Floorp also seems to be dropping support for workspaces in the near future..

If y'all are mad about this, look into Midori. It's a fork of florp and I think it's better, too.

Is it open source?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

As far as I know, yes.

What does it even do better? I remember using it right after they redid it and it was just a 1/1 copy of Floorp

I tested the speed on both and Midori was a lot faster.

Still going to use the heck out if it. It's super useful in my workflow and firefox at heart. I want to be more productive, not poorductive on some weird purist idealism.
