First of all, thank you for this video. Second of all, (having scrolled approx a half of the comments didn't find a similar comment so 50% it's not a duplicate). NOTE: after patching you should merge the difference into the -config.h- file somehow. Just -patch ...- and then -make install- doesn't work. For example, you may delete the -config.h- RIGHT after patching and THEN -make install-. Sorry, if everybody but me knows this :) (and under YOU I mean a WATCHER not you, DT :) )

Hey DT was an Arch user for about 6 years now, coming from Ubuntu and earlier once from WinXP. But in the last years I found myself very lazy, I had my stuff I used and that was it. Thank to you (and a new Job environment that at least has a little Unix work for me) I completely renewed my daily usage of the computer. Im playing around now, trying to learn new stuff and even migrated my girlfriend to linux. Thats an awesome new life with Distrotube by my side now :)

Thank you DistroTube!
This ability to use custom stylesheet (which I create myself) is so extremely alleviating and to the point.
My web browser wouldn't let me do that on investment terminal, because of -safe mode- for finance-related web pages.
I had to apply the custom style through browser console script each time I refresh the webpage.

Hi, just starting with suckless -DE- and surf is the only thing that doesn't sit well with me. Spawning WebKit process for every tab is basically the same thing as using Safari with the same footprint on resources.
Also, have you tried using git merge for composing patches? It works magic for me so far.

Hi a quick tip. At 10:00 you can use Surf for that. Its called -Web Inspector-/ -Developer Tools- and you can find it on the manpage of surf. The keybinding to open it is ctrl-shift+o. After it is open you can press ctrl-alt-zero to open the css panel then you can use it like in the other browsers.

Going to be honest. I think we can go deeper.
I think that we can go even further in making the most minimal viable product possible.
Why do we need images, CSS, or Javascript? Let's just put support for those in a patch.
the -G URL bar? nah, just close the window and open a new one.

I tried this in the macOS terminal. The command -make clean install- failed and so did -sudo...- So, I think I need to wait until I really use Linux. Yes, I read the README file, but that didn't help.
That XEL chip makes me think of small LCD? displays.

Surf is great if you're browsing with a single page but I moved to a single-line userChrome.css themed Firefox for multiple tabs. Little things added up like I couldn't figure out how to undo in the textarea, and I lost instances and tabs in a crash.

hangs my machine every time i try to use it...firefox slower but doesn't hang like this thing. It also crashes when you click on the bookmarking patch and doesn't tell you where it's storing it or if it even downloaded at all - completely SUCKS!

Have you considered doing a video on qute browser? Minimal like surf, but not too minimal, very customisable and has vim bindings. I absolutely love it at the moment.
