Web browsers have taken over the desktop. For many people, the browser is the most used application, which is why it’s so important to choose a stable browser that suits all your needs. Linux users can pick from a dozen web browsers of different kinds – from lightweight and command-line to cross-platform and extremely extensible ones.

3. Opera

Conkeror is a representative of the wave of minimalist, keyboard-driven GUI browsers. Vimperator was an attempt to transform Firefox into a Vim-like environment. Conkeror, on the other hand, is inspired by the Emacs approach. This is reflected not only in keyboard shortcuts, but also the inherent extensibility. Many Firefox extensions work with Conkeror, and you can customize its appearance with simple CSS scripts. It’s a great browser for programmers and fans of mouse-less browsing. Conkeror is not related to Konqueror; it’s based on Mozilla’s technologies.
