Viper Browser: A Lightweight Qt5-based Web Browser With A Focus on Privacy and Minimalism
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
_**Brief: Viper Browser is a Qt-based browser that offers a simple user experience keeping privacy in mind.**_
|
||||
|
||||
While the majority of the popular browsers run on top of Chromium, unique alternatives like [Firefox][1], [Beaker Browser][2], and some other [chrome alternatives][3] should not cease to exist.
|
||||
|
||||
Especially, considering Google’s recent potential thought of stripping [Google Chrome-specific features from Chromium][4] giving an excuse of abuse.
|
||||
|
||||
In the look-out for more Chrome alternatives, I came across an interesting project “[Viper Browser][5]” as per our reader’s suggestion on [Mastodon][6].
|
||||
|
||||
### Viper Browser: An Open-Source Qt5-based Browser
|
||||
|
||||
_**Note**: Viper Browser is fairly a new project with a couple of contributors. It lacks certain features which I’ll be mentioning as you read on._
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
Viper is an interesting web browser that focuses on being a powerful yet lightweight option while utilizing [QtWebEngine][8].
|
||||
|
||||
QtWebEngine borrows the code from Chromium but it does not include the binaries and services that connect to the Google platform.
|
||||
|
||||
I spent some time using it and performing some daily browsing activities and I must say that I’m quite interested. Not just because it is something simple to use (how complicated a browser can be), but it also focuses on enhancing your privacy by giving you the option to add different Ad blocking options along with some useful options.
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
Even though I think it is not meant for everyone, it is still worth taking a look. Let me highlight the features briefly before you can proceed trying it out.
|
||||
|
||||
### Features of Viper Browser
|
||||
|
||||
![][10]
|
||||
|
||||
I’ll list some of the key features that you can find useful:
|
||||
|
||||
* Ability to manage cookies
|
||||
* Multiple preset options to choose different Adblocker networks
|
||||
* Simple and easy to use
|
||||
* Privacy-friendly default search engine – [Startpage][11] (you can change this)
|
||||
* Ability to add user scripts
|
||||
* Ability to add new user agents
|
||||
* Option to disable JavaScript
|
||||
* Ability to prevent images from loading up
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to all these highlights, you can easily tweak the privacy settings to remove your history, clean cookies when existing, and some more options.
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing Viper Browser on Linux
|
||||
|
||||
It just offers an AppImage file on its [releases section][13] that you can utilize to test on any Linux distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
In case you need help, you may refer to our guide on [using AppImage file on Linux][14] as well. If you’re curious, you can explore more about it on [GitHub][5].
|
||||
|
||||
[Viper Browser][5]
|
||||
|
||||
### My Thoughts on Using Viper Browser
|
||||
|
||||
I don’t think it is something that could replace your current browser immediately but if you are interested to test out new projects that are trying to offer Chrome alternatives, this is surely one of them.
|
||||
|
||||
When I tried logging in my Google account, it prevented me by mentioning that it is potentially an insecure browser or unsupported browser. So, if you rely on your Google account, it is a disappointing news.
|
||||
|
||||
However, other social media platforms work just fine along with YouTube (without signing in). Netflix is not something supported but overall the browsing experience is quite fast and usable.
|
||||
|
||||
You can install user scripts, but Chrome extensions aren’t supported yet. Of course, it is either intentional or something to be looked after as the development progresses considering it as a privacy-friendly web browser.
|
||||
|
||||
### Wrapping Up
|
||||
|
||||
Considering that this is a less-known yet something interesting for some, do you have any suggestions for us to take a look at? An open-source project that deserves coverage?

Viper 浏览器：一款基于 Qt5 的轻量级浏览器，注重隐私和简约
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
**简介：Viper 浏览器是一个基于 Qt 的浏览器，它提供了简单的用户体验，同时考虑到隐私问题。**_
|
||||
|
||||
虽然大多数流行的浏览器都运行在 Chromium 之上，但像 [Firefox][1]、[Beaker 浏览器][2]以及其他一些 [chrome 替代品][3]这样独特的替代品不应该停止存在。
|
||||
|
||||
尤其是考虑到谷歌最近可能想到从 Chromium 中剥离[谷歌浏览器特有的功能][4]，并给出了滥用的借口。
|
||||
|
||||
在寻找更多的 Chrome 替代品时，我在 [Mastodon][6] 上看到了一个有趣的项目 “[Viper 浏览器][5]”。
|
||||
|
||||
### Viper 浏览器：一个基于 Qt5 的开源浏览器
|
||||
|
||||
_**注意**：Viper 浏览器是一个只有几个贡献者的相当新的项目。它缺乏某些功能，我将在下文提及。_
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
Viper 是一款有趣的网络浏览器，在利用 [QtWebEngine][8] 的同时，它专注于成为一个强大而又轻巧的选择。
|
||||
|
||||
QtWebEngine 借用了 Chromium 的代码，但它不包括连接到 Google 平台的二进制文件和服务。
|
||||
|
||||
我花了一些时间使用它并进行一些日常浏览活动，我必须说，我对它相当感兴趣。不仅仅是因为它是一个简单易用的东西（浏览器可以那么复杂），而且它还专注于增强你的隐私，为你提供添加不同的广告阻止选项以及一些有用的选项。
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
虽然我认为它并不是为所有人准备的，但还是值得一看的。在你继续尝试之前，让我简单介绍一下它的功能。
|
||||
|
||||
### Viper 浏览器的功能
|
||||
|
||||
![][10]
|
||||
|
||||
我将列出一些你会发现有用的关键功能：
|
||||
|
||||
* 管理 cookies 的能力
|
||||
* 多个预设选项以选择不同的广告屏蔽器网络。
|
||||
* 简单且易于使用
|
||||
* 隐私友好的默认搜索引擎 - [Startpage][11] （你可以更改）
|
||||
* 能够添加用户脚本
|
||||
* 能够添加新的 user-agent
|
||||
* 禁用 JavaScript 的选项
|
||||
* 能够阻止图像加载
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
除了这些亮点之外，你还可以轻松地调整隐私设置，以删除你的历史记录、清理已有 cookies，以及一些更多的选项。
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
### 在 Linux 上安装 Viper 浏览器
|
||||
|
||||
它只是在[发布页][13]提供了一个 AppImage 文件，你可以利用它在任何 Linux 发行版上进行测试。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你需要帮助，你也可以参考我们的[在 Linux 上使用 AppImage 文件][14]指南。如果你好奇，你可以在 [GitHub][5] 上探索更多关于它的内容。
|
||||
|
||||
[Viper 浏览器][5]
|
||||
|
||||
### 我对使用 Viper 浏览器的看法
|
||||
|
||||
我不认为这是一个可以立即取代你当前浏览器的东西，但如果你有兴趣测试尝试提供 Chrome 替代品的新项目，这肯定是其中之一。
|
||||
|
||||
当我试图登录我的谷歌账户时，它阻止了我，说它可能是一个不安全的浏览器或不支持的浏览器。因此，如果你依赖你的谷歌帐户，这是一个令人失望的消息。
|
||||
|
||||
但是，其他社交媒体平台也可以与 YouTube 一起正常运行（无需登录）。不支持 Netflix，但总体上浏览体验是相当快速和可用的。
|
||||
|
||||
你可以安装用户脚本，但 Chrome 扩展还不支持。当然，这要么是有意为之，要么是在开发过程中特别考虑到它是一款隐私友好型的网络浏览器。
|
||||
|
||||
### 总结
|
||||
|
||||
考虑到这是一个鲜为人知但对某些人来说很有趣的东西，你对我们有什么建议吗？ 是一个值得关注的开源项目么？
