I want to like Vivaldi, but how do these things pass QA?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Is this still applicable as there are source archives here : https://vivaldi.com/source/ I don't use Vivaldi, and have no interest in the Mastodon for now, but they were smart enough to change their use agent in order to have further compatibility, that actually triggered a market share loss on paper. https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-2-10-no-strings-attached-2/ Would be interested to hear if anyone uses Vivaldi and h…
The source is incomplete, you cannot build the browser from it, it's just there for licence compliance. Anyhow, it's just chrome with extra stuff you can disable (email client? rss reader?) and extra stuff I cannot imagine living without (side panels). https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/panels/web-panels/ I do not understand why no other browser has the ability to keep a predefined list of pages always open to the side…
It seems like this would almost perfectly act as a "predefined list of pages always open to the side, especially for real-time communication" or did I miss something? It won't be next to the page, but always visible at the top-left and kept between restarts.
I'm sure everyone here knows, but just posting to make sure no one misses out. Please don't use Vivaldi. It is a closed source browser [1], and as such we have no way of validating they have not put backdoors, spyware, telemetrics to send private details such as your bank details, website logins, Google account, etc. Stick with open source browsers, who's code is verifiable, especially for something as important as a…
In that case, what is the alternative? Chromium is so nice to use it's hard to get away.
At least for testing, I use Firefox as my daily driver.

It's sort of funny how we've come full circle. First there was RSS. People didn't like having an RSS program, so a reader was bundled with the browser. Then social media took over from personal blogs & feeds. With declining use, browsers removed RSS readers. Then federated social media grew. Now browsers are re-bundling clients in the browser. Everything old is new again...

Vivaldi also has an RSS client. So does Opera.

Most of the world is closed source and if the only reason to not use Vivaldi is because it is not open source well that isn't a very compelling reason at all. Most of the planet is using some form of closed source web browser the top 3 being Chrome, Safari, or Edge.
