ZenWith release **1.11b** we completely **removed the web panel feature**. This is due to security concerns and difficulties in maintaining it. We recommend using split views instead. We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. While we understand some of you used the web panels, recent research lead us to this decision.Also, we've added this nice button in the Glance menu!Please read the full release notes here <a href="https://zen-browser.app/release-notes/#1.11b" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://zen-browser.app/release-notes/#1.11b</a><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ZenBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ZenBrowser</a>

Crook 🍕 ☕ 🐕🚀 Continuing my Linux migration series—this time with browsers. I love Arc Browser, but no Linux support. 😢 Zen Browser was solid, but some of my key extensions are Chrome-only.Now testing Vivaldi—it’s fast, polished, maybe too feature-packed? 😅Got a favorite Chromium browser for Linux? Let me know!(Skipping Brave—still feels kinda shady.)🔍 <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ArcBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArcBrowser</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ZenBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ZenBrowser</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Chromium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chromium</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WebBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebBrowser</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LinuxLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LinuxLife</a>

Light🐧⁂Not long after I can't find any reason to keep Zen Browser around I removed it. I still have one would say a web browser collection and rather have vastly different ones for different use cases. I already had Librewolf and Floorp that I continue to use, Chromium for the odd websites that aren't work that well in Firefex based browsers and lastly qutebrowser that use mainly for opening up links that I see in posts. I think for now I can stop experimenting with browsers, except if I find one that I haven't tried yet that's preferably not a chromium based one. I tried out any of them that interested me, some of them are around for a long time that I wanted to check out, the others are the ones that I never tried. In the first category that I check out sometimes is Vivaldi. Those that fall into the later category Zen Browser, Floorp and Mullvad Browser. While Mullvad Browser would be a good choice only if I use any VPN, which I don't and don't see a reason to use it without one. And yes I have admit Zen and Floorp are both have some little bugs that I had encountered while using them, all of those where UI related. But until I found these bugs really annoying in Floorp I will continue to keep it around and use it.<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/browsers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#browsers</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/zenbrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#zenbrowser</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/floorp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#floorp</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/mullvadbrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mullvadbrowser</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/chromium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#chromium</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vivaldi</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/qutebrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#qutebrowser</a>

Zen⚠️1.10.3b contains a critical firefox security update which fixes a vulnerability in sandboxing.Please update your browser asap!Read more here <a href="https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2025-19/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2025-19/</a><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ZenBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ZenBrowser</a>

Light🐧⁂After Floorp I thought why not I should try out Zen Browser too. Zen too offers some features that only as far as I know exist only in Zen, there's Zen Mods which are basically just extensions made by the community. It's an interesting unique thing I haven't seen any other web browser that does anything like that. I generally as a rule doesn't like to use extensions with the exception of UBlock Origin so this feature is not something I care about, but nonetheless it's impressive how much the UI itself can be customized with the help of Zen Mods. Zen Browser is way more customization then Floorp, while both having some settings that are the same or somewhat equal, for instance both allow the user to customize the keyboard shortcuts and vertical tabs is there for those who care about having vertical tabs without the need of an extension, I personally like vertical tabs they take up less space. Although I heard Firefox has vertical tabs too for awhile, but I'm not using Firefox on the desktop so IDK how well it works or if it's similar to what we get in Floorp and Zen.<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/browsers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#browsers</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/floorp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#floorp</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/zenbrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#zenbrowser</a>

MitulI mean There's not a single tab which is open probably YT and rest are closed but they are closing which I find annoying I mean I want to make it like arc with few here and there tweaks and slowly I can move from Arc entirely to Zen but.

But honestly, i don't hide the top bar. My compact mode only hides the sidebar. Maybe because I use an external monitor most of the time that's decently sized and res? But yeah. Glad it's customizable though

JesseBotI absolutely love the compact mode that comes with zen browser (fork of firefox). Look at this side by side comparison of both Zen (left) and Librewolf (right, more direct fork of firefox).
