstation on Rawhide.
So yeah, really not feeling that this is ready.
Can you please file a bug report, or give me a link if you have and I
missed it? It works great in Fedora 23. In my GNOME jhbuild environment
there are some serious drawing failures due to a bug in GTK+ 3.19,
which a GTK+ developer is investigating, but I'm not aware of any
issues that could cause frequent crashes.
Wayland support is mostly complete. We are missing accelerated
compositing (affects performance on low-end hardware) and clipboard
support (copy/paste, that's a big problem) when running under Wayland.
Both are about half-completed, but I cannot say when they will land.
