At Vivaldi we continue to make choices that are different from our competitors.

@jon I’m loving Vivaldi as a recent convert but the last piece of my workflow puzzle is stack syncing between mobile and desktop.

@lexinova oof on the hateful cdn, plus as others have noted, their additions to chromium are closed...

@jon This is my main browser now and I'm in China.

@jon I have been trying it and like it but am still trying to figure out how the starting menus system works

@jon No AI is based.

@jon Vivaldi is my daily drive. You share my values about what the internet should be. And you give Vivaldi users a place on the Fediverse. Most of all, it's a great browser. Thanks for what you do.

@seanpm2001 @jon jup, my feelings as well. by all accounts, the people making vivaldi seem to be pretty good sorts.

but chromium considered malware.

@jon While I prefer to use Firefox as my primary browser (partly at a way to show that non-Chromium browsers are still important), but Vivaldi is my go-to Chromium-based browser.

[deborahh@cosocial.ca]

@jon @zazzoo thank you.

[msdropbear@friendica.opensocial.space]

@jon

based on the wishes of our users.

...unless, ofc, one of those wishes is tree style tabs, ie, an infinitely nestable tab hierarchy, not merely the simple one-dimensional options as now of many years' standing. in this case, it's all just 🦗🦗🦗

@jon I've just downloaded, I don't demand much from my browser bar no-AI and good ad blocking. Good so far

@jon They are a wrapper around google's browser engine (Chromium) and refuse to open source their code... How much could they possibly respect your privacy?

[shadowmakersdr@mastodon.nl]

@jon I really like Vivaldi, especially the sessions functionality.
There's only one issue: after the first start up of the day, every subsequent time I start Vivaldi it takes something like 30 seconds before I can use it. It becomes totally unresponsive during that time. I've been in contact with support, but so far there has not been a solution. Which is a shame because apart from that it runs great. This is on Windows btw.

@jon @inthehands This browser is very nice, but I would love for it to do one thing, be a bit more privet. Would be super cool if you would scramble the fingerprint on it, to provide another layer of security, without the need for plugins.

[h4890@alive.bar]

@jon Hello Vivaldi, can you drop the chrome engine and use the Ladybird (https://ladybird.org/) one? I think that would be great to reduce the power and influence of google over the internet!

[h4890@alive.bar]

@Phosphoros44 @jon It's based on google technology underneath, so while your intentions are pure, you are helping to cement the power and influence of google.

[h4890@alive.bar]

@onirakkiss @jon Excellent question, and one that should be answered.

[h4890@alive.bar]

@gekitsu @seanpm2001 @jon Yes, this is the truth! they should join the Ladybird project. https://ladybird.org/ .

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

@jon Last time I tried Vivaldi, I recall facing some #accessibility issues. Have you chosen to prioritize that aspect of user requested improvement, or should I look elsewhere?

[swggrkllr3rd@mastodon.world]

@jon What about a european OS ??
