This sounds pretty nice. One of the biggest things qutebrowser lacks right now is noscript-like functionality.

That's something I've wanted for years. All other browsers are just skeletons that rely on addons for any functionality. I mean, uMatrix is great, but it's time to have a browser with some meat on its bones.

Does it have an HTTPS Everywhere-like feature or config yet?

Doesn't seem to as of yet, but it has been talked about here:

There have been some ideas thrown around, but nothing complete as of yet

Hopefully they can include it in the per-domain settings feature. I'm interested in knowing how this config.py will be managed. I imagine someone will make a userscript that scrapes lists used by uBlock Origin, uMatrix, HTTPS Everywhere, etc and drops them in the user config. If proper plugin support is added, you might get a convenient GUI like uMatrix to override on the fly.

config.py sounds very promising. It's nice to see a browser developer working on advanced features rather than trying to simplify everything as much as possible. If this leads to being able to do a lot of the things that firefox addons provide it will be an easy decision to switch to qutebrowser full time.

holy fucking bloat, but this is the new normal.
everything is shit

it's finally happening. now all it needs to do is stop freezing on random intensive sites.

pick one

The config.py is only for more advanced configuration - the mentioned GUI config file will have per-domain settings as well, and there will be commands/keybindings for common scenarios like enabling/disabling javascript for the current host.
