K-Meleon v76.4G

Stephen Leibowitz on 16 Jun 2023
  • 65MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 12 Feb 2021
  • Suggested by BigD

K-Meleon is a fast, customizable, and lightweight alternative web browser that supports tabs, tools and skins, and can be configured to work with common extensions like Adblock.

K-Meleon is based on a fork of the Gecko layout engine used by Firefox. Development can seem erratic due to lack of resources but K-Meleon has seen continuous development since the 90's (v0.7 was released in 2003).

K-Meleon Portable also available from PortableApps.com.

Goanna engine version is 100% PWA able, but you need to save "link" manually (no "install to desktop" support).

It is a 51.4mb minimal install to USB drive vs Palemoon's 73.5mb.

Opera@USB is lighter at 18.1mb, but can no longer load youtube, and can not handle PWA apps

Correction & Note:

TL;DR: K-Melon Goanna engine is the LIGHTEST PWA ABLE WEBBROWSER @ 51mb on USB ready to use

CORRECTION:

K-Melon Goanna engine UPX'ed single language & default skin only = 51mb (53,566,636 bytes), making it the lightest PWA app able web browser avaible as of 2020-11-15

NOTE:

Gecko engine & Presto engine webbrowsers no longer load youtube, not will D-plus (dillo for windows) QtWeb or Netsuft (very sad)

K-melon (goanna version), then palemoon (current to "many" firefox extensions) & last, seamonkey (heaviest light but current to "almost all" firefox extensions) are lightest non-trident (IE11+, like Avante browser) that load Youtube & web sites with HTTP5; 100% CORRECTLY

Every https page fails with certificate errors in K-Meleon for some reason.
