I've been thinking of switching over to Voyager, but I heard that Voyager was built on elements from Chrome. As a layman what does this mean? (lemmy.world)

Is using Voyager giving Chrome an opportunity to harvest user data? I'll take whatever you know about the Voyager dependence on chrome.

I’m pretty happy with the PWA. What sort of specific improvements does “native functionality” bring?

[-] Cqrd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 11 months ago

Haptic feedback and the status bar being able to match color right now. Not sure if there’s anything else right now, but man the app feels so much nicer with haptic feedback.

The back swipe / scroll bug is also fixed.

For me it’s better, but not gone entirely

Yeah I still see brief locks, but they resolve much quicker

[-] LeanFemurs@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Right on, that does sound pretty cool. I may check it out.

I do have haptic feedback when using Voyager with Vanadium. I haven't tested anything else but I don't see how that isn't possible.
