10 个适用于 Linux 的开源轻量级网页浏览器
浏览器 轻量级
![](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171334t8u7nan785bt04e2.jpg)


[有很多适用于 Linux 的网页浏览器](https://itsfoss.com/best-browsers-ubuntu-linux/)，其中很多都是基于 [Chromium](https://itsfoss.com/install-chromium-ubuntu/)，但我们也有一个 [不基于 Chromium 的浏览器](https://itsfoss.com/open-source-browsers-linux/) 的列表。


最近，一位读者要求推荐一款轻量级网页浏览器，因此我专门做了一些快速实验。以下是我的发现。


### 适用于 Linux 的轻量级网页浏览器


我没有进行任何基准测试，因为可能适用于一个系统的东西可能不适用于其他系统。这篇文章是基于我的经验和观点。


还有一点需要注意的是，一些轻量级网页浏览器的扩展功能可能有限。如果你依赖账户同步等功能并使用大量的浏览器扩展，这些浏览器可能无法满足你的需要。但是，你仍然可以尝试使用其中一些作为你的辅助浏览器。


还有一件事！这不是一个排名表。排名第二的浏览器不应该被认为比排名第五的更好。

#### 1、Viper（蝰蛇）


![Viper](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171445ue237vt8ajv8u2y7.png)


该浏览器专注于隐私、极简主义和定制，已成为一个强大的轻量级浏览器，在这里你可以进行你想要的一切搜索。在我看来，它是一个必不可少的浏览器，具有标签休眠支持、安全自动填写管理、全屏支持等基本功能。


这不是一个普通的浏览器，但如果你是一个极简主义的粉丝，也许这个浏览器适合你。

#### 2、Nyxt


![Nyxt](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171447v3zf7korrssyimoi.png)


“黑客的强力浏览器” 是 [Nyxt](https://itsfoss.com/nyxt-browser/) 的官方网页对它自己的描述；说实话，它很不错。


尽管它不是唯一面向键盘的网页浏览器；它的独特之处在于，你可以在这个浏览器中覆盖和重新配置每一个类、方法和函数。它也有一个内置的命令行工具。难怪它被称为“黑客的强力浏览器”。


Nyxt 使用的是一个简单的计算机编程环境，它接受单一的用户输入，执行它们，并将结果返回给用户；就像最著名的 [REPL（读取-评估-打印循环）](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read%E2%80%93eval%E2%80%93print_loop) 一样。

#### 3、Lynx（猞猁）


![Lynx](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171448x7bu5rnwmmurr3qs.png)


我肯定会说这是为 [命令行](https://itsfoss.com/gui-cli-tui/) 爱好者准备的，因为这个神奇的浏览器可以让你 [从你的 Linux 终端上网](https://itsfoss.com/terminal-web-browsers/)。没错！你可以在你的终端中启动它来轻松访问互联网。


当然，它消耗的资源更少，但你不应该指望获得从 Firefox 或 Brave 等常规浏览器中相同的浏览体验。


你知道吗？这是一个最古老的网络浏览器，它始于 1992 年，至今仍在维护。

#### 4、SeaMonkey（海猴）


![SeaMonkey](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171449cw7glmmpll5gh972.png)


这个是另一个多合一的导航器，但 SeaMonkey 包括什么呢？SeaMonkey 增加了电子邮件客户端、网站内容源阅读器、HTML 编辑器、IRC 聊天和网络开发工具等特性，以及其他一些特性。


我想说 [SeaMonkey](https://www.seamonkey-project.org/) 是 Firefox 的一个不可思议的复刻，就像 [Librewolf](https://librewolf-community.gitlab.io/)。正如其网页所说，它使用了许多与 Mozilla Firefox 相同的源代码。


* 下载：[SeaMonkey](https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/)


#### 5、Waterfox（水狐）


![Waterfox](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171452gtyky6zukk8yzitt.png)


说实话，当我在个人电脑上试用 Waterfox 浏览器时，我对它的性能和速度感到震惊。我是一个信奉极简主义的人，我想这就是为什么我这么喜欢它。这个浏览器的一个了不起的特点是，它支持 Chrome、Firefox 和 Opera 的扩展。


因此，如果你想尝试一个新的快速、安全的浏览器，而又不离开你最喜欢的扩展，[Waterfox](https://itsfoss.com/waterfox-browser/) 将是一个完美的选择。


* 下载：[Waterfox](https://www.waterfox.net/)


#### 6、Pale Moon（苍月）


![Pale Moon](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171453x5k6coc5ctf555ot.png)


这是另一个基于 Firefox 代码的网页浏览器，具有隐私、安全、完全可定制和针对现代处理器优化等特点。对我来说，一个看起来很有趣的特点是，它继续支持 NPAPI 插件，如 Silverlight、Flash 和 Java。这些插件在其他浏览器（如 Chrome 和微软 Edge）中一直没有得到维护。


在这种情况下，如果你喜欢的一些网页因 Flash 等插件的停止维护而受到影响，也许 [Pale Moon](https://www.palemoon.org/) 可以让它们重新恢复。


* 下载：[Pale Moon](https://linux.palemoon.org/)


#### 7、Falkon


![Falkon](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171455vlzb1171z1pfagwl.png)


[Falkon](https://itsfoss.com/falkon-browser/) 是一个 KDE 浏览器，它与一个叫做 [QtWebEngine](https://wiki.qt.io/QtWebEngine) 的技术一起工作，该技术提供了一个渲染引擎。它包括侧边栏中的书签和历史记录等功能，并默认带来了一个广告拦截器，它可以帮助你防止来自网站的追踪。


顺便说一句，这个浏览器最初只是为了教育目的而开始开发的；但现在，你可以在你的日常生活中使用它。我邀请你尝试它，并与我们分享你的经验。


* 下载：[Falkon](https://www.falkon.org/download/)


#### 8、Epiphany（顿悟）


![GNOME Web](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171458t3ifndpointppsus.png)


这个导航器通常被称为 “GNOME Web”，它是一个专注于 Linux 体验的原生网页浏览器，它有一个简单的用户浏览界面。当然，简单并不意味着功能不强。


它显示网页的技术类似于 Mozilla 项目中使用的布局引擎，它最重要的一些特点是：


* 可定制的用户界面
* 有 60 多种语言版本
* Cookie 管理
* 用于执行命令、Python 脚本、分组标签、选择你的样式表的扩展


如果你正在寻找一个简单而简约的浏览器，并且专门针对 Linux，那就是它了。


* 下载：[GNOME Web](https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Web)


#### 9、Otter（水獭）


![Otter](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171459xqfscmfi3isifiki.png)


如果你还记得几年前 [Opera](https://itsfoss.com/install-opera-ubuntu/) 12 的模样，这个浏览器会让你想起这个用户界面。这个浏览器的主要目的是为实验用户提供强大的工具，而不影响他们继续浏览。


我注意到的一些有趣和重要的事情是，社区对持续贡献源代码的承诺，以改进这个浏览器。


如果你在 Linux 中浏览时正在寻找一个快速、安全和强大的浏览器，这个是一个不错的选择。


* 下载：[Otter](https://github.com/OtterBrowser/otter-browser/blob/master/INSTALL.md)


#### 10、Midori（日文的“翠绿”）


![Midori](/data/attachment/album/202202/21/171501mgjazqg9gj6r9qgq.png)


以前有一个流行的浏览器叫 Midori，但在它与 [Astian 项目](https://astian.org/en/midori-browser/) 合并后，它的发展方向发生了变化。然而，由于 Snap 商店的存在，你仍然可以在你的 Linux 发行版上安装它。


它的三个最强大的功能是：


* 支持 Adblock 过滤列表
* 隐私浏览
* 管理 Cookie 和脚本


但真正让我震惊的是，它可以让你瞬间打开 1000 个标签，并能轻松创建网页应用；这后两个事实是来自 [它在 Snapcraft 的页面](https://snapcraft.io/midori)。


* 下载：[Midori](https://snapcraft.io/midori)


### 结论


记住，找到完美的浏览器将取决于你的需要和资源。总的来说，这一切都要归结为适合你的东西。


使用 [轻量级应用程序](https://itsfoss.com/lightweight-alternative-applications-ubuntu/) 是当你的系统在硬件方面处于低水平时获得更好的计算体验的一种方式。


我避开了其他一些浏览器，比如 [Brave 或 Vivaldi](https://itsfoss.com/brave-vs-vivaldi/)，因为我的重点是在 Linux 上不太流行的轻量级网页浏览器。如果你知道还有一些你经常使用的浏览器，请在评论区提到它们。


如果这篇文章对你有帮助，请花点时间在社交媒体上分享；你也可以对开源有所作为。

There are [plenty of web browsers available for Linux](https://itsfoss.com/best-browsers-ubuntu-linux/). A lot of them are based on [Chromium](https://itsfoss.com/install-chromium-ubuntu/) but we also have a list of [browsers that are not based on Chromium](https://itsfoss.com/open-source-browsers-linux/).

Recently, a reader asked for a lightweight web browsers recommendation and hence I took the responsibility of doing some quick experimentation. Here’s what I found.

## Lightweight web browsers for Linux

I did not run any benchmark test because what may work on one system may not work on others. This article is based on my experience and opinion.

Another thing to keep in mind is that some lightweight web browsers may have limited extensions. If you rely on features like account synchronization and uses tons of browser extensions, these browsers may not suffice your need. However, you could still try some of them to have as your secondary browser.

*One more thing! This is not a ranking list. The browser at number 2 should not be considered better than the one at number 5.*

### 1. Viper

![viper](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/Viper-800x459.png)

Focusing on privacy, minimalism, and customization, this browser has become a powerful lightweight place where you can do every search you want. It is, in my opinion, an essential navigator with basic features like tab hibernation support, secure AutoFill management, full-screen support, among others.

This is not a regular browser, but if you’re a fan of minimalism, perhaps this one is for you.

### 2. Nyxt

![nyxt](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/Nyxt-800x459.png)

“The hacker’s power-browser” is how the official page of [Nyxt](https://itsfoss.com/nyxt-browser/) describes it; and being honest, it is wonderful.

Even though it is not the only keyboard-oriented web browser around; its unique feature is that you can overwrite and reconfigure every single class, method, and function inside this one. It also has a built-in command line tool. No wonder why it is called “The hacker’s power-browser”.

Nyxt uses a simple computer programming environment that takes single user inputs, executes them, and returns the result to the user; most famous as [RELP (read-eval-print loop)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reliable_Event_Logging_Protocol?ref=itsfoss.com).

### 3. Lynx

![lynx 2](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/Lynx-2-800x458.png)

I definitely would say this one is for the [CLI](https://itsfoss.com/gui-cli-tui/) fans because this amazing browser lets you [surf the internet from your Linux terminal](https://itsfoss.com/terminal-web-browsers/). That’s right! You can easily access the internet by starting it in your terminal.

Of course, it consumes less resources but you should not expect same kind of browsing experience you get from regular browsers like Firefox or Brave.

*Did you know this is the oldest web browser still being maintained, having started in 1992?*

### 4. SeaMonkey

![seamonkey 1](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/SeaMonkey-1-800x459.png)

This one is another all-in-one navigator, but what does SeaMonkey include? SeaMonkey adds characteristics like an email client, web feed reader, HTML editor, IRC chat, and web development tools; among other features.

I would say [SeaMonkey](https://www.seamonkey-project.org/?ref=itsfoss.com) is an incredible fork of Firefox like [Librewolf](https://librewolf-community.gitlab.io/?ref=itsfoss.com). It uses much of the same Mozilla Firefox source code, as its web page said.

### 5. Waterfox

![waterfox 1](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/waterfox-1-800x459.png)

To be honest, when I tried this browser on my personal computer, I was shocked about how good and fast it was. I am a fan of minimalism and I guess that is why I like it so much. One awesome characteristic of this browser is that it supports Chrome, Firefox, and Opera extensions.

So if you are thinking about trying a new fast, and secure browser without leaving your favorite extensions, [Waterfox](https://itsfoss.com/waterfox-browser/) would be a perfect choice.

### 6. Pale Moon

![palemoon](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/palemoon-800x459.png)

This one is another web browser based on Firefox code with characteristics like privacy, security, fully customizable, and optimized for modern processors. The one feature that looks interesting for me is that it continues supporting NPAPI plugins like Silverlight, Flash, and Java. Plugins that have been unmaintained in other browsers like Chrome and Microsoft Edge.

In this case, if some of your favorite web pages were affected by the stopped maintenance of plugins like flash, perhaps [Pale Moon](https://www.palemoon.org/?ref=itsfoss.com) could revive them.

### 7. Falkon

![falkon 1](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/falkon-1-800x459.png)

[Falkon](https://itsfoss.com/falkon-browser/) is a KDE navigator which works with a technology called [QtWebEngine](https://wiki.qt.io/QtWebEngine?ref=itsfoss.com) which provides a rendering engine. It includes features like bookmarks and history in the sidebar and by default brings an ads blocker; which can help you to prevent tracking from websites.

One random fact about this browser is that it originally started only for educational purposes; but these days, you can use it for your daily routine. I invite you to try it and share with us your experience.

### 8. Epiphany

![gnome web](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/GNOME-Web-800x458.png)

This navigator is most commonly known as GNOME Web, and it is a native web browser focused on Linux experience, which has a simple user interface for browsing. Of course, simple doesn’t mean less powerful.

Its technology to display web pages is similar to the layout engine used in the Mozilla project, and some of its most important features are:

- Customizable user interface
- Availability in more than 60 languages
- Cookie management
- Extensions to execute commands, python scripts, group tabs, select your stylesheet, etc.

If you’re looking for a simple and minimalist browser with is focused specifically on Linux, this is the one.

### 9. Otter

![otter](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/Otter-800x459.png)

If you remember how [Opera](https://itsfoss.com/install-opera-ubuntu/) 12 used to look like some years ago, this navigator will remind you of this user interface. The principal purpose of this browser is to provide powerful tools for experiment users while they keep browsing.

Something interesting and important that I noticed was the continued commitment to the source code from the community to improve this browser.

This one is a good option if you are looking for a fast, secure, and robust one at the time of browsing in Linux.

### 10. Midori Web Browser

![midori](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2021/11/Midori-800x458.png)

There used to be a popular browser called Midori but its development has changed course after its merger with[ Astian project](https://astian.org/en/midori-browser/?ref=itsfoss.com). However, you can still install it on your Linux distro thanks to the snap store.

Its three most powerful features are:

- Adblock filter list support.
- Private browsing.
- Manage cookies and scripts.

But something that really got me shocked was that it lets you open 1000 tabs instantly and create easy web apps; these last two facts are according to [its page in Snapcraft](https://snapcraft.io/midori?ref=itsfoss.com).

## Conclusion

Remember, finding the perfect browser will depend on your necessities and resources. Overall, it all comes down to what suits you.

Using [lightweight applications](https://itsfoss.com/lightweight-alternative-applications-ubuntu/) is one way to have a better computing experience when your system is low on the hardware side.

I have avoided some other browsers like [Brave or Vivaldi](https://itsfoss.com/brave-vs-vivaldi/) because my focus was on less popular, lightweight web browsers on Linux. If you know a few more that you use regularly, please mention them in the comment section.
