- <p>You're using qutebrowser with the QtWebKit backend.</p>
-
--<p>While QtWebKit has gained some traction again recently, its latest release
--(5.212.0 Alpha 3) is still based on an old upstream WebKit. It also lacks
--various security features (process isolation/sandboxing) present in
--QtWebEngine. From the upstream release notes:</p>
--
- <blockquote>WARNING: This release is based on old WebKit revision with known
- unpatched vulnerabilities. Please use it carefully and avoid visiting untrusted
- websites and using it for transmission of sensitive data. Wait for new release
- from qtwebkit-dev branch to use it with untrusted content.</blockquote>

--<p>It's recommended that you use QtWebEngine instead.</p>
--
--<h2>(Outdated) reasons to use QtWebKit</h2>
--<p>Most reasons why people preferred the QtWebKit backend aren't relevant anymore:</p>
--
--<p><b>PDF.js support</b>: Supported with QtWebEngine since qutebrowser v1.5.0.</p>
--
--<p><b>Missing control over Referer header</b>: <span
--class="mono">content.headers.referer</span> is supported with QtWebEngine since
--qutebrowser v1.5.0.</p>
--
--<p><b>Missing control over cookies</b>: With Qt 5.11 or newer, the <span
--class="mono">content.cookies.accept</span> setting works on QtWebEngine.</p>
--
--<p><b>Graphical glitches</b>: The new values for the <span
--class="mono">qt.force_software_rendering</span> setting added in v1.4.0 should
--hopefully help.</p>
--
--<p><b>Missing support for notifications</b>: With qutebrowser v1.7.0, initial
--notification support was added for Qt 5.13.0.</p>
--
--<p><b>Resource usage</b>: qutebrowser v1.5.0 added the <span
--class="mono">qt.process_model</span> and <span
--class="mono">qt.low_end_device_mode</span> settings which can be used to
--decrease the resource usage of QtWebEngine (but come with other drawbacks).</p>
--
--<p><b>Not trusting Google</b>: Various people have checked the connections made
--by QtWebEngine/qutebrowser, and it doesn't make any connections to Google (or
--any other unsolicited connections at all). Arguably, having to trust Google
--also is a smaller issue than having to trust every website you visit because of
--heaps of security issues...</p>
--
--<p><b>Nouveau graphic driver</b>: You can use QtWebEngine with software
--rendering. With Qt 5.13 (~May 2019) it might be possible to run with Nouveau
--without software rendering.</p>
--
--<p><b>Wayland</b>: It's possible to use QtWebEngine with XWayland. With Qt
--5.11.2 or newer, qutebrowser also runs natively with Wayland.</p>
--
--<p><b>Instability on FreeBSD</b>: Those seem to be FreeBSD-specific crashes,
--and unfortunately nobody has looked into them yet so far...</p>
--
--<p><b>QtWebEngine being unavailable in ArchlinuxARM's PyQt package</b>:
--QtWebEngine itself is available on the armv7h/aarch64 architectures, but their
--PyQt package is broken and doesn't come with QtWebEngine support. This
--<a href="https://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=11269&p=54587">has
--been reported</a> in their forums, but without any change so far. It should
--however be possible to rebuild the PyQt package from source with QtWebEngine
--installed.</p>
--
--<p><b>QtWebEngine being unavailable on Parabola</b>: Claims of Parabola
--developers about QtWebEngine being "non-free" have repeatedly been disputed,
--and so far nobody came up with solid evidence about that being the case. Also,
--note that their qutebrowser package is usually very outdated (even qutebrowser
--security fixes took months to arrive there). You might be better off chosing an
--<a href="https://qutebrowser.org/doc/install.html#tox"> alternative install
--method</a>.</p>
--
--<p><b>White flashing between loads with a custom stylesheet</b>: This doesn't
--seem to happen with <span class="mono">qt.process_model = single-process</span>
--set. However, note that that setting comes with decreased security and
--stability, but QtWebKit doesn't have any process isolation at all.</p>
