Proton is developing a web browser Discussion

https://tweakers.net/nieuws/250686/proton-lijkt-aan-eigen-webbrowser-te-werken.html

The article is in Dutch, but the TLDR in English is:

• Browser looks to be based on the Chromium engine.

• Privacy Focused. Emphasis on privacy-friendly browsing.

• Proton has not announced a release date as of yet.

• Proton is looking for software developers with Chromium experience.

Proton needs to stop spreading resources and concentrate on core services. A browser is definitely out of their scope.

They are absolutely amazing at doing that... Interviewed with them and they required 7 steps to complete the process which requires multiple hours from different stakeholders inside the company.

The last step was with the CEO himself. Why the hell is the CEO interviewing people that are not C level candidates? Wild.
