These questions have been amazing in helping me fine tune the plan and also find the perfect development team.

I want to update the community on where I am at with this project. I did this proposal because we were less than a week out from a vote and nothing was posted.

Even though I’m out some cash and time spent hiring different devs to research the project and provide the technical components of the proposal(s) and commit to developing it–I have also been working on a bigger total Brave Browser customization with larger firm (Did not work out)— I am considering closing this proposal and putting my full support behind @joshuef and his impressive proposal.

I am very encouraged by his commitment to the community and level of technical understanding of what needs to be built now…and he can do it cheaper; I think his stretch goals and cost are also amazing. I wanted to put my thoughts out there, since this will leave us with one really strong SAFE browser proposal.

Definitely takes a strong person to admit things like this and do what you think is best for the community overall. Removed ego from the entire equation to make sure the best project comes to life :slight_smile:

And thank you for being the first proposal, and getting the energy going in this area.

A SAFE Network browser is extremely important

Wow, thanks for the support, @MrAnderson! And thanks for putting forward a proposal too.

I’m happy to (hopefully) be able to use my skills for something SAFE at last :smile:

Thank you for putting forward a proposal that makes an easy decision for me. @joshuef I can’t wait to see what you come up with.

I am rescinding this proposal and giving you my full support.

Yeah, you can count me in too ofc. More resources in one place sounds great in this context - you all seem very capable, so probably better to cooperate than compete in this case. Props to all concerned. Just tell me where to send the money. :grin:

I read in the SAFEr browser thread about the Brave browser. Seems to me like a better alternative if it’s true as it says that it supports not only desktop OSs but also Android and iOS. Also, one would want all the capabilities of Chromium which iirc the Brave browser is based on.

Hey folks, just wanted to pop in and mention that Beaker has a plugin system now. No more need to fork it for adding protocols or Web APIs.

Cheers

I’m not talking about scraping the SAFEr proposal but instead adding competition and give the community options. It’s seems that part of the community wants a lot of ad ons and complexity ie cross browser support, mixed content, and .safenet integration and there is another part of the community that’s just wants something simple function ie SAFE: only.

There is no competition because I was under the impression the browser was going to be built by SAFEr project with a clean, simple, design cheaper than my proposal.

If this community cannot stick with a simple proposal, vote, build what was agreed plan, then I will be happy to breath new life into my proposal.

Not everything has to be complicated SAFEnetwork and designed perfectly the first version or all of the worlds humanity will be lost. I’m sure making a simple browser will have an appeal and if it is built on our own then it should get safecoins later.

Contact me if you are interested in building what I previously described. We could work out some kind of multisig wallet (I’d prefer storing value in gold) that will be used to pay dev team directly and for every dollar put in would get a portion of a share in SC rewards later.
