it can show a basic unbloated news site from my contry it can show lwn.net it can show HN it can show old popular local forum it can show rss feeds it automatically blocks (does not work on) all the popular social networks -- what else is there?

Unfortunately, with it's use of Swift code, QT (which is now a bloated piece of trash since version 5) etc. It's just not tenable unless they give us a pure version without that shit
QT I can see how it is disturbing. Swift I can not see how it would bloat anything for end users. It’s just another compiled language.
Compared to WinUI, Android, iOS, GTk3+, let alone Electron, is there even a reason to hate/fear Qt past-2010 or so?
