Min 1.31 Released as a New Bug Fix Update for Lightweight Browser

Min 1.31 introduces the ability to select and manage multiple tabs seamlessly, streamlining your browsing tasks.

Min, the most underrated lightweight web browser, has released 1.31 as a minor update to the current stable series. Min comes with features such as optimized tab spaces, unique tab list view, fading effect and so on.

Min is designed to enhance productivity while minimizing distractions. Integration with DuckDuckGo and support for fuzzy search contribute to swift and efficient navigation, further setting Min apart in the competitive browser market.

One of Min’s notable features is its commitment to user privacy and efficiency. The browser incorporates ad and tracker blocking, ensuring faster and more private browsing sessions. In situations where internet connections are slow or expensive, Min allows users to block scripts and images, effectively reducing page load times and data consumption. Moreover, Min is engineered for speed and energy efficiency, consuming less battery power for extended usage.
