## Summary

Collabora and the Raspberry Pi Foundation released an optimized web browser for the Raspberry Pi based on GNOME Web (Epiphany) using WebKit 1. Major improvements over the first beta include smoother video playback — from 0.5fps at 640×360 to 25fps at 1280×720 — and better overall responsiveness. The browser can be installed on Raspbian via apt-get by installing the epiphany-browser package. Known issues include a graphics bug with 24-bit/32-bit mode and broken Vimeo playback due to a Vimeo-side change.
