GNU Lynx is the only acceptable browser

• sent from Firefox on Android

Vivaldi’s pretty good feature-wise. It’s got tab workspaces and stacking, detailed themes, mouse gestures, menu customisations, tab tiling, it’s basically where a lot of the Firefox power-users have gone. It’s a solid browser. That being said, a lot of the Firefox fanboyism is prevalent here so you’re going to piss a few people off if you suggest anything that’s based on Chromium.

That being said, I’ve also gotta shill Pulse. I don’t like the way Mozilla is running Firefox so I’m steering away from that, luckily Pulse is a Firefox fork. Native vertical tabs that don’t need an extension that Mozilla can break at any time, as well as a minimalist UI makes it a very clean looking browser to use, and with Simple Tab Groups, the only extension I’ve installed for extra functionality, I’ve basically got my Vivaldi replacement. If Mozilla breaks STG I’m moving my ass back to Vivaldi. edit test

Just use whatever you see fit - I personally don’t care too much about open-source vs. proprietary, I use Steam for crying out loud.

That being said, I’ve also gotta shill Pulse. I don’t like the way Mozilla is running Firefox so I’m steering away from that, luckily Pulse is forked from Firefox. I’m concerned about Mozilla treating userChrome.css as a legacy feature, so having native vertical tabs is great, and a generally minimalist UI makes it a very clean looking browser to use. With Simple Tab Groups, the only extension I’ve installed for extra functionality with the browser itself, I’ve basically got my Vivaldi replacement, though If Mozilla breaks STG I’m moving my ass back to Vivaldi.

I’ve been using it for a while because I like the forward and back arrows at the bottom and Firefox on Android was doing some weird stuff (freezing up and whatnot) at one point.

Use whatever you want?

It’s all Chromium, the same browser.

It’s top on my list of Chromium browsers

It’s chromium but has a special place in my heart because it’s made by the og Opera people, when Opera used its own engine. I still use Firefox but if I ever switched it would probably be to Vivaldi.

I personally love Vivaldi. It’s really been the only browser for me that’s met everything I wanted. Customizable, looks good. And has a whole synchronization suite as well.

I honestly just don’t want to use Firefox at this point because I’m sick of Mozilla and their bad financial records (in 2021, the CEO gave themselves a 5 million bonus. And a good majority of their money still comes from Google), and the fact that they’ve kind of shifted their priorities away from Firefox in favor of more political activism activities. Which is annoying because Firefox is still the only other browser that has everything I need.

Yeah I do wish Vivaldi was fully open source but they’ve already mentioned that a lot of their stuff is besides their UI (which they’re keeping private for branding reasons). I think Its kind of ridiculous, but it’s not that big of a deal I guess since right now Vivaldi is just Chromium with an extra coat of paint.

Use whatever you want. But do consider if you want to contribute to Google’s monopoly, and if you want to use an open-source browser.

• Vivaldi Browser is not open source. Better use Brave than that…
• If you still really hate Firefox, Ungoogled Chromium which is basically Chrome with all the Google stuff removed.
• All of the above do still contribute to Google’s monopoly, so I would really encourage Firefox or a fork.
• Barring that, you could also get away with a WebKit browser (like GNOME web, Nyxt). Although WebKit is developed by Apple, it’s still open source and doesn’t look particularly bad. If you’re on a Mac, Safari is an option, but it’s closed source.

I used it for a while and there I had to quit. It’s just too buggy and instead of fixing the bugs in the updates they change your speed dial to include ads. It’s fucking annoying and shows the devs are out of touch. The most egregious thing is when it just straight up deleted all my workspaces.

Firefox is fine. Chromium will be fine as well. If in doubt, pihole.

I daily drive Vivaldi.

The Android version is good too.

Vivaldi is now my main browser. Sync works great. The sidebar is awesome.

Brave is a good option. Vivaldi is closed source, so if your all about FOSS, then Vivaldi is not an option.
