qutebrowser doesn't really use webkit anymore. It was an alternative browser engine, but even the developers say that it isn't recommended.

It now uses the QtWebEngine, which is chromium based:

QtWebKit is not recommended but it is still available if you want it: https://qutebrowser.org/doc/help/settings.html#backend. There is a ticket to remove it completely which is now targeted for V4 (https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/4039) but, in reality, you could still use it.
