# epiphany web browser

# - touch-based scroll works well (for moby)
# - URL bar constantly resets cursor to the start of the line as i type

# XXX(2023/07/08): running on moby without `WEBKIT_DISABLE_SANDBOX...` fails, with:
# - `bwrap: Can't make symlink at /var/run: File exists`
# this could be due to:
# - epiphany is somewhere following a symlink into /var/run instead of /run
# - (nothing in `env` or in this repo touches /var/run)
# - no xdg-desktop-portal is installed (unlikely)
#
# a few other users have hit this, in different contexts:
# - <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-builder/-/issues/1164>
# - <https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3477>
# - <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/197085>
#
# TODO: consider `WEBKIT_USE_SINGLE_WEB_PROCESS=1` for better perf
# - this runs all tabs in 1 process. which is fine, if i'm not a heavy multi-tabber
