Description

Falkon is a web browser developed by KDE that utilizes the QtWebEngine rendering engine and was formerly known as QupZilla. Its design focuses on being a lightweight browser compatible with all major operating systems. Initially created for educational objectives, Falkon has evolved into a fully-featured web browser since its inception. It includes all the essential functionalities typical of a web browser, such as bookmarks, history (accessible via a sidebar), and tabbed browsing. Additionally, it comes with an integrated AdBlock plugin that automatically blocks ads by default. The project traces its origins back to December 2010 when the first version of QupZilla was launched, developed in Python using PyQt4 bindings. Following several iterations, QupZilla underwent a complete rewrite in C++ using the Qt Framework. The first public version released was 1.0.0-b4. Up until version 2.0, QupZilla operated with the now-obsolete QtWebKit, but subsequent updates transitioned to using the QtWebEngine. With the arrival of version 3.0, the project ceased development under the QupZilla name and has continued to be updated and released as Falkon. This transition marked a significant shift in the project's identity and focus on modern web standards.

Smart-Browsing optimizes page performance automatically as you browse. Ghostery Blocks trackers to speed up page loads and declutter webpages. Anti-tracking anonymizes data to further protect privacy. While you browse the web, Ghostery-grade protection will keep you safe. While you browse the web, keep your Ghostery-grade protection on. While you browse the web, keep your Ghostery-grade protection on. Ghostery Private Browser offers an advanced privacy setting, HTTPS-Only Mode. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is the most fundamental protocol used to communicate between websites and browsers. Unfortunately, it is often unprotected and vulnerable to unwanted surveillance and manipulation. HTTPS-Only Mode makes sure that all communications with Ghostery Browsers are made using HTTP over TLS (HTTPS), which is a secure and encrypted method of communication that is much safer.
