Which web browser for replicant ?
Added by E D about 10 years ago
In short, the original web browser is subject to security flaws,
all other browsers base on this one, such as lightning, suffer from the same vulnerabilities.
Tried firefox, crashes at launch, google chrome does not seem to work far better as posted else where.
I tried zirco browser, but it crashes when going on google and seems also quite vulnerable according to the ssllabs test page.
So, which browser for replicant ?

I really don't get the point of trying proprietary ones. I guess there is currently no secure free browser for Replicant.

I tried to create an browser-overview including the vulnerability and needed apps-permissions here:

In fact, there are only vulnerable browsers available for Replicant, yet. Because Chromium & Fennec (Firefox for Android) are depending on proprietary accelerated graphics, which aren't available on Replicant, for now. And those two browsers seems to be the only more secured browser alternatives at the moment...
