Zen Browser has recently launched version 1.17.4b, enhancing the user experience by balancing speed, privacy, and productivity. This update introduces several new features, including an "unload space" context menu item that allows users to easily clear tabs in a specific space. Additionally, users can now customize their browsing experience through the about:config page, where they can adjust the number of essential features and change the layout in fullscreen mode.
This latest version also addresses numerous issues from previous builds. Notably, it corrects a bug related to the incorrect version of ffmpeg that impacted AUR users and resolves a problem with the compact mode, which previously left certain elements visible, cluttering the interface. Furthermore, the update improves the media controller's performance, which had been causing slowdowns when displayed, and fixes a bug that caused Zen Browser to freeze when "switch space automatically" was enabled alongside automatic container add-ons.
Overall, Zen Browser version 1.17.4b aims to provide a smoother and faster web browsing experience, making it a more reliable choice for users seeking efficiency and privacy online.
Looking ahead, future updates may focus on further enhancing the customization options for users, integrating new privacy features, and optimizing performance even more. With a commitment to user feedback and ongoing development, Zen Browser is poised to continue evolving and meet the diverse needs of its user base
