I've used this. It's fairly decent for displaying pages, although nowhere near as accurate as chromium/firefox based browsers. If you like to customize browsers with enhanced capabilities (plugins) it's lacking. Also the adblocker is (IMO) far too basic. I like fine-grained control (umatrix), and a basic adblocker like what is included doesn't work for me at all, so I don't even keep midori installed, much less ever use it.

Its a nice alternative browser or good for older hardware but given theyve restarted development Im hoping there will be more to come.

If they'd just offer a superoir adblocker as an alternative, or move to a more fine-grained solution as the default, I'd actually be ok with using it.
