[Issue]: Parsing empty domain attributes in cookies
by Julian Jørgensen June 6, 2026

June 6, 2026

Hi Dillo devs, Thanks for a great browser :-). I'm having great fun using it for accessing smaller sites. However, I might have found a minor issue with the way it handles cookies. I'm not very familiar with browser, so the problem is most likely on the site I'm trying to access. I use this pretty popular search engine called kagi.com. They have a html mode, which I enjoy testing in browsers like Dillo. The problem is that their session cookie is saved with an empty domain like so: `Domain=;`. As far as I can understand from [1], it seems that this should result in Dillo (the user agent?) ignoring this key/value pair. However, Dillo will parse the domain as "", which will fail the domain/host verification later in the program. I have attached a git formatted patch to demonstrate the issue. After applying this change, the kagi.com page works like I would expect. Best regards, Julian Jørgensen [1]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6265#section-5.2.3

[PATCH] Add user-controllable Sec-GPC header
by a1ex＠dismail.de May 2, 2026

May 2, 2026

Hi, The attached patch adds a Sec-GPC header to Dillo. It defaults to ON, and is controllable through a dillorc setting of 'http_sec_gpc'. Also, I changed DNT to be user-controllable with a dillorc setting of 'http_dnt', also defaults to ON. I know that this is too late to get in for the 3.3.0 release, but I'm sending it for review now, and if there are any issues it should allow plenty of time to fix. Regards, Alex

A new SearXNG search randomizer for Dillo
by a1ex＠dismail.de April 25, 2026

April 25, 2026

Hi, I have created a directory and search redirector for unofficial SearXNG instances. These are instances which do not appear on 'searx.space' or 'farside.link'. They usually seem to work better than the official ones, due to the fact that they aren't as highly publicized and have less load. The directory is here: https://alex.envs.net/searxng.html This link will automatically send you to a random instance: https://alex.envs.net/searx-rand.sh Finally, you can search directly from Dillo using a random instance by putting the following line into your dillorc: search_url="us UnScripted https://alex.envs.net/search.sh?%s" If anyone has links to additional SearXNG instances which I have not covered, and are not present on the official list, please let me know! Keep in mind that the instance must work without JavaScript! Regards, Alex

[PATCH] Remove deprecated DNT header
by a1ex＠dismail.de April 15, 2026

April 15, 2026

Hi, The 'Do Not Track' header has been abandoned by W3C and most major browsers. Very few advertising companies actually supported DNT. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_Not_Track Sending this header may actually make Dillo MORE trackable. The attached patch removes it. Regards, Alex

[Feat. req.?]: Diacritic-sensitive search (Ctrl+Find)
by Juan M Sevilla April 13, 2026

April 13, 2026

Hi, It would be great if, as there is a case-sensitive search, there were a diacritic-sensitive option. In fact, I would expect by default that if I search for "esta", Dillo would also find "ésta". Another example would be searching for "accion" that matches both singular "acción" (with accent) and plural "acciones" (without accent). That's Spanish specific, but we may want that for any language, i.e. several diactritical marks: ` ^ ´ ¸ ¨ I don't know how hard it would be to implement, just wanted to mention it as a useful feature. As a good news, I wanted to say that, with the experimental fltk-1.4 flavor, I can use my preferred font (Atkinson Hyperlegible Next) and all absent glyphs are displayed accordingly —a bit off the line I should say, but I knew graphical glitches are to be expected. Best regards!
