  • Don’t we have some already? Knoqueror comes to mind…

    Edit:

    According to chatgpt…:

    Here are some FOSS web browsers that are not directly based on any other existing browser or engine (though they may share components or libraries):

    1. Konqueror – While it uses the KHTML engine, it was originally developed independently as part of the KDE project and is not based on any other browser.

    2. Dillo – A very lightweight browser focused on simplicity and speed. It uses its own layout engine called Dillo Widget Set (DWSET), not based on any other browser engine.

    3. Netsurf – A lightweight browser that uses its own rendering engine, NetSurf, rather than being based on another browser.

    These browsers have independent origins and are not forks of other browsers. They either developed their own rendering engines or were built from the ground up. However, it’s worth noting that even independent browsers often rely on shared libraries or standards to some degree.


















  • It’s bad for other reasons too, like a script on a website would launch as root… And also without a password if your disk was encrypted your data is protected even if someone has physical access.

    It is just generally common knowledge to not run around in God mode all day, otherwise sudo wouldn’t exist.
