What is wrong with the browser Surf?

Question

So I downloaded Surf from the Ubuntu repository and compiled it from source. But every time I launch it I only get a blank white screen. Any suggestions would be helpful. Maybe I'm missing some dependencies or something like that?

Run it from a terminal, and look for any error messages. Why did you need to compile it from source, rather than apt-get install it? — Jos, Jul 08 '14 at 02:50
@Jos, because it suckless, I want to be able to patch and change the source code :) (However, I don't know if it's possible when installed via package manager) — LRDPRDX, Nov 14 '21 at 12:03

It's minimalistic.

You need to press CTRL+G (by default) to open the URL prompt, then type it in and press Enter. Alternatively, you can press CTRL+P to get the URL from your clipboard.
