Hmm, missed this when it was originally posted in that news section. Trying it now. About time a different browser not based on Chrome came along.

It's based on Firefox ESR and browsers based on Firefox are not new --> https://www.google.com/search?q=Firefox+based+browsers&client=firefox

Yes, I know there are some other browsers based on Firefox, but those are all older one's that I've tried before. I was more or less saying this is a newer one that I hadn't heard of before.

tried out the browser for a bit but there is one deal breaker for me right now keeping me from using it full time on my home PC. It doesn't support the PWA extension properly yet. Wish Mozilla hadn't decided to drop native PWA support :/

There's a few on that list that I know of & tried, but a bunch I've never heard of.

It does support native PWA that's you don't need PWA addon, and you can install PWA addon too just like Firefox: https://github.com/Floorp-Projects/Floorp/discussions/411#discussioncomment-7800301

      Did Labour lose big? They had losses there is no doubt. However let's look at the reality. The conservatives have 168 councils I believe. Labour have 113 and Reform...38. That's a lot of growth for Reform granted. But that is not a wipeout, Reform don't have the majoring in fact at 76 I believe the Liberal Democrats have nearly twice the councils Reform do. So I am thinking there is a lot more noise than signal going on here. Now then let's talk about the law. It's an age restriction. We do it for cigarettes, **** and alcohol. This idea that some kids will find there way around it so it's not worth even trying is really really sad. Hell we can't stop every murder. Should we stop trying there too? That is the logical conclusion.

      A game not selling doesn't mean the people working on it did "bad work". It reviewed decently well. It was also on gamepass on release.
