Are you affiliated with the project? I see all your posts are about Graphene OS. On HN it is customary to state it: you often see "author here" in discussions where the author joins. If you are part of the team I would suggest against using the third person ("they have a team...").

I know strcat is the lead Graphene OS developer, and it seems you and Andromxda are very knowledgeable about the project and very active on this thread.

DOM navigation for fetching some data is for tryhards. Using a regex to grab the correct paragraph or div or whatever is fine and is more robust versus things moving around on the page.

but not when crawling. you don't know the page format in advance - you don't even know what the page contains!

Is this because of the malware risk inherent in images?

> Genuinely curious - what do people want to see from a new/different rendering engine?

It should be fast when rendering HTML/CSS. I don't really care about JavaScript performance, because where possible I switch it off anyways.

It should be customizable and configurable, more than Firefox was before Electrolysis and certainly much more than Chrome.

It should support addons that can change, override, mangle, basically do everything imaginable to site content. But with configurable permissions per site.

It should support saving the current state of a website including the exact rendering at that moment for archiving. It should also support annotations (like comments, emphasis, corrections) for that. And it should support diffs for those saved states.

And if you include "the browser" in that:

I want a properly usable bookmarks manager, not the crap that current browsers have. Every bookmark should include (optionally, but easily) the exact page state at the time of bookmarking. Same for history.

Sync everything to a configurable git repo: config, bookmarks, history, open windows/tabs, annotations and saved website snapshots.

I want easily usable mass operations, like "save me every PDF from this tab group", "save all the pictures and name them sometopic-somewebsite-date-id.jpg" or "print all tabs that started with this search and all sites visited from there as PDF printouts into the documentation folder".

I want the ability to watch a website for changes, so the browser visits in the background and notifies me if anything relevant is different (this could be a really hard thing to get right I guess...).

I want "network perspectives" (for lack of a better word): show me this website as it would look from my local address, over this VPN, with my language set to Portuguese, ..., easily switchable per tab.

I want completely configurable keybindings for everything, like vimperator, but also for the bookmark manager, settings, really everything.

And I want a pony ;)

What is it triggered by?

I have not used unlock in years, since NoScript as a side-effect of not running scripts tends to block almost everything anyway (in particular ads), but maybe I should install it again after all for things like this.

AWS customers have to pay for outbound traffic. Is there a way to get them to send you (or cloudflare) huge volumes of traffic?

yeah, could use a free worker

strong disagree. it's very similar to anti-phishing training/tests. also, being tagged as a company that cares that its potential new hires are not lazy programmers that just copy&paste because someone told them too would more than likely be taken as a positive not a negative.

anti phishing tests are stupid in a similar manner, clicking a link should not fail you

Who they were scamming, Americans? How they managed to gain trust, even considering strong accent or grammatical mistakes. How do they identify and trace these Chinese fraudsters? They all look the same and have a name like Hi Lo. Where the money go... of course real estate.
