Min Browser Muffles the Web's Noise
|
||||
============================================================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
[Min][1] is a Web browser with a minimal design that provides speedy operation with simple features.
|
||||
|
||||
When it comes to software design, "minimal" does not mean low functionality or undeveloped potential. If you like minimal distraction tools for your text editor and note-taking applications, that same comfort appeal is evident in the Min browser.
|
||||
|
||||
I mostly use Google Chrome, Chromium and Firefox on my desktops and laptop computers. I am well invested in their add-on functionality, so I can access all the specialty services that get me through my long sessions in researching and working online.
|
||||
|
||||
However, I sometimes prefer a fast, uncluttered alternative on-ramp to the Internet. With multiple projects in progress, I can amass a wide collection of open tabs or even separate windows of the powerhouse browsers in no time.
|
||||
|
||||
I have tried other browser options with little success. The alternatives usually have their own sets of distracting add-ons and features that tend to pull me into more off-task behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
The Min browser does not do that. It is a GitHub-sourced Web browser that is easy to use, and it keeps the typical interruptions from distracting me.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The Min browser is minimal-design Web browser that provides speedy operation with simple features. Just don't expect to take its tour any time soon.
|
||||
|
||||
### What It Does
|
||||
|
||||
The Min browser comes in versions for Debian Linux variants, Windows and Mac machines. It can not compete with the functionality available in the mainstream cross-platform Web browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
It does not have to compete, though. Its claim to fame very well might be supplementing rather than replacing them.
|
||||
|
||||
One big reason for this is its built-in ad blocking capability. Out of the box, the Min browser needs no configuration or hunting for compatible third-party apps to do end-runs around ads.
|
||||
|
||||
In Edit/Preferences, you have three options to click/unclick for content blocking. It's easy to modify blocking tactics to suit your preferences. The Block Trackers and Ads option uses EasyList and EasyPrivacy. If nothing else, keep this option checked.
|
||||
|
||||
You also can block scripts and block images. Doing both maximizes the website loading speeds and really ramps up your protection against rogue code attacks.
|
||||
|
||||
### Have Search Your Way
|
||||
|
||||
If you spend considerable time doing online research, you will adore the way Min handles searching. It is a top-notch feature.
|
||||
|
||||
Search functionality is accessible right in the browser's URL bar. Min utilizes search engine DuckDuckGo and Wikipedia entries. You can enter search queries directly into the Web address field.
|
||||
|
||||
This approach saves time since you do not have to go to the search engine window first. A nice bonus is the ability to search your bookmarks.
|
||||
|
||||
In the Edit/Preferences menu, choose your choice for default search engine. The list includes DuckDuckGo, Google, Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, Wikipedia and Yandex.
|
||||
|
||||
Try making DuckDuckGo your default search engine. Min is built around that option but does not impose it on you.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Min browser's search functionality is part of the URL bar. Min utilizes search engine DuckDuckGo and Wikipedia entries. You can enter search queries directly into the Web address window.
|
||||
|
||||
The search bar displays answers to your questions very rapidly. It uses information from DuckDuckGo including Wikipedia entries, a calculator and more.
|
||||
|
||||
It offers quick snippets, answers and Web suggestions. It sort of substitutes for not being in a Google-based environment.
|
||||
|
||||
### Navigating Aids
|
||||
|
||||
Min lets you jump to any site quickly with fuzzy search. It throws suggestions at you almost immediately.
|
||||
|
||||
I like the way the tabs open next to the current tab. You do not have to set this preference. It is there by default with no other choice, but it makes sense.
|
||||
|
||||
[
|
||||
|
||||
][2]One of Min's really cool operations is the ability to organize tabs into Tasks that you can search anytime. (click image to enlarge)
|
||||
|
||||
Tabs you have not clicked on for a while dim. This lets you concentrate on your current task without distractions.
|
||||
|
||||
Min does not need an add-on tool to keep numerous tabs under control. The browser displays a list of tags and lets you split them into groups.
|
||||
|
||||
### Stay Focused
|
||||
|
||||
Min has an optional Focus Mode hidden in the View menu. When enabled, it hides all tabs except the one you have opened. You must return to the menu to turn off Focus Mode before you can open new tabs.
|
||||
|
||||
The Tasks feature also helps you stay focused. You can create tasks from the File menu or with Control+Shift+N. If you want to open a new tab, you can select that option in the Files menu or use Control+T.
|
||||
|
||||
Call the new task whatever fits your style. I like being able to organize and display as a group all the tabs associated with a work project or a specific portion of my research. I can recall the entire list at any time to easily and quickly find where I was in my browsing adventure.
|
||||
|
||||
Another neat feature is found under the paragraph alignment icon in the tab area. Click it to enable Reading Mode. This mode saves the article for future reference and strips away everything on the page so you can focus on the task of reading.
|
||||
|
||||
### Not Perfect
|
||||
|
||||
The Min browser is not a perfect alternative to high-powered, feature-bloated alternatives. It does have a few glaring weaknesses that developers have taken too long to rectify.
|
||||
|
||||
For instance, It lacks a solid developer website stocked with support forums and detailed user guides. That may be partly due to its home being GitHub rather than an independent developer website. Still, it's a weakness that is glaring to new users.
|
||||
|
||||
Without website support, users are forced to struggle with lists of readme files and hard-to-follow directories on GitHub. You can access them from the Min browser Help menu -- but that's not much help.
|
||||
|
||||
A case in point is the Welcome to Min splash screen that loads from the menu when you launch the browser. It displays two buttons. One says "Start Browsing." The other says "Take a Tour." Neither one works.
|
||||
|
||||
However, you can start browsing by clicking on the menu bar at the top of the Min window. There is no workaround for the missing tour, though.
|
||||
|
||||
### Bottom Line
|
||||
|
||||
Min is not a full-featured Web browser with bells and whistles galore. It is not designed for add-ons and many other features you typically use in well-established Web browsers. However, Min serves an important niche purpose by offering speed and distraction-free browsing.
|
||||
|
||||
The more I use the Min browser, the more productive it is for me -- but be wary when you first start to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
Min is not complicated or confusing -- it is just quirky. You have to play around with it to discover how it works.
|
||||
|
||||
### Want to Suggest a Review?
|
||||
|
||||
Is there a Linux software application or distro you'd like to suggest for review? Something you love or would like to get to know?
|
||||
|
||||
Please [email your ideas to me][3], and I'll consider them for a future Linux Picks and Pans column.

使用 Min 浏览器消除 web 噪音
|
||||
============================================================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
[Min][1] 是一款具有最小设计的 web 浏览器，可以通过简单的功能提供快速操作。
|
||||
|
||||
当涉及到软件设计时，“最小”并不意味着潜在的低级功能或未开发。如果你喜欢文本编辑器和笔记程序中的最小防干扰工具，那么你会在 Min 浏览器中有同样舒适的感觉。
|
||||
|
||||
我大多在我的台式机和笔记本电脑上使用 Google Chrome、Chromium和 Firefox。我研究了很多它们的附加功能，所以我可以在我的长期研究和工作中可以访问所有的专业服务。
|
||||
|
||||
然而，我有时喜欢一个快速、整洁的替代品来上网。随着多个项目的进行，我可以很快打开一大批选项卡甚至是独立窗口的强大浏览器。
|
||||
|
||||
我试过其他浏览器选项但很少成功。替代品通常有自己的一套分散注意力的附件和功能，它们会让我开小差。
|
||||
|
||||
Min 浏览器不这样做。它是一个易于使用并在 GitHub 开源的 web浏览器，它不会使我分心。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Min 浏览器是最小化浏览器，提供了简单的功能以及迅速的操作。只是不要指望马上上手
|
||||
|
||||
### 它做些什么
|
||||
|
||||
Min 浏览器提供了 Debian Linux 版本、Windows 和 Mac 机器的版本。它不能与主流跨平台 web 浏览器中的可用功能竞争。
|
||||
|
||||
它不必竞争，但是它的声誉非常好，它可能是补充而不是取代它们。
|
||||
|
||||
其中一个主要原因是其内置的广告拦截功能。开箱即用的 Min 浏览器不需要配置或寻找兼容的第三方应用程序来拦截广告。
|
||||
|
||||
在 Edit/Preferences 中，关于内容阻止你有三个选项可以点击/取消点击。它很容易修改屏蔽策略来适应你的喜好。阻止跟踪器和广告选项使用 EasyList 和 EasyPrivacy。 如果没有其他原因，请保持此选项选中。
|
||||
|
||||
你还可以阻止脚本和图像。这样做可以最大限度地提高网站加载速度，并真正提高你对恶意代码的防御。
|
||||
|
||||
### 按你的方式搜索
|
||||
|
||||
如果你花费大量时间在搜索上，你会喜欢 Min 处理搜索的方式。这是一个顶级的功能。
|
||||
|
||||
可以直接在浏览器的网址栏中访问搜索功能。Min 使用搜索引擎有 DuckDuckGo 和维基百科。你可以直接在 web 地址栏中输入搜索查询。
|
||||
|
||||
这种方法很节省时间，因为你不必先进入搜索引擎窗口。 一个额外的好处是可以搜索你的书签。
|
||||
|
||||
在 Edit/Preferences 菜单中，选择默认的搜索引擎。该列表包括 DuckDuckGo、Google、Bing、Yahoo、Baidu、Wikipedia 和 Yandex。
|
||||
|
||||
尝试将 DuckDuckGo 作为默认搜索引擎。 Min 默认使用这个选项，但它不会强加给你。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Min 浏览器的搜索功能是 URL 栏的一部分。Min 使用 DuckDuckGo 和维基百科作为搜索引擎。你可以直接在 web 地址栏中输入搜索查询。
|
||||
|
||||
搜索栏会非常快速地显示你问题的答案。它会使用 DuckDuckGo 的信息，包括维基百科条目、计算器以及更多。
|
||||
|
||||
它能提供快速片段、答案和网络建议。它是在基于 Google 环境的一个替代。
|
||||
|
||||
### 导航辅助
|
||||
|
||||
Min 允许你使用模糊搜索快速跳转到任何网站。它几乎能立即向你抛出建议。
|
||||
|
||||
我喜欢在当前标签旁边打开标签的方式。你不必设置此选项。它在默认情况下没有其他选择，但它是有道理的。
|
||||
|
||||
[
|
||||
|
||||
][2]
|
||||
Min 的一个很酷的操作是将标签整理到任务中，这样你可以随时搜索。（点击图片放大）
|
||||
|
||||
你不用一直点击标签。这使你可以专注于当前的任务，而不会分心。
|
||||
|
||||
Min 不需要附加工具来控制多个标签。浏览器会显示标签列表，并允许你将它们分组。
|
||||
|
||||
### 保持专注
|
||||
|
||||
Min 在“视图”菜单中隐藏了一个可选的“聚焦模式”。启用后，除了你打开的选项卡外，它会隐藏所有选项卡。 你必须返回到菜单以关闭“聚焦模式”，然后才能打开新选项卡。
|
||||
|
||||
任务功能还可以帮助你保持专注。你可以从“文件”菜单或使用 Ctrl+Shift+N 创建任务。如果要打开新选项卡，可以在“文件”菜单中选择该选项，或使用 Control+T。
|
||||
|
||||
调用符合你的风格的新任务。我喜欢能够组织与显示与工作项目或与我的研究的特定部分相关联的所有标签。我可以在任何时间召回整个列表，以轻松快速的方式找到我的浏览记录。
|
||||
|
||||
另一个整洁的功能是在 tab 区域可以找到段落对齐按钮。单击它启用阅读模式。此模式会保存文章以供将来参考，并删除页面上的一切，以便你可以专注于阅读任务。
|
||||
|
||||
### 并不完美
|
||||
|
||||
Min 浏览器并不是强大的，功能丰富的完美替代品。它有一些明显的弱点，开发人员花了太长时间而不能改正。
|
||||
|
||||
例如，它缺乏一个支持论坛和详细用户指南的开发人员网站。可能部分原因是它的官网在 GitHub，而不是一个独立的开发人员网站。尽管如此，对新用户而言这是一个弱点。
|
||||
|
||||
没有网站支持，用户被迫在 GitHub 上寻找自述文件和各种目录列表。你也可以在 Min 浏览器的帮助菜单中访问它们 - 但这没有太多帮助。
|
||||
|
||||
一个例子是当你启动浏览器时，屏幕会显示欢迎界面。它会显示两个按钮，一个人是 “Start Browsing”，另一个是 “Take a Tour.”。但是没有一个按钮可以使用
|
||||
|
||||
但是，你可以通过单击 Min 窗口顶部的菜单栏开始浏览。但是，缺少导览还没有解决办法。
|
||||
|
||||
### 底线
|
||||
|
||||
Min 并不是一个有完整功能的 web 浏览器。它不是为通常在成熟的 web 浏览器中有的插件和其他许多功能而设计的。然而，Min 通过提供速度和免打扰来达到它重要的目的。
|
||||
|
||||
我越使用 Min 浏览器，它对我来说越有效率 - 但是当你第一次使用它时要小心。
|
||||
|
||||
Min 并不复杂或让人困惑 - 它只是有点古怪。你必须要玩弄一下才能明白它如何使用。
|
||||
|
||||
### 想要提建议么？
|
||||
|
||||
有没有一个你想提议 Linux 程序或发行版？有没有你爱的或者想要了解的？
|
||||
|
||||
