Hilal Browser v0.2.0-alpha.3

This release focuses on making Hilal's privacy posture clearer during first-run setup.

What's new

  • Added a dedicated Privacy step to the welcome flow.
  • The welcome screen now tells users that uBlock Origin is installed by default.
  • Users can choose a privacy hardening level during setup: Balanced, Strict, or Maximum.
  • The selected level is saved to hilal.privacy.level and applied by Hilal's privacy preset system.
  • New welcome-screen fallback text for the privacy step is in English.

Privacy transparency

  • Balanced is described as LibreWolf-like hardening.
  • Strict clearly warns about lower compatibility and WebRTC being disabled.
  • Maximum clearly states that it is not Tor and does not hide the user's IP address.

Build

  • macOS Apple Silicon DMG built from commit b9990e9.
  • DMG SHA256: 0fd10e985734c35b08c0ea0fb7e316c82435be761e778c00a31b6bb1891adb15
