Lots of browsers are mentioned in this thread, before clicking each one it might be nice to know a few things like whether it's open source and how development is sustained.

It seems to be a similar project. I encountered it as one of the best browsers currently running on OpenBSD. In particular it doesn't slowly leak memory over a period of weeks and get really slow like Firefox does on that platform[1].
