Why do you think it's dead? Most recent update is 3 days ago.


Even if Luakit itself is getting commits, last I checked the underlying webkit code it's based on doesn't get security updates, so as much as I would like to use it; it's really not a good idea: https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2016/02/01/on-webkit-secu...


It appears that mason-larobina has ressurected it. There are a bunch of commits then it's nothing until 2014.


Yes, there were a few commits recently, but doesn't look like it's suddenly awesome again.

That said, I really have to try it again.

I used to use it extensively (1-2 years ago) as one of my off-browsers (prefer that to profiles) but at some point most bigger websites (like Facebook) were wonky.


True, but not a lot of contributors these days it seems.
