I left a comfy UX/Eng job at Google to build Quiche Browser and an indie brand around my love for the Web, minimalism, and questionable naming. https://quiche.industries πŸ“πŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΊπŸ›«πŸ—ΌπŸ‡―πŸ‡΅

Phantom Obligation Why RSS readers look like email clients, and what that's doing to us.

Too rarely, an app creator breaks outdated conventions and designs their dream app from first principles to solve a problem in a radical way, instead of shipping yet another uninspired clone.

If you’re into laser-focused creators, this is well worth your time.

Not at this time, but let’s revisit if the app starts paying for rent and food at some point. These times are quite rough economically for people like me.

De rien ! Happened to me as well, and that was quite annoying.
I should add a list of all websites with JavaScript exceptions so that they can be easily deleted.

1. Go to a non-search page on ddg.com such as duckduckgo.com/updates
2. Enable JavaScript back.
3. Your searches should now go to the full fledged version.

Please let me know how that goes!

Oh it looks like you disabled JavaScript on DDG?
That one is a bit annoying because of their auto redirect to a that html.xxx subdomain.

Can you please try these steps? πŸ‘‡

I'd rather not depend on anything made by Firefox. They're not reliable. Catching up with whatever changes they could introduce all of a sudden would get old soon enough.

That's bothering me as a user too 😒
If I can't manage to fund the development of a macOS version, I'm hoping that some desktop browser extension could help syncing tabs/favorites/history with Chrome and Firefox.

Please go to Settings β†’ Tabs β†’ Menu and add the "Translate" button.

The mere fact that LLM-generated results are not deterministic should be enough to discredit that comparison with compilers.

I was drawn to Quiche for its lack of 4 annoyances:

1. No VPN
2. No AI
3. No Crypto Wallet
4. No suggested services

I get browser companies need to monetise, but here I am paying for a browser so I can support a developer who has no interest in monetising at the expense of user experience.

Wow! I hope you’ll like what’s coming next then.
Thanks a million for your generous support!

Great news for me as an indie browser maker:
Safari is rumored to be rebuilt around AI features in iOS 27!

If even Apple joins the Browser AI-Enshittification League, I can’t think of a better opportunity for Quiche Browser to stand out as the radically minimalist/no-nonsense alternative to Safari.

Customizable gestures in Quiche Browser are my main focus right now.

They’ll let you replace what your most important buttons do and, if you’re into hardcore minimalism like me, keep only the page’s information for calmer, more immersive reading.

If you’re also into that, go watch Monsieur Pixel’s extreme focus-oriented iPhone setup. (English auto-dub available.)

What a lovely surprise to discover my little indie web browser so tastefully featured on a YouTube channel about minimalism and aesthetics in tech.

(Both very much my thing, and what I try to put into Quiche Browser.)

Once custom blocking lists are supported, it'll be possible to define your own CSS-based element removals. The "hide distracting items" would be great but a bit challenging, and not always error proof. If I tackle scriptlets support first, I think the blocker can get a lot more powerful.

I totally forgot I described it this way, but also... stand by it. Love an insane browser

β€œInsane but actually really lovely” could be a fitting description of my app, and probably of the whole idea of trying to build a sustainable business around a web browser with a silly name.

(Thanks for the SO @davidpierce.xyz πŸ™)

Wow, wow! Thanks so much for the shout-out, the super kind words, and your generous support. I’m really touched 😌

Reasonably sized phones are unfortunately an extinct species, but Comfort Mode helps bring some reachability back.

But I can't remember you ever telling me! I had a huge respect for you and your design skills at G, so please always feel free to share any feedback you may have.

Swipe-to-close gestures now available in Quiche Browser!

I’ve already received some positive feedback so hopefully they feel so good you’ll open 100 random tabs just for the fun of swipe-closing them.
(I just did.)
