Comments and Reviews
I'm impressed with the transformation of Midori compared to years ago. It has become a fully-featured browser with a lot of customization options. The features I liked the most are the WebApps and the smaller title bar compared to Firefox.
Recently (October 2024), Astian announced that Microsoft is supporting the Midori project, so I hope to see significant improvements in the future.
The Windows version is far from lightweight, in fact it consumes more memory than Firefox and Chrome. Stability issues as well as a dearth of extensions limits its use. A good project but not ready yet for serious users.
crashed twice during install, slow as hell, and has ONE WHOLE extension supported. staying with kiwi.
I am impressed with the change that Midori has had, now it is faster, faster and much more stable, 100% recommended.
Keep working on this browser with each update they are improving, we as users know that it is a slow process but we are willing to wait for this fantastic web browser
Excellent browser, I use it on desktop and mobile
Updated 2024: It fell way behind slimjet and most of the browsers I tested it against for speed.
