Cons
Con Weak multimedia support
It has some issues with multimedia content eg. Non-playing videos on webpages.
Con Now under the KDE umbrella
Qupzilla is now discontinued and renamed to Falkon. It will also now be a part of KDE and will probably need more dependencies like kde-frameworks in the future.
Con Linux-only
Con Bookmark management not the strongest part
It often requires quite a lot of clicks to add and remove bookmarks.
Con Nobody uses it
Con Not keeping user settings, very unstabile, posible backdoor behaviour
After any browsing session after you exit the app and use a cleaner tool [CCleaner or other] when you start the browser next time, all setting inclusive search engine and security-privacy related is reverted to default... I tested for 2 weeks and don't find any other cause than that is from app internal, is programmed deep in core scripts.
