I can recommend Vaadin[1]. It feels like a successor to GWT, feels natural for backend develops and looks similar to Swing.
A big component library is included and it offers binding for Typscript webcomponents (there's a frontend-centric variant of the framework named Hilla too).
Frontend states are held in a backend session, so it's safe for manipulations but i'd only recommend it for management UIs.
And here we are... that's why AdBlockPlus isn't reliable anymore. They started with helping the user getting rid of all the ad-ridden websites and now they are monetizing it (not that it is wrong, but there should be another way - they are crippling their product).
Currently I'm using uBlock on all browsers using EasyList blocklists on all browsers.
We have ~10.000 selenium- and htmlunit-tests, run on multiple VMs to test against our product.
Writing and maintaining tests is quite good due to a lot of helper classes, but test-execution needs ~24h.
Currently we are trying to decrease the number of ui tests and increase component tests which should run a lot faster.
IMHO the Raspberry Pi brings a lot of processing power - depending on what you'll do, that might be more than enough.
It brings a lot of addon-boards, tutorials and a good community, so it might be a good starting point.
Well there are 2 features I really miss in Chromium (which are implemented in Opera now):
* easily Add/remove websites from the speeddial
* closing the last tab won't quit the browser (this annoyed me the most)
Furthermore "...to find his bed surrounded by police officers. Automatic weapons were pointing at his head..." - that doesn't sound like Germany. Guns are only drawn if you are visibly armed.
Frontend states are held in a backend session, so it's safe for manipulations but i'd only recommend it for management UIs.
