I prefer Falkon's history over most other histories. It does work like
the very old Firefox history. If you click a link in the history the
cursor stays there and you can click the next link close to it. Newer
versions of Firefox, Chrome and Chrome based browsers drop the position
and jump on top of the history, so you need to search another two hours
just to get back to the same position in the history again and click the
next link.

However, in other domains Falkon can't compete with Firefox, let alone
Chrome or Chromium based browsers. Web site developers usually ensure
that their sites work properly with Firefox, Chrome and Chromium forks.

As a former QupZilla user I like Falkon, but it can't be used to surf
the whole Internet.
