Safari has been very slow on my iPad recently, so I’m considering some alternatives.
My google search brought me some options like Opera Mini and Puffin but I don’t like Opera and Puffin is deprecated.
I’ve been using Orion browser for a while since I thought it was faster than safari but it’s so unstable that it grays out about once in 10 minutes.
I just tried installing Firefox Focus (since it says it’s lightweight), not sure if it’s the best option.
Is there any browser that is as simple as just a tabbed WebView? ( I mean, I’m looking for something dead simple like NetNewsWire for rss that is written in pure swift.)
(except for puffin)
Where do you think I should ask this question in? Asklemmy?
You are in the right place, but there is no solution. All browsers are basically safari with a different „skin“ on iOS.
They do behave differently, though. In fact, Firefox Focus worked surprisingly fast compared to Safari.
Firefox on iOS uses WebKit.
I think you’ve inadvertently narrowed down that the issue is an extension you have enabled for Safari. Since it’s not the website itself.
I have enabled only 1Password for Safari. There’s no other extension enabled/installed.
It appears that it’s not about rendering engine, although everyone mentions about that. The problem is in the app itself, not webkit.
And I know that every browsers on iOS use WebKit.
