I was a user, I even recommended it to people, but since the discovery of this issue I feel uneasy to continue using/recommending it. That dev response is appalling.
Wow, thanks for bringing this to light. I just installed Zen and started contributing to it, it's sad to see this. What browser do you use now?
I got back to Firefox, I’ll try Floorp next, just to see how it goes.
Why would you be recommending a alpha/beta software to people? It just went stable last week, and I still wouldn't recommend it based on how young the project is.
Recommends people to use alpha/beta software. is surprised it has alpha/beta issues.
I honestly feel uneasy trusting any advice you have.
Wow, harsh.
It’s not like this is an oopsie bug, this is a major vuln knowingly indroduced by the dev, and their response is somewhat shocking.
I recommend plenty of alpha/beta software to people, of course with the disclaimer that it’s not done yet, but sure, feel free to not trust me at all, stranger :)
For the record, I did not encounter major bugs in my ~1 month of usage.
