| It looks good so far. Is it based on the latest Webkit? |

| That’s great news! Having a capable web browser is a must even for classic/retro computing machinery.

| Congrats, this is great news! I do wonder how this is powered. It be a nice surprise if this is a 100% native port of a web browser, thats a lot of work, but my spider senses think it maybe some kinda of Rabbit Hole / AmiFox system.
Plus I saw the video of it playing the Youtube, looks just a bit slow, I did think that would be the case, as my Pi400 Amikit+Rabbit hole, would drop the odd frame, and thats a 40% more power device than this. The Pi5 however solves this.
This is why I hope Amigakit consider doing Amibench for more high end Orange Pi 5 boards that be more than capable of doing things like this.
Plus more power, may even allow AmigaOS4 running in emulation. I was surprised when I saw this video of OS4 running on Pi5, fairly smoothly

But still this is great news.

No this is not using the Rabbit Hole feature and is not using the method that AmiFox uses. It is a 68K/ARM library hybrid browser built in MUI (Zune compatible). It has been 6 weeks of intense development so far to get to this point.
It is not optimised yet. We wanted to get it first stable. functional and eliminate any bugs before proceeding with optimisation.
We will release it soon for A600 GS and the A1200 NG users to preview but without file download support and a few other features which are coming in September.
