    PlasmaFox

    PlasmaFox is a qt version of Firefox plus some extra protection. It's really neat for KDE users.

    = quote =
    Plasmafox web browser

    Main differences between Plasmafox and Firefox:

    KDE integration with file dialogs and global menu
    Binaries built with clang 10.0.0 from Arch repos
    Uses many system libraries (e.g. libvpx, nspr, icu, zlib, harfbuzz, av1 etc.)
    Some Mozilla services like Pocket, Telemetry, UI Tour and Sync disabled
    Removed most of trademark-restricted marks like the name "Firefox" and the icons
    disabled WebRTC and WebSpeech

    Additions:

    includes profiles for profile-sync-daemon and firejail
    includes a few privacy related tweaks from ghacks
    best used in conjunction with kplasmafoxhelper

    How does it update? Do you have to download a tarball everytime, or can you just press a button like if you download the firefox bundle without installing?

    I'm not quite sure. There's something called snippets in the settings.. What it is I'm not sure.

    Looks promising. It would be nice to have a browser that integrates perfectly with KDE.
