Hello ProductHunters, I'm really excited to launch Dot Browser here and hope you are too! 🥳 I created Dot Browser to stop the endless struggle of adverts in Google Chrome and Firefox, and the amount of memory it needed to run. And thus, Dot Browser was born. Dot uses Material Design to simplify the browsing experience and to give more screen space. We've moved the search box to the interactive overlay, which you can access by clicking on the tab, we've moved your bookmarks, history and your settings all into the neat little overlay. Our mission is to make ad-blockers standard and to make the web a better place for all. 😀

@enderdev You make it easier for companies and people not to get paid for their work. Please, tell me how you can define it as making the web a better place. If you don't like ads, go on websites that don't run ads or that do it in a less-intrusive way. Using an ad-blocker because you find ads annoying is like stealing from a store because the prices are too high. At least acknowledge that, instead of saying that you want to make the web a better place.

@luqa We are adding an option to disable the ad blocker when necessary. We want to make the web a better place by stopping ads which stop the user from doing simple tasks like: reading an article or searching the web.
Luca
@enderdev maybe you should consider the fact that the user can perform a search on the web or read the article because of the ad.

@enderdev @luqa one could make the argument that by blocking adblockers you are cheating the companies who pay for the ads, because you are giving them lower quality impressions.

What's your monetization strategy?

@rogermenhaim I've recently set up this Patreon account, and it's my only source of income from Dot, and I don't run ads in Dot (hence the whole point of this browser).

The open tabs are too dark when you click off of them to open a new tab or to go into the settings or home page. would prefer if the open tabs bar remained a lighter color so the tabs are easier to see and click onto. Really the dark theme is just TOO dark. Even the scroll bar on the right side is very hard to see most time.
