Interesting. Reminds me of qutebrowser. One of the issues I ran into when working on that is the fact that Qt only ships engine upgrades when they do a release of the entire Qt library, which means you can be several browser versions behind. Does nyxt have that problem?
Nyxt uses webkitGTK, it seems to get updated relatively frequently. E.g. some stack size issues with musl were fixed in webkit and a webkitGTK release based on it was out in days IIRC
this site only supports avatar things through some service I don’t want to sign up for. EDIT: ok, I guess I had already signed up for wordpress.com. the avocado is back.
or if you’re asking why I’m not bugging you with requests/issues.. I kinda got overwhelmed trying to use lisp with vim (integration is really kludgy with having to start services, and I could never get any of the popular options to work). It’s sad when a simple text editor and a compiler are not all that is required to hack on things with a language, and I don’t really want to change my entire workflow to emacs :(
Sure, we are constantly working on embedding a better editor into Nyxt :-). Actually you can edit the Nyxt source code from within Nyxt… but that is a story for another time :-D
Greatest browser in the world
Thanks :-)

What happened to the Avocado?

phew, I can express relief that the Avocado is back :-)
Don’t worry, you won’t need to use emacs to hack on Nyxt. Not for much longer!
Is something changing?

No, Nyxt does not have that problem.
