Midori Browser 11.9 arrives with more customization, privacy and performance

Web browsing shouldn’t force us to choose between performance, privacy, and personalization. With Midori Browser 11.9, we’re taking another step toward a browser that delivers all three in a faster, more consistent, and personalized experience.

This update represents much more than a visual change. Midori 11.9 incorporates a revamped Control Center, new themes and textures, significant improvements to vertical tabs, more stable workspaces, optimized web panels, and deeper visual integration with Midori New Tab. It also updates Midori Privacy, our ad and tracker blocker, with improvements to list processing, cosmetic rules, and blocking on platforms like YouTube.

Improvements include fewer unnecessary recurring processes, on-demand component loading, better cache management, and various fixes related to the address bar, automatic tab hiding, and different tab positions. These changes help create a more stable and efficient browsing experience for everyday use.

Chromium-based browsers like Opera, Brave, Vivaldi, and Chrome each have their own Sync service, their own closed and non-interoperable standard. Firefox-based browsers depend solely on Firefox Sync. Mozilla’s telemetry is present, Google’s is present, and attempting to deploy Firefox Sync on a private server is something no human or AI has been able to do because it’s not designed for humans; it’s an undocumented process. But that’s changing, and today we’re launching Midori Sync, the Sync system for Gecko/Firefox-based browsers that is interoperable, compatible, updatable, open source, and features strong encryption.

But what is Midori Sync?

As you know, Midori Browser is a browser based on Gecko/Firefox It is characterized by being lightweight, fast, secure, private, customizable, and having powerful features such as its own VPN and Adblocker. However, there was one feature that was still bothering us, making us uncomfortable: our continued dependence on Mozilla, specifically Sync. All browsers based on Gecko/Firefox rely on it, its telemetry, and its components. That’s what Midori Sync is: a completely new alternative to the Firefox ecosystem, designed to improve this critical and fundamental feature.
