  Chromium:
  -- : Not Qt based
  
  Qupzilla:
  +++ :Qt based, no KDE dependencies
  --: not as widely used as Firefox or Chromium so odd page may not render correctly.
  --: Doesn't support HTML5
  
  Otter Browser:
  +++ :Qt Browser, Opera based, support.
  --- :In Beta, crashes from time to time, doesn't have all the bells and whistles yet.
  
  === Discussion ===
  [gilir] This is a comment
  [ianorlin] I would like to add qupzilla to the discussion as is Qt based without KDE dependencies.
  [israeldahl] +1 qupzilla.  It works very well, and is VERY lightweight, but has occasional problems.
  [DoctorJellyface] My vote goes to Otter Browser. It's Qt, lightweight, and it's based on Opera 12, so it's awesome. Also the support is very quick, but it's still in Beta.
  [silverlion] I'd +1 qupzilla. Using it already in 14.04 and 14.10 with only little crashes and an out of the box Support of flash-player-plugin.
+ [Arcesson] +1 qupzilla. Qt5 based, quite stable and fast. I'm using Qupzilla since a year or so and ist just has little problems with some pages, but this is propably caused by not having an installed flashplayer.
