I hear the performance and memory usage of WebKitGTK is much worse than WebKit on macOS.



You mean Midori (AFAIK the only browser using WebKit outside of Safari)?


Midori has been overhauled and is Electron based now. old [0] new [1]

See also this extensive list of browsers [2].

Thanks for the Arch link, but seems outdated (lists Midori under WebKit still). And the warning sounds a bit ominous too: what is an up to date and secure WebKit browser?

I guess I'll still be waiting for Safari.


All the PlayStation browsers use WebKit, and I think Kindle / Kobo too?


GNOME Web is a user, and it happens to integrate with Firefox Sync.
