About Falkon

Falkon is a KDE web browser using QtWebEngine rendering engine, previously known as QupZilla. It aims to be a lightweight web browser available through all major platforms. This project has been originally started only for educational purposes. But from its start, Falkon has grown into a feature-rich browser. Falkon has all standard functions you expect from a web browser. It includes bookmarks, history (both also in sidebar) and tabs. Above that, it has by default enabled blocking ads with a built-in AdBlock plugin. The very first version of QupZilla has been released in December 2010 and it was written in Python with PyQt4 bindings. After a few versions, QupZilla has been completely rewritten in C++ with the Qt Framework. First public release was 1.0.0-b4. Until version 2.0, QupZilla was using QtWebKit. QtWebKit is now deprecated and new versions are using QtWebEngine. Since version 3.0, QupZilla is no longer developed and new version are released with Falkon name.

Almost half of all adblock users agree that there are too many ads on the internet and that they are annoying, irrelevant and intrusive. Websites can install as many as over 100 individual trackers to visitors' devices. This goes unnoticed by the majority of web users. 91% of adults agree that consumers have lost control of how personal information is collected and used by companies. Sometimes ads may incorporate or install malware. Malvertising grew by 132% during the previous year. Downloading ads requires data, which means additional costs for mobile traffic. More than half of all data on news websites comes from ads. Free Adblocker Browser is an internet browser for Android. The browser has an integrated Adblock feature that blocks all ads and trackers automatically even before they get downloaded to your device. This ensures a great user experience. Not only does it block annoying ads, but you can also browse super-fast without wasting time and money on downloading advertising.

    "Perfect"

    Edited 2023-03-23

    Pros: Simple, fast and lightweight, runs perfectly on my windows desktop with 3gb ram, in terms of being fast, i can compare it to K-Meleon.

    Cons: The only thing I don't like about Falkon, is... No API.

    Overall: I've installed Falkon this month, and i'm having a great experience, i recommend a lot, so that's why i give it 5 stars.
