It has some issues with multimedia content eg. Non-playing videos on webpages.

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 Backed by github.com
GitHub is known for making the ad blocker, libre, and hosting such open source users such as tech pros. This browser was just made to make it more private than Firefox. However, it might crash.
Con Outdated Firefox fork
Even 1 Firefox user doesn't recommend dot browser because it lacks many privacy features.
Con Logs browsing data to Google/Microsoft
According to their privacy policy, they log all the websites to Google and Microsoft browsers in clicks.
Con Another bloatware of Mozilla Firefox
This browser discribes itself as a open source browser but it is bloatware. It is a rip off of Mozilla Firefox which is said to be a RAM eater and github tracks you along the internet.
