What is Reddit's opinion of
Puffin Web Browser?
From 3.5 billion Reddit comments
10 reviews of this app found across Reddit:
You can be earning a lot more from a Raspberry Pi. Just use a lightweight browser like Puffin and utilize more AutoSurfers.
Honestly, I would stay away from Tor if possible. There is a reason law enforcement uses programs such as Authentic8 to search the dark web. If you are looking to remain more secure and fairly private (not 100%), then I recommend Puffin Incognito Browser for Android users only. The web browser operates in the cloud and doesn’t allow access to any mechanisms on the device.
I would suggest your Grammy use Puffins Incognito Browser to isolate her computer from the web. With it, you can relax knowing her computer is immune to most endpoint compromises.
as far as im aware of neopets is in the process of converting thier stuff to html5
​
you can use puffin browser pro to play flash games from the google play store but the experience is unfortunately absolute crap but thats your best option for now
​
well you can use the puffin browser here it unfortuanly costs money and a montly subsriction is something you have to pay for puffin browser is probably going to be your best bet as puffin will support flash games past 2020
​
there is also cheerpx for flash thats also another option but they have not realesed thier software yet but you will probably enjoy it once they actually realese it
I believe you can with Puffin TV? I am new to the ecosystem so I am not sure. I just know I liked it as a browser formatted for TV use. Not sure of its limitations yet, as I really haven't browsed the much on my TV?
But I was assuming I could do what you are proposing to get a few apps down the road.
If you are asking if there is a browser by default installation, not. Probably not until they decide it worth making a version of Chrome for TV.

Puffin pro isn't supported anymore (but still around) and hasn't had an update in 4 years now, all other apps with flash support are retired since long. No telling when apple pulls the app completely or it breaks totally. Even puffin themselves recommend not using it.
You know what? You should also read up on how Puffin works under the hood, it is in no way close to say it just proxies the content.
I use a 3b to write in libreoffice on a lubuntu 16.04 install on the 3b with qupzilla to use the web. If you strip all addons but Ublock from Chromium, it's def usable for Gmail and Docs and other Gapps that don't work in qupzilla.
Honestly though, an android tablet with sufficient memory coupled with a Roku tv has made pc/laptop irrelevant to me. I can even use Termux with oh-my-zsh with Hacker's Keyboard for my dev needs, htop et c on my tabs.
I use the 3b as a desktop word processor largely for aesthetic and feels reasons. Love my keyboard for long periods of writing.
That said, use Puffin on your tabs/phones because it uses the Dumb Terminal concept to give you blazing web. Brave ofc for anything you need adblocked.
That's why I mentioned Puffin Web Terminal for rpi, because it offloads everything you do in the browser and can even do Flash for you.
Beautiful thing.

btw, lubuntu is no joke, it beats Raspbian w Pixel DE, and you can even run compton compositor and still idle at 170mb memory usage.
Over hours of usage my temps remain at ~47C on both cpu and gpu. The only time my temps spike is if I do dumb shit like run 3D xscreensaver stuff like the trampoline cow.
Only "issue" is you have to manually configure wpasupplicant to get wifi working but that took all of five minutes in nano
No, they have to maintain different services.

That doesn’t say “it will keep working if you don’t delete it”. It says “we’ll keep it running just long enough for you to get used to a different browser”.
Sure. Since Raspberry Pi computers are basically inexpensive, low-power mini-computers you can use them to do almost anything you would do with a full sized computer.
One passive income stream that's really easy to setup is AutoSurfers. They are programs that automatically visit random websites without you having to do anything except click start. This website has a good explanation of AutoSurfers and a few good ones to try.
All I did was setup the Raspberry Pi, install the Puffin Browser (it's the best browser for Raspberry Pi) then made an account with a few AutoSurfers and just let them run for a month.
Once you have an initial setup you can improve it by using re-starters to automatically close and open your browser when it crashes and other tips like that but when you start out you don't need to worry about it.
Let me know if you have any questions.
