Finally people are starting to see the light and seeing that relying on Big Tech is a bad idea. In this case this is about Oslo, but governments all across the world are seeing the same thing. Being reliant on Big Tech is a bad idea and you should move on to smaller companies with better values.
Thus, we at Vivaldi are getting plenty of requests at this time. It is not a fast process, but there is an understanding that it is time and it is urgent!
You should do the same. Your company should do the same. Take the steps you can take. Ready to change OS? Browser? Search engine? Mail provider?
My recommendation is to at least switch to Vivaldi!

If social media had existed in 1860, people would have said almost literally the exact same thing, except "big tech" would be replaced by "railroads" who were the evil tech edgelords of the day

@jon I never really used Opera, but I switched to Vivaldi as my daily driver several months ago to solve a specific problem. Firefox was my daily driver before then, but Mozilla made some questionable decisions that irked me, and I needed a way to keep multiple Google accounts logged in but separate. Vivaldi fixed my problem (via Profiles).
You're doing good work, here. Keep at it.
(and if you get a chance, add support for the Gemini protocol!)

@jon more like big tech is shooting themself in the foot with pushing ai to where it is not wanted.

@jon But Vivaldi uses Chromium, you as a company directly depends on Big Tech and whatever they feel like doing. What happens if Google closes down Chromium? Will you fork and maintain it? What happens next month when Chrome drops supports for macOS 12? Will you do the same? Not used Vivaldi before so just asking (as a potential new user).
Btw, big fan/user of Opera in the mid/late 90s

(likte all-in-one løsningen med www, epost, ftp, var supert for en ung webutvikler på 90-tallet).
