I see all these news on Firefox, Opera, etc.

BUT I tell you I tested them all and the best browser on earth is something else.

In Japan, we have a browser called Donut. In fact, it is a family of different versions. You have Donut Q, Donut R, Donut RAPT, etc. And I say Donut RAPT is THE BEST BROWSER ON EARTH. I just cannot imagine living without it.

I am sorry to say, though, that its website is in Japanese, though the software itself has English file. Donut browsers work on IE.

Otherwise, in Japan, we have also Slepnir and Lunascape that are not as good as Donut, but more users. Donut is rather for advanced users (too many things possible for novices). They are still better than Opera or Firefox. So, I am proud to say that Japan is the most advance country when it comes to browsers. :p

Why no links to the "Best browser on Earth?" To the english file?

Heh, the Japanese government paying you to shamelessly promote this propaganda? Or are you just very patriotic?

I have a feeling all the advanced browsers you mentioned are, quite simply, IE shells. Or Gecko based browsers.

Ummm... :no:

So basically, you created your own IE shell and now want to see if anyone else wants to use it? Create buzz?

Sorry, but IE shells are not browsers. They are just new interfaces for IE's browser engine.

Like FF is a shell on top of the gecko engine you mean? And all other browsers using the gecko engine?

Gecko browsers can have different features pertaining to the engine itself, and different ways the "shell" integrates with the engine. On the other hand, well, good luck getting into the Trident engine and making it better or work better specifically with the browser.

That doesn't count when you're a fanboy!!

Last I checked, worbd was an Opera fanboy. :huh:

friend of mine uses some chinese built browser, im not sure if he's just anti-western or is the browser actually better for his needs, he never told me which browser. But i would never switch to any chinese browser anyways if not only for the simple problem of me not liking to read the UI thats in chinese and not english. :p

Yup, except that IE shells do not need to distribute the trident engine since it's already in every window, or practically every PC not named mac. On the other hand each gecko shell has to include the gecko engine in its distribution.

Maybe another difference is that the gecko engine is open source so gecko shells can change it if they want.

not really. firefox 'is' the 'gecko browser'. and it isn't as full of holes as microshock internet exploiter.

gecko was developed by the people who made firefox. ie was developed by the people who made trident.

lame ie browser shells are using trident, which they did not develop or spend time and resources making, unlike mozilla with its gecko engine and microshaft.

It's an IE shell that runs from a directory. (no install)

Once you update it from the 62-65 release and click 'Check Update' it pops up a confirmation that says "Your Donut is already the latest."...and honestly...to me that was worth the whole 2 minutes of my life it wasted :p

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
