Got it, thank you for explaining! :)

I've never used Linux full-time, but from my understanding, neither GNOME Web nor Konqueror are Blink-based. Are they missing critical power user features?

The lack or nonstandard support for extensions. But looking into it, I see that it looks like at least Gnome Web now can support extensions. Currently not using Gnome or KDE on my Linux install though.

Not sure if this helps, but according to Wikipedia:

> Despite being a component of GNOME, Web has no dependency on GNOME components, so it can be potentially installed on any system supporting GTK and WebKitGTK.
