I can confirm that NetSurf is by far the best Browser on OpenBSD 5.5 (short of problems on big indian). This post has been typed on NetSurf. Xobrero is OK but WebKit feels bloated. Firefox feels like Mozilla Suite before it died.

Look, it's great that you guys are willing to use it and all. But please consider contributing. This stuff doesn't just get better by using it.
sw2wolf: Netsurf doesn't support JavaScript in a (meaningful) way yet. This is why the link you offer doesn't display properly. |

I actually did mean NetSurf here, but OpenBSD work too.

Working on OpenBSD sounds like a bad job, always having Theo in the back. Well, I'd prefer to work upstream on NetSurf anyway, so the browser itself is improved for everyone.

I've taken to using xombrero lately. I like the built-in security stance, paired it up with adsuck. Not too fond of the need for webkitgtk3, but aside from that, it's a pretty fine browser. Also have netsurf installed.

All browsers based on WebKit, i feel both DWB and Luakit are great if you like VIM.

xombrero with tor and polipo and adsuck is what i use for the most part. i like xombrero's minimalist approach, but yet still being very functional on most sites. dillo and netsurf just don't function as well for me despite being minimalist. xombrero runs very well on even modest hardware in my experience -- and it is quite simple to configure to browse with a degree of privacy. the only note I should add is this: using Tor does cause a degree of lag while browsing.

How's adsuck's success rate?
