I haven’t played around with it yet, but it looks neat

This small but mighty update includes some exciting new features and improvements to Zen, such as passkey support for MacOS, and a media player controller that’s fully integrated with Picture-in-Picture mode.

    I was a user, I even recommended it to people, but since the discovery of this issue I feel uneasy to continue using/recommending it. That dev response is appalling.

      Wow, thanks for bringing this to light. I just installed Zen and started contributing to it, it’s sad to see this. What browser do you use now?

        I got back to Firefox, I’ll try Floorp next, just to see how it goes.

      Why would you be recommending a alpha/beta software to people? It just went stable last week, and I still wouldn’t recommend it based on how young the project is.

      Recommends people to use alpha/beta software. is surprised it has alpha/beta issues.

      I honestly feel uneasy trusting any advice you have.

        Wow, harsh.

        It’s not like this is an oopsie bug, this is a major vuln knowingly indroduced by the dev, and their response is somewhat shocking.

        I recommend plenty of alpha/beta software to people, of course with the disclaimer that it’s not done yet, but sure, feel free to not trust me at all, stranger :)

        For the record, I did not encounter major bugs in my ~1 month of usage.
