dothq / browser-desktop Goto Github PK

Hello.
I just found that when you open tab, then somewhere open link in another tab (right click) and then you close tab, it saves in history of the first tab, so when you go back it loads the second tab instead of the previous page.

While attempting to login (version: Dot 2.0.0 beta13), I'm stuck on the loading screen or whatever this is.

(help)

Twitter doesn't load on the browser for some reason. https://boneless-pizza.is-rocket.science/JqN.png

How to Reproduce:

As soon as I navigate to this url the browser crashes instantly.

I am using the latest beta.

• Add a way to cancel downloads in-progress
• Add a dialog or notification to show a download has started
• Fix archives not opening

I find the browser really slow at navigating pages. It seems like it does nothing for a few seconds before actually doing anything.

• Made the window
• Create the template
• Apply styles
• Add functions to buttons
• Recieve request from ipcRenderer
• Accept/Deny permission

Using a new installation of the browser and entering anything in the url bar does nothing except opening a new blank tab. However, if you go into settings and set your search engine everything starts to work. It would make more sense to have Google/DuckDuckGo as the default search engine so it wouldn't seem like it's not working.

Version Info:

2.0.0 beta 13

Dot allows websites to use camera, microphone, MIDI and other stuff without users knowledge or consent. It also lacks the ability to use notifications and the geo location API major browsers support.

As you can see, I typed github but there's no option to search for just github, only suggestions and URLs from history

It'd be nice if you could switch between light and dark depending on what macOS has set.

You can do this with a NPM package called node-dark-mode.

const darkMode = require('dark-mode');

if (darkMode.isDark()) {
    // code
} else {
    // code
}

Thanks!

So while using Dot now for some time I noticed some things that maybe could be added.

• a tray icon + menu
  This could be a nice option to have, so people are maybe able to hide the browser,
  Or show the last five websites they have visited.

• "Backspace" for Previous page.
  This is a feature I think almost all web browsers do use these days and is for me feature I mis in Dot. It makes navigating easier.

• "ESC" as close option for screens like Settings or Extensions
  I found myself smashing the "ESC" button while I was in the setting screen, but noticed it did not close the screen, this could be a good option.

Twitter's Open Source Emojies are way better than the default Microsoft emojies.

This thing is good to know when yu have multiple tabs and don't know which tab is playing the audio.
This feature has most modern browser (chrome, firefox, opera...) and I like it. They also add right-click option to mute the tab.

Error when waiting for over 3 minutes for Electron to init. npm run dev was ran.

No further info on this. Now 4444 port is in use on machines. Change this in the future.

Closed.

So, when you type something in the URL bar, the line shifts to the front of the text. I'm not sure if this is a known bug or issue. https://boneless-pizza.is-rocket.science/u53WnsS.gif

• Middle click on tabs to close
• Zoom function (ctrl + scroll & ctrl +-)
• Fix settings.json uncaught exception
  
• Fix Top Sites showing URLs instead of titles
  

Hi,
Thanks for making such a great browser. I hope to see it on windows so work life and private life bookmarks would be in same page.
I'm using it in Archlabs on Surface laptop with Jakeday custom kernel. Some of the things are lone to me.

Issues

• Crashed when it opened for the first time.
• Frozen for the second time running after couple of tabs opened (3 or 4). Had to restart as it was frozen and unable to kill.
• Single tab running a YouTube with running video sucks up 80% of all 4 processor power.
• The weather widget in home page is showing wrong location or there is a settings for that widget which I don't know.(not sure)
• Sign in button is not working. What account we should use in it? Discord or GitHub or a new login to signup and where is the sign up button?

Suggestions or enhancements

• The dark home page is fantastic, when you return from a page back to home, tabs title color is black on a dark mode which I'm unable to see or recognize, if I have couple of tabs. I think it should be white or a profile based color which user is able to select from set of colors from settings page like in Windows 10.
• The settings tab titles are stick to the sidebar border.May be a little gap looks good!
• A Windows app?
• Dark mode to have every tab.
• Changing the url on same tab goes to home page back, instead can we have a long text bar expanded for the same tab without a next line.

When searching "badssl", I saw this

The dot in the top left is not centered vertically.

Dot doesn't react to any bad ssl errors.
A good page to test a lot of these errors is https://badssl.com/

Suggestions for Dot

• Add familiar keybinds to Dot so navigating with only a keyboard can be easy (basically add keybinds like Ctrl + T for New Tab and Ctrl + W)
• Don't make pressing the "+" on the Browser make you go to the launcher and hide your tabs, make it so that the color scheme matches the launcher and the top bar isn't hidden.
• Don't make the refresh keybind restart the browser completely.

The ad blocker should have settings to allow the user to only block annoying ads, and keep ads that don't disturb the user

Redesign the search engine drop down, so it becomes it own tab.

ok

electron-extensions doesn't seem to work with Electron 5.0, this is a priority.

This issue was generated by todo based on a @todo comment in 7b62a5eed0f4be4d8f3c707704dbfffe40b68c91. It's been assigned to @EnderDev because they committed the code.

The second file (Elementary) being the most recent file, while the dot browser setup is the second most recent file.

Elementary should be first while dot should be second, the downloads list is in reverse order.

add ctrl+r to reload
fix f12 dev tools opens for browser
center icon

Be able to reload a page using f5

The developer tools window can be brought up with CTRL + SHIFT + i in most chromium browsers.

There's bad css on the signup page, this and the big dot makes me feel very sad, because the dot is too big to fit in the taskbar, which means that he is getting squashed and so he is uncomfortable with his living arrangements, the css not being good makes dot browser sad because css not good, when css is sad, dot is sad.

Allow media keys to control websites like: YouTube, Spotify (Web Player), Soundcloud, etc.
There's already programs / extensions that have integrated this feature and I feel like it would be a good addition to Dot.

Examples of these extensions:
https://github.com/PreMiD/PreMiD
https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Browser_Integration

File support in Dot

The ability to download files in Dot should be a thing.

Without launcher,

With launcher,

Discussion: Would you like your passwords stored locally, but encrypted, or on our servers but they can be accessed by the dev team, also encrypted.

There's a big dot in the taskbar on macOS, discovered this whilst I was compiling the application for macOS, but got a codesign error. I believe this has to do with Catalina having multiple issues with codesigning on iOS and Mac binaries, I'll try again in the next beta.

I'm on macOS Catalina Developer Beta 2 (build id 19A487l)
Maybe this contributes to the issue as there were many changes through-out the system in Catalina.

Reproduce:
run npm start
see big dot

Picture:

What is back-button hijacking?

Back button hijacking is a method in fishy/sketchy websites to send you to a website that'll redirect you to the main website, thus, when you attempt to press the back button, it'll send you back to the redirecting website, repeating the process again.

Block _self links

So I also installed Wexond to see what feature-set it has and what you guys have improved. I noticed that they have a Dark/Light mode setting. I found no such setting in the Dot Browser. Maybe this is intended behavior or it will be implemented back in the future? Anyhow, it would be nice to have this option.

Version Info:

2.0.0-beta.13

Usage examples

The following methods can be used by using a user token.

• Grabbing website metadata (from a user), with an authorized token of some sorts.
• Get user profile info. (i.e. grabbing a profile picture) This will not require an authorized token

Checklist

• Add light theme
• Add theme changer
• Add option to set theme of tab bar and overlay to different values

When a URL that's a known IP loggers is in the browser or something, it'll just say that it's an IP logger and not let you open it.

CTRL + R is supposed to reload the current page, but it reloads the entire dot browser.
