Show HN: Konform Browser v140.7.0-108

https://codeberg.org/konform-browser/source/releases/tag/140.7.0.108
2•konform•1h ago
Konform Browser is a Firefox ESR fork focused on security, privacy, and user freedom. This might sound familiar but I think we still have something worthwhile to bring to the browser ecosystem.

The project started as a fork of LibreWolf and now stands on its own four feet. It takes a harder stance on the three goals of security, privacy and freedom. It's intended to be suitable as a general-purpose daily driver for everything from managing the intranet to surfing the murkier tubes.

This week we added a simple "onboarding" page replacing the about:welcome of Firefox with a page where the user can choose between four different preset configs depending on their scenario and preferences.

If you don't enjoy compiling browser from source, there are prepackaged binaries and probably repos for your Linux dist.

Doors open for users, testers, contributors, as well as hackers itching to (constructively and helpfully pretty please) tear this apart. Looking forward to hear what HN thinks!
