@thom.code: Part 5 ~ Every Web Browser Explained There are over 100 browsers you can download right now. Part 1 covered the ones everyone knows. Part 2 covers the ones built by people who thought they could do better — and a few that reached hundreds of millions of people you've probably never heard of. From Vivaldi's cockpit-style customization to UC Browser quietly becoming the internet for half a billion people, these are the browsers hiding behind the ones that won. 📖 What you'll learn: Why Opera's co-founder left and built an entirely new browser from scratch — and why Vivaldi feels less like a browser and more like a settings menu with a browser attached How a 16-year-old developer shipped a 64-bit Firefox before Mozilla did, and what happened when an advertising company bought his project The browser that turns your search history into trees — and why its biggest selling point has nothing to do with features Why Netscape losing the browser war to Microsoft accidentally gave us Firefox, JavaScript, SSL, and every cookie banner you've ever angrily clicked through The privacy browser that makes zero web requests on startup, and why that one detail says everything about how it's different from Chrome How Zen Browser inherited Arc's entire audience after Arc stopped shipping new features — and why being built on Firefox instead of Chromium actually matters The only browser that runs Chrome and Firefox extensions at the same time, and how it pulls that off without running two engines Why Comodo Dragon is the cautionary tale of this video — and what every privacy browser needs to do that Dragon stopped doing What Yandex Browser and UC Browser have in common: more users than almost everything else on this list, and a jurisdiction question worth thinking about 🕗 Timestamps: 0:00​ Vivaldi 1:22​ Waterfox 2:32​ Ecosia 3:40​ Netscape 5:08​ Helium 6:08​ Zen 6:54​ Orion 7:51​ Comodo Dragon 8:34​ Yandex Browser 9:27​ UC Browser 10:16​ Honorable Mention: Pale Moon 10:31​ Honorable Mention: Min Browser #Browsers​ #Vivaldi​ #ZenBrowser​ #Privacy​ #Tech​
