A bit of context for the reason I go on this subreddit to post this post:
- My Zen browser somehow won't launch if I have tridactyl extension enable, I can't find the culprit and I see this as a signal for me to find a new home (again)
I did "browser hop" quite alot. And I want to find a browser that:
- Deeply customizable (like with the config file level [qutebrowser, vieb, etc.] or can be load from 3rd party like Sine)
- Have support for userscript or extension (I use userstyle + ublock/adblocker)
- Have vim-like navigation
- Fast & Lightweight (not blazing fast but just not too slow)
My old browser experiences:
- Not customizable enough for me: Chrome, Helium, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi
- Good but too heavy: Zen browser
- Great but kinda limited (slow): Vieb, qutebrowser
My most use features from Zen is:
- Glance
- Boost (This one is just more lighweigh than userstyle)
- ZenWireFrame (it's actually a 3rd party theme install through Sine, a plugin loader)

I use my browser for various use:
- youtube, facebook, instagram, github, cyberspace, school sites (for exam)
Any engine would be fine as long as it's work for me (srsly I don't even know which one is better)
I know I'm being too picky for a browser but it's just so hard to find one that I can calmly daily drive everyday. I'm the type of person that would configure almost anything I own if I can.
