Neither, it uses Apple Webkit.

In the settings under the "Browsing" tab you uncheck "Enable scripts" to disable Javascript.

Midori does not support Web Extensions. It does have it's own build-in adblocker.

Apple isn't doing this by choice, they do it because Webkit like Google's Blink engine is a fork from KHTML. The LGPL licenses forces them to make the source code available.

Is It possible to delete the cookies there at least?

They take space on disk for some reason

You can manually delete cookies by selecting "Clear private data" in the drop down menu. It has no automatic remove cookies on close option.

Cookies are very tiny text files. They contain data which can be used to automatically log you in, track preferences such as a you selecting the dark theme for a site or to track you.

By default Midori blocks cookies from third party domains and only allows those from sites you visit.

And before you get confused, there are two browsers both called Midori.

This is the Midori you want: https://github.com/midori-browser/core

Not that other Electron garbage.
