Use this version, SSL actually works on it: https://www.cy2.uk/netsurf.lha

Whether it works reliably is another matter. It's pretty stable on my MiSTer, provided the latest AmiSSL is installed. Others have reported problems.


Actually this version is only for OS4 not for 68k :)

Unfortunately this version is broken on AOS3 the picture/background rendering is completely broken.
Pity as its the first netsurf for AOS3 that has a proper menu with Preferences etc..
The only versions that are *almost* working onn AOS are 3.10 that is very slow and 3.9. both are crashing demons thought. It is very difficult to browse more than 3-4 pages without stop responding with my PiStorm32 with Pi3A+
From the other hand its the only browser on AOS3 that support CSS, ibrowse 3 is a polished amiga browser but lucking CSS makes the price for me not worthy. otherwise I would bought it in a heartbeat.

I know it's unhelpful but it "works here". Images are generally broken on 8-bit screen modes, but still useable.

It's still labelled as a beta for a reason!

If you can track down the problems you are having then patches will be welcome. However I'm not seeing most of the issues here that others are - which makes it difficult to debug.

I'm using stock caffeine OS with Pistorm32, screen mode is 1024x768 32bit via videocore RTG. Is there a page where I can send a bug report? I'm back on the amiga after a decade and I have excitement to help wherever I can.
