FlameDarkness Browser 3.0

Bug Fixes:

• YouTube videos: partial improvements. YouTube videos can be viewed up to 40 seconds circa in version 3.0 (compared to the 30 seconds circa in version 2.0).
• User interface buttons and url bar not expanding when maximizing the window: resolved through a new interface.

Improvements:

• New option for enabling or disabling GPU acceleration.
• New option for allowing or blocking third-party cookies.
• Functionality for entering and leaving fullscreen.
• Renderer crashes now report the crash on the same page.
• Speedometer 3.1 benchmark reported a score of 2.65, plus or minus 0.10 in FlameDarkness 3.0. In FlameDarkness 2.0 the benchmark score used to be 2.62, plus or minus 0.10.

Known issues:

• YouTube videos stop working after 40 seconds circa, the error message is that an error has occured and to try again later. The time of usability has increased after adding GPU acceleration, according to my test.
• Videos on Reddit do not start. The good side of this issue is that ads on Reddit don't start either.
• RAM spikes: on idle, I noticed that having the Google website open consumes around 400 megabytes of RAM, while launching a YouTube video consumes around 1300 megabytes of RAM. I don't know exactly where the issue is, but AIs have suggested that encrypted formats could be one of the causes.

Release availability:

• Released on GitHub on 11 November 2026.
