> Transparent code, permissive license, and a community-driven roadmap.
Which I was going to mention is contradictory, because the point of permissive licenses is that it does not have to be Free forever. But the license is actually GPLv3 instead. So still contradictory wording, but the "permissive" is the part that isn't correct :-)
How is built-in ad blocking not the foremost priority? Brave and Comet both have it. uBlock Origin is not as effective as it used to be as of Manifest v3.
I think I like the idea, but the structure of the code doesn't look the best. What most sticks out to me is the "Managers" directory. I've seen similar patterns before, even at my current place of work, but they seem to correlate with less experienced implementations. For instance, I clicked on one of them randomly and already found an issue: https://github.com/nook-browser/Nook/blob/09a4c6957a2e9fd7c5...
I guess `www.` (and only `www.`) is always special, and the only TLDs with two components are `"co.uk", "co.jp", "com.au", "co.nz", "com.br"`. I don't know how critical this "Manager" is (what even is a "boost"?), but a web browser should absolutely have a proper list of TLDs!
Given the background color of the site, I initially thought it was a Barnes and Noble project.
Both the browser and the website look remarkably similar to https://zen-browser.app/.
Because both are trying to be response to the death of Browser Company's Arc. (https://arc.net)
The website says:

uBlock is still as efficient if you're using Mozilla, blame the browser not the extension
What's up with all the Arc clones? Did people really like the 3-tier tab sidebar thing that much?
Thought this was a browser for my e-reader
Same.
