Mise Brovser v0.12.0

Mise Browser v0.12.0

Highlights

• Modal Navigation Engine: Vim-inspired modal navigation introducing NORMAL, INSERT, and
  PASSTHROUGH modes with an active status and mode bar displaying link destinations and TLS state.
• Native Dark Reader Engine: Zero-dependency, low-latency theme engine with per-site domain
  exclusions and dedicated toggle shortcuts.
• Privacy & Adblocking Restoration:
  • Repaired Ghostery adblocker multi-session attachment so ad and tracker blocking runs
    consistently across all partition workspaces.
  • Eliminated template string regex errors in webview preload to ensure Canvas, WebGL, Audio,
    and Hardware farbling shields apply reliably on untrusted domains.
  • Implemented User-Agent reduction and synchronised client hints (Chrome/<major>.0.0.0) to
    avoid leaking unique OS build signatures.
• Google Sign-in Compatibility: Added automatic request routing to WebLiteSignIn, resolving
  persistent botguard challenge blocks (rrk=46).
• Release Automation & Packaging: Integrated electron-builder multi-platform CI pipelines
  with an in-app zero-privilege GitHub release checker.

v0.10.1: Optimised main process baseline, lazy session loading, and GPU cache

2026-09

Performance(memory):
Optimise main process baseline, lazy session loading, and GPU cache

• Lazy-load workspace container partitions on demand instead of
  eagerly creating all sessions at start-up.
• Fix memory watcher residentSet threshold bug to correctly trigger
  tab hibernation at 200 MB rather than 200 GB.
• Add V8 heap compaction hook and idle GC sweep to flush initial
  adblocker deserialisation buffers.
• Reduce force-gpu-mem-available-mb from 2048 to 384 MB to cap
  compositor tile caching and drop GPU process RAM by over 200 MB.
• Hook compactMemory IPC into hibernateInactiveTabs to reclaim
  memory immediately when tabs are detached.

Documentation

1. Does Mise Collect Any Data?

No. Mise Browser collects zero data.
• No Telemetry or Analytics: There are no tracking SDKs, telemetry beacons, or background pings
in the application.
• No Remote Error Reporting: The browser does not transmit crash traces, memory dumps, or error
logs over the network.
• 100% Local Storage: All browsing history, workspace sessions, bookmarks, quickmarks, notes, and
preferences are stored strictly on your local machine under ~/.config/mise-browser/.
• Zero Interception: Search queries and URL lookups route directly to your chosen search engine
without proxying or logging.

2. Safeguards for Future Error & Debugging Telemetry

To ensure any future error reporting remains strictly privacy-preserving, the newly established
policy sets out mandatory architectural rules:

1. Strictly Opt-In: Telemetry and crash reporting will always remain disabled by default. It will
   never be activated without explicit user agreement.
2. Zero PII or URLs: Crash logs will only contain application-level runtime error codes and stack
   traces. They will never include visited URLs, page titles, form inputs, session cookies, or
   hardware identifiers.
3. Local Inspection First: Error dumps will be stored in a local log file first so you can
   inspect the exact payload before choosing to submit it.
4. Explicit Preference Toggle: A dedicated setting in Preferences (F1 or Ctrl + H) will allow
   toggling diagnostics on or off at any time.
