BlocKit - new WebKitGTK Adblock extension
https://github.com/dudik/blockit Hello. I've been working on a new adblock extension for browsers based on WebKitGTK - for example nyxt, vimb, surf, luakit... Notable features compared to currently available solutions are: supports both network and dynamic cosmetic filtering, automatic filter lists updating, element picker/zapper and a simple GUI (optional, configuration is also possible purely through text files). It's written in C, but uses the adblock-rust library written in Rust by the team that stands behind the Brave browser. Based on limited testing (https://adblock-tester.com/), the extension gets the same score as uBlock Origin (100%). I'm looking for some feedback - what works, what doesn't, what features are missing, what you like/dislike etc. The README should contain everything you need to know, but I will gladly answer any questions.

Nyxt Browser
What about blockit[0]? It does implement some of the features you need. It's still a WIP, but I'm actively working on it and it uses the adblock-rust library from Brave, which is already able to compete with uBlock Origin.

This is the optimum 14 inch keyboard layout. No improvements are possible. Fight me.
Check out vimb.

My simple startpage
This is vimb. Good for surfing non-soydev websites, but cannot render javascript bloated webpages like youtube.com. For that I use firefox with a oneliner userchrome css.

Did you ever meet this guy ?
I have a custom CSS theme in Firefox (Librewolf) that makes the UI more minimal and hides the scrollbar so that Vivaldi minimalist-tab feature does seem cool, what I usually do when I just want a minimal, fast, lightweight and with no UI web render for minimalist websites I use something like vimb.
- your favorite browser with VI key bindings ?

- I been using Firefox for a while now but are there any other browsers you guys use?

What are some alternatives?
When comparing blockit and vimb you can also consider the following projects:
nyxt - Nyxt - the hacker's browser.
browser-fuzzer-3 - Browser Fuzzer 3 is designed as a hybrid framework/standalone fuzzer; the modules it uses are extensible but also highly integrated into the core. bf3 can be used via command line to set all necessary flags for each fuzzing operation.
