    @jon@vivaldi.net After dropping Opera, I now mostly use Waterfox. Vivaldi is also on my desktop and laptop. But so is Brave, Firefox and DuckDuckGO. Edge is also on there, but only because MS won’t allow me to remove it :(

    @jon@vivaldi.net I’ve been using Vivaldi lately, but I also like Firefox and Librewolf. However the internet today feels like that of 2000, so many websites only work with todays IE (Chrome), so yeah, the options are either Chromium or Gecko; and the latter doesn’t work for all websites.

    It’s a very sad state of affairs.

    @jon@vivaldi.net I started to really like ARC until recently when I heard they are focusing on a new project. Then I would say Firefox and Safari

    Just wish Google was not used in vivaldi , so when I don’t want their influence I use ddg . if there is a way to keep Google completely out of Vivaldi. I’d like to know how.
    Thanks MTT

    @jon@vivaldi.net Brave, as you get a Chromium experience without Google nasties and a built in ad/tracker blocker

    @jon@vivaldi.net Firefox is my favorite when I can use it, but at least on my new Mac, I found Firefox was misbehaving for inexplicable reasons. Shrug, I don’t mind Safari that much, and for when AdGuard for Safari isn’t working, I also have AdGuard Home running on my home network.

    @jon@vivaldi.net Firefox, because its the only real alternative to chrome and its clones, firefox its still the most customizable browser, vivaldi its the second, but the biggest con of vivaldi feels that its the slower among chrome clones

    @jon@vivaldi.net Firefox for the gecko engine vs the overwhelming power (and use) of Chrome’s Blink.

    I’m pretty sure this just reflects “people who know what a browser is”, or least “people who know enough about browsers to have an opinion”.

    @jon@vivaldi.net Pale Moon. It’s single-process, so if something goes wrong, I can kill the browser simply. It supports the plugins and extensions I need, want, and use on a daily basis. It doesn’t support DRM, RTC, or the concepts pushed on us by DoubleClick. I’m very happy with the browser.

    @jon
    Many, many comments here. :tony_laughing:

    So a lot of interest in this question.
    No wonder really, here on ‘Mastodon’.

    Veery good. :tony_wee:

    Maybe someone else is interested in digging through here. ;-) ;-)

    I’m sure several people will take a closer look at the ‘Vivaldiserve’ afterwards.
