I'm getting lots of invalid https cert warnings from lightning (but not from other browsers on my system like Google Chrome). this is from major sites like amazon.com and duckduckgo which I'm pretty sure have proper https in place. Any ideas about what could be going wrong? If someone was doing mitm on me, presumably that would happen on any browser on my system. My guess is that something has gone awry with IPC or whatever subroutine does signature validation. Let me know what other info would be helpful for debugging this.

Thanks!

The developer hasn't written anything here for a long time and the last update was done a long time ago. I'd be happy to get a statement from anthonycr if there's more development to come or if I'd better look for another browser. That would be a pity, because Lightning has been my favourite browser for a long time. But if nothing happens here anymore, I'll have to change.

I updated the Italian translation, though some terms are still unclear to me, hence I kept them untranslated.

Since I work from mobile, and GitHub is not easily usable by this means, could some maintainer mail me both the English and Italian "strings.xml" files?

He there. I am with the https://guardianproject.info and we like Lightning alot. This PR is for the most basic integration of support for proxying Lightning's webviews through Tor, but it does work. It could be expanded to be a general preference, and include support for other HTTP proxy servers if desired.

Otherwise, we would like to explore adding more privacy-by-default options into Lightning, perhaps make Incognito actually secure/privacy, support encrypted bookmarks, downloads, and more. If you are interested, we'll keep sending PR's, otherwise we can also fork. Up to you!

Regardless, keep up the great work on a nice app!

Hello!

The new version of Lightning 3.2.0.1a crashes directly when I start it.

The older one 3.1.1a starts fine, but sometimes it crashes when using more than one tab. When I use it together with Orbot, after opening two or three websites, the smartphone's RAM memory is completely filled. This makes the phone very very slow. Killing Orbot or Lightning does not free up that memory again.

Here is the logcat of the crash of 3.2.0.1a.

Best regards, Philipp

I installed the free version to try it out and really like the version on google play. When i installed from. F-droid the ui is totally different.

If the interface has changed with you be retaining the old version as well? I actually prefer the interface in 3.0.5a

The last build is from June 2017. I am currently building it myself, but i paid on Google play and also use fdroid.

I have built the dev and scalable-ad-blocking branch on 2018-04-22 I have tested the scalable-ad-blocking builds with API level 28/9.0/pie 27/8.1/oreo 25/7.1.1/nougat

Nevertheless the dev branch should also work on those API levels. Since .apk is not allowed i zipped both builds and uploaded them here.

Hi

I dwnloaded it from fdroid and it is trying to connect to bunch of ips in the range of above ip for no apppearant reason, like no real tabs open. Not sure if it is part of the code or the person compiled embedded malicious code

Thanks

I've noticed if I play HTML5 videos (they wont open using Gallery but it would be great to have such feature) the videos wont play in full screen: video would froze, while sound would continue to play normally. There's no way to continue playing videos, and sometimes app would even crash.

Examples: http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_video_all or any YouTube video.

Note: I don't have flashplayer installed.

Edit: Android 4.2.2 on Prestigio PAP3350DUO.

Hi, I'm running Lightning v 5.1.0.

• With Settings> Ad Block Settings > Block Ads [checked] > Hosts file source > Default hosts: all Yoitube ads are displayed.

• Hosts file source > Remote hosts file > https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt same behaviour

• Downloaded the file from the url above, with sed I changed all instances of 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1 http://termbin.com/3b2p and: Hosts file source >Local hosts file > Selected local file "hosts.txt"

However the browser keeps on selecting:

File: /storage/C8F8-1EB9/Android/data/acr.browser.lightning/files/local_hosts.txt

And there is no way to change that.

Problem

• Allow users to be able to choose their own custom font in the Browser.
• By adding this feature users will have more options to customize the browser.
• It may help remove proprietary fonts from the browser.
• Users can select their custom font from the device itself.
• Some new language/other scripts which are released by Unicode org not supported by older devices, maybe by adding this feature solves the problem.

What will be solved

• Everyone loves fonts, and many browsers don't give the option to change the fonts. • Their are very browsers that support this feature where users are able to change their browser fonts by either uploading their own .ttf font file or by selecting fonts from their device.

Who will benefit from it?

• Benefits many users who wants to customize/change the looks of their browser web content. • May help those people who just root their device for just changing their system font to customize their browser content looks, which is very dangerous and may brick their device. • Newly added language scripts such as Warang Citi (used for writing Ho language) script which is supported from Android 11 system onward only, they have lots of web content in the internet. It leaves old Android version users in the dark, and are excluded from taking the benefit to look for the content in their native language. By giving users the option to choose their fonts, they can at least see their content in their native script in the browser.

Demo

Here user is given an option to select their own font named ComingSoon.ttf from the system.

Or User can select their own custom font from their local storage
