Topic: What's a good, free web browser to view e621 on iPad?

Posted under General

My computer bit the big one, so I'm stuck on a hand-me-down iPad. What's a good web browser to view e621, and similar sites, on? Preferably one that's free.

Thanks in advance.

If it's an old one check out Opera mobile, if it's a newer one have a gander at Firefox and chrome.

What's wrong with Safari? - I've been on my iPad viewing e621.net for the last past two weeks, and never found any problems.
(Except for the tab reloading the page when you go onto another one for a certain time.)

Nothing is ever free when using an Apple product; they'll find a way to charge you for running the code something

That's like old people asking that what's wrong with IE. I guess fundemendally there's nothing wrong, it's just that it's not the best solution.

Though tbh I have no idea with apple products, apple has so tight grip of iOS that I'm amazed there even is possibility to use other browsers. I do remember that there was some serious restrictions at least few years ago, including not being able to use any other rendering engine other than what safari uses and not being able to select other browsers as default.

Even Symbian phones were far better than iOS with that.

Apple has become less strict now. And the "Allowing you to change default search engines" changed back when iOS 5 was available.

I use Android so I'm not 100% sure if it is on the apple app store, but dolphin is the best for Android! (Although you can't get flash on iPad or iPhone anyway).
No offence, but personally I think apple are way overrated and kinda crap.
