MorphOS: Web browser Wayfarer 8.2 (2nd update)
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek has released version 8.0 of his Wayfarer web browser for MorphOS. Wayfarer is now based on the WebKit engine WebKitGTK 2.44.0, which was released at the beginning of April.
As the developer explains, it is becoming increasingly difficult to update WebKit and more work is required than for the upgrades of versions 5, 6 or 7. Anyone who appreciates the work of Jacek Piszczek is welcome to make a donation.
Update: (06:45, 05.05.24, snx)
Meanwhile version 8.1 is available, fixing crashes of its predecessor.
2nd update: (19:10, 05.05.24, snx)
Version 8.2 has now been released and is based on WebKitGTK 2.44.1, which has fixed further bugs that caused crashes. In addition, the so-called "lazy loading" of image files is now supported. This means that they are only loaded when they are needed, which can shorten the loading times of websites. (dr)
