Web browsers qutebrowser 1.9.0 and Tor Browser 9.0.3 are available

Published web browser release cutebrowser 1.9.0, which provides a minimal graphical interface that does not distract from viewing the content, and a Vim text editor-style navigation system built entirely on keyboard shortcuts. The code is written in Python using PyQt5 and QtWebEngine. Source texts extend licensed under GPLv3. The use of Python does not affect performance, since content is rendered and parsed by the Blink engine and the Qt library.

The browser supports a tabbed browsing system, a download manager, a private browsing mode, a built-in PDF viewer (pdf.js), an ad blocking system (at the host blocking level), an interface for viewing browsing history. To watch YouTube videos, you can set up to call an external video player. Moving around the page is carried out using the "hjkl" keys, to open a new page you can press "o", switching between tabs is done using the "J" and "K" keys or "Alt-tab number". Pressing ":" brings up a command line prompt where you can search the page and execute typical commands like in vim, such as ":q" to quit and ":w" to write the page. For a quick transition to page elements, a system of "hints" is proposed, which marks links and images.

In the new version:

• Implemented initial support for Qt 5.14;
• Added setting content.site_specific_quirks to resolve issues with WhatsApp Web, Google Accounts, Slack, Dell.com and Google Docs, inadequately reacting to a specific User Agent. The default User Agent, in addition to the version of qutebrowser, now also specifies the version of Qt;
• Added setting qt.force_platformtheme to force the use of a given theme in Qt;
• Added setting tabs.tooltips to disable display of tooltips for tabs;
• Added settings fonts.contextmenu,
  colors.contextmenu.menu.bg,
  colors.contextmenu.menu.fg,
  colors.contextmenu.selected.bg and
  colors.contextmenu.selected.fg to control the appearance of the context menu.

Simultaneously released a new version of Tor Browser 9.0.3, focused on anonymity, security and privacy. Release synchronized with Firefox 68.4.0, which eliminated 9 vulnerabilities, of which five could potentially lead to code execution when opening specially designed pages. Updated bundled Tor 0.4.2.5, Tor Launcher 0.2.20.5 and NoScript 11.0.11. Since Mozilla developers are preparing an unscheduled corrective release of Firefox 68.4.1, the release of Tor Browser 9.0.4 will be formed in the near future.
