I got tired of Firefox bug regressions so I installed this thing

looks like it can use chrome extensions right out of the box

let’s see how long it takes me to notice the difference

it was kinda crashy and wonky (display issues, fonts maybe?), plus they have been making decisions that lead me to believe that they dgaf about user privacy. like that mr robot tie in extension for example

idk i want to like it but i wasnt thrilled and everyone else seemed to be having issues, so i stopped using it quickly. i was mainly interested cause they werent an advertising company, but then they started pulling their own shenanigans so i was out

satisfied with Vivaldi so far. it’s fast and being able to steal chrome plugins owns. I forget what opera features I used to use but I’m sure I’ll find them. hope I don’t run into any show stopper bugs

mouse gestures, op. really good mouse gestures. also a bunch of options for handling tabs.

Vivaldi isn't perfect but again every browser sucks so overall I'm happier with vivladi's warts than chrome or the new garbage version of Firefox

good to hear

for real though I've been wondering if it's worth switching to vivaldi since the backend is similar enough to chrome that the rendering shouldn't be any different and the frontend is really what matters

but the whole ordeal of switching browsers :effort:

i had an easier time switching from firefox to vivaldi than when i switched from opera to firefox. i used opera for 10 years. :rip:
