I got @vivaldi.com with my new car. Now I'm going to install it on my PC and mobile devices, too.

Vivaldi >>>>> Chrome Alphabet just loves throwing AI features down at 5 billion throats they're just never gonna stop from here on

idk can you fix the curved corners on maximised windows before 2026 is over 🥺

which corners? You can edit the roundness of corners on Settings > Themes, then select your current theme > Editor > Settings and you should see a slider that says "corner rounding"

What makes Vivaldi better than or different from Brave, Waterfox and Opera? I currently use Brave (and Chrome and Edge).

AI: Vivaldi's edge is customization: vertical/stacked tabs, tab tiling, built-in mail, calendar and RSS, notes, and deep UI and shortcut tweaks. Brave focuses on ad/tracker blocking and crypto; Opera on a sidebar, VPN and AI; Waterfox on Firefox-based privacy. Vivaldi is Chromium-based, like Brave.

Cool! I'll make the switch from Brave to Vivaldi tomorrow!

Is it Chromium? That's a deal breaker.

Guys, you are jus' Chromium reskin. I ain't buying it.

Chromium is an open-source engine that's highly compatible with web standards. Many in our team built the Presto engine back when they worked at Opera, we know what it takes to build and maintain a browser engine, and trust me: it's not cheap. Using Chromium allows us to perform (1/3)

while being able to remove all the upstream stuff we don't like. It's not ideal, but neither is using Gecko, whose development is mostly financed by Google thanks to search deals. We don't make money from Google, and we're happy with that decision. (2/3)

«Chromium is an open-source engine that's highly compatible with web standards.» It's true. And it's due to Google's monopoly (a.k.a. web standards). Long story short: devs just make everything for Google Chrome and it just happens to work on #Vivaldi cuz it's the same engine.

Ok ok the planets aligned, I’m gonna check it out today
