Cloudflare is turning off the internet for me

I always recommend setting custom user-agents for a problematic page instead of setting them globally.

For the Google issue, qutebrowser v1.9.0 does that already, see https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/5182

So can do Falkon :)

Having a Chrome UA is a MUST on webkit based browsers if you want Google's taxing services such as Earth/Maps/Gmail and so on being faster and smoother than ever. Seriously.

Once you open Street View on luakit/vimb with a Chrome UA, the diff is night and day.

I tried with Street View im vimb. I don't see any difference - it's slow to the point of being almost unusable, while it works fine in qutebrowser.

on ~/.config/vimb/config

    set hardware-aceleration-policy=always

    set webgl=true

That seems to help, but I still don't see a difference with/without a Chrome UA.

Try a mobile Chrome UA, such as the one for a recent Galaxy Tab.
