I like Konqueror. It has gotten too little attention. But still it is, IMO, better the then google chromium crap. Does not crack on my privacy. And sometimes, when all fails, well, it happens that konqueror still works.
Firefox does not crack on your privacy any more that Konquerer AFAIK. Yes, Chrome is bad with always asking Google if it can fart. Either of these are browsers that work for most of the web which is something Konqueror cannot claim.
Question is: why does it bother you. Uninstall it. There are AFAIK no dependencies that forces you to use it.
I do not even install it for years already. The thing is: user installs *the* KDE web browser. It fails to render their favorite web page. That's a bad KDE experience because it is the KDE web browser. Compared to that GNOME used to have GNOME branded Gecko based Galeon. They figured they cannot keep up maintaining it so they just dropped it and nobody heard of it for years - see the difference there?
Thanks
Michal Well, one could then opt to not install it from default but put a pattern. Still, who knows Konqueror appreciate it. Just because a webside doesn't render I have a bad KDE experience? Well, IF a browser is so important for the identification of a DE, then this calls for immediate brush up and polish of of Konqueror, the most important piece of software in KDE? See, IMO, everything, in a harmonic and integrated way, is part of a DE. Thus, it is not by criticizing the surplus and the richness that you are going to tackle the problem. FF with me is so crippled and defended by noscript, selfdestructing cookies, https everywhere, ublock etc that sometimes invasive websites I can simply not open. So with Konqueror that nearly always work. Very few times I needed to go down

What KDE needs is to close old and unnerving bugs. When you open Kmail the side bar does not have the right size. I am still on kmail4 but: kmail3 was simply perfect, did not loose a mail in years. Did not have problem. With 4 they really screwed it up but finally repaired it at the end. However by reading the bugzilla of KDE this stupid little bug is still there in 5. That makes a lifetime of about ..... 6-8 years for that annoying bug? Another "superbug" is the one appearing with notification sounds. Bug 348414 the mythical "Crash in notification" with a felt 250 duplicates. Still proudly crashing. It does not seem that available software is the problem. Untouched bugs are. And maybe also unclear responsibilities for the different software parts. But I really do not understand the current argumentation against KDE. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
