qutebrowser is a keyboard-focused browser with a minimal GUI. It’s based on Python and Qt and free software, licensed under the GPL.
It was inspired by other browsers/addons like dwb and Vimperator/Pentadactyl.
New :quickmark-reload and :bookmark-reload commands to reload quick-/bookmarks from disk (#8845).
Changed
Windows and macOS releases now ship with Qt 6.11.0, which is based on Chromium 140.0.7339.225 with security patches up to 146.0.7680.80.
Deprecated
Support for Python 3.9 is not tested anymore, and will be fully removed in the next release (#8731).
Fixed
Added a workaround for graphic/flickering issues with Qt 6.11.0, AMD graphics and Wayland (#8908).
Compatibility with PDF.js >= 5.5.207 (#8885).
datalist dropdowns not opening correctly on Wayland/Sway (#8831). This was caused by an old workaround for a different QtWebEngine issue, which is now disabled for QtWebEngine 6.6.3 and newer.
The workaround avoiding Google blocking sign ins from qutebrowser was updated, although it’s unclear if this will fix the issue as the behavior is wildly inconsistent.
Added a workaround for QtWebEngine 6.11 crashing on Google Mail / Meet (#8914).
The workaround avoiding crashes with Qt 6.10.1 and qt.workarounds.disable_hangouts_extension (or --version) has now been extended to Qt 6.10.2 as well (#8785, #8841).
ANSI color codes now don’t end up in commands.asciidoc anymore when regenerating it using Python 3.14.
The GenericName in the .desktop file is now correct for Ukrainian and Chinese (#8836).
