@jon@vivaldi.net i kind of hate them all, each for a different reason...
@jon@vivaldi.net Chrome: tab groups.
@cassolotl@eldritch.cafe
Have your tried tab stacks and workspaces in Vivaldi?
@jon@vivaldi.net Orion! We got a kagi subscription a while back and I enjoyed it so much I decided to try their browser. It blocks youtube ads on all my devices, so it's a keeper
@jon@vivaldi.net Vivaldi + Brave All features potential of Vivaldi (panels, second-level tabs, workspaces, page actions, page tiling, translator, reading list...) + privacy/cookies/certificates/ad-blocker... features of Brave
@jon@vivaldi.net Zen-Browser forked from Firefox. @zenbrowser@fosstodon.org
@jon@vivaldi.net Librewolf is just better than firefox.
Vivaldi has been my daily driver since 1.0, i can't live without tab tiling and vertical tabs in my work. Would love to have the ability to sort my open tabs by domain or an alpha sort.
Please continue to improve the Adblock functions. It doesn't compare to manifest v2 ublock origin yet.
Loving 7.0 so far!
@jon@vivaldi.net I was a long-time Opera aficionado, only dropped it when they switched to WebKit (and then Blink) and the last Presto-based version became obsolete (TLS-wise, mostly). Switched to Firefox, with which I'll stick as long as it maintains Gecko. Would love to jump to Vivaldi, but we need more independent rendering engines for the health of the web.
@jon@vivaldi.net Different Browsers for different situations
- Safari
- Edge
- Brave
@jon@vivaldi.net I use safari on Mac as it is the only browser that works with the Apple Passwords app. If Vivaldi worked with it I would use that instead
@jon Vivaldi is just like home.
The workspaces, the customizability, tab stacking...
it’s made with love
@claridelune@vivaldi.net , glad you like it!
@jon@vivaldi.net a good browser has good dev tools, and an absence of AI bullshit.
@jon@vivaldi.net
Brave:
1.- is FOSS
2.- By default it is configured for privacy, I don't have to do anything extra.
#foss #brave @bravebrowser@lemmy.ml #linux #vivaldi
@jon@vivaldi.net #vivaldibrowser is by far the best. It saves me so much time. I need to have many tabs open in several windows in several virtual desktops in several monitors. Workspaces, tabs stacking and tab search are lifesavers. The quick search has a built-in calculator that I use all the time. It's the most innovative and customizable browser there is. Sync is flawless. I use it in Mac, Windows and Android.
#Edge would be my 2nd choice. I like how fast it loads in my old Windows laptop, probably because it's pre-loaded. I like the way Bing presents the search results and the Copilot integration. I love the read-aloud feature. It recognizes the language automatically and it sounds very natural.
@jon@vivaldi.net @firefox@fedia.io and @brave@mastodon.social
@jon@vivaldi.net
Checked FF on Desktop but use Fennec on Android because it's not Chrome🤷
@jon@vivaldi.net I use Vivaldi for several years on both, desktop (Windows) and mobile (Android), and i can tell you all without fear, without no regrets, that it give me all what i need to surf internet on the better and secure way i ever prof with any other browser
@jon I'm a Vivaldi supporter since V1. Because of open privacy (MV3) and open finger printing support I use more & more FF and Zen in the last months ... ;-( But I love Vivaldi, great team support and the Vivaldi style
@jon@vivaldi.net Appropriately set up I use Firefox.🙏
@jon@vivaldi.net #Firefox, because not Chrome.
@jon@vivaldi.net It changes from time to time, but I do keep coming back to Firefox. It fits like a glove in Linux, has good dev tools and is configurable enough
@jon
Many, many comments here. :tony_laughing:
So a lot of interest in this question.
No wonder really, here on 'Mastodon'.
Veery good. :tony_wee:
Maybe someone else is interested in digging through here. ;-) ;-)
I'm sure several people will take a closer look at the 'Vivaldiserve' afterwards.

:tony_smiling: :tony_happy:
@jon@vivaldi.net I use Watefox, based on Firefox, has Mozilla login/sync and an Android client too
@jon@vivaldi.net about:config
@jon@vivaldi.net I don't have a favorite browser at the moment. The one I currently use is brave, but there are several things about it that I don't like.
I've yet to find a browser that doesn't break my workflow in a critical way that also isn't brave.
I have several manifest v2 extensions that I'm not going to be giving up.
So until a browser has a tab discard mechanism that can be configured to not auto un-discard a tab on focus, and has a way to force immediate discarding, brave is where I stay.
@jon@vivaldi.net Edge because it's the only one on the market that has an option to:
- Ask if you want to open or save the download
- If the user wants to open it without saving, it saves it in a temporary directory
- Automatically deletes that downloaded file when closing the browser
I like to keep my downloads folder clean, sorry 😢
@jon@vivaldi.net
I'm pretty sure this just reflects "people who know what a browser is", or least "people who know enough about browsers to have an opinion".
@jon@vivaldi.net LibreWolf for privacy &
Vivaldi for functionality
@jon@vivaldi.net Pale Moon. It's single-process, so if something goes wrong, I can kill the browser simply. It supports the plugins and extensions I need, want, and use on a daily basis. It doesn't support DRM, RTC, or the concepts pushed on us by DoubleClick. I'm very happy with the browser.
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox for the gecko engine vs the overwhelming power (and use) of Chrome's Blink.
@jon@vivaldi.net
Because 'Vivaldi' is simply the world's best browser for me.
Especially on 'Linux'.
And has been for a long time.
I think it's also worth taking a closer look at the 'Vivaldiserve' behind it. ;-)
Currently Firefox in first place, then Safari just ahead of Vivaldi here. :tony_unhappy:
I think many people here have simply not yet looked at Vivaldi for all platforms.
Based on 'Chromium', 100% open source.
:tony_happy: :tony_smiling: :tony_wee:
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox is my favorite when I can use it, but at least on my new Mac, I found Firefox was misbehaving for inexplicable reasons. Shrug, I don’t mind Safari that much, and for when AdGuard for Safari isn’t working, I also have AdGuard Home running on my home network.
@jon@vivaldi.net Brave, as you get a Chromium experience without Google nasties and a built in ad/tracker blocker
@jon@vivaldi.net I love Safari because it's not chrome & it's got sleek apple design & it means I don't have to use the loathsome firefox
@jon@vivaldi.net I use chrome because I have a chromebook right now, but when I'm running Linux its librewolf
@jon@vivaldi.net I started to really like ARC until recently when I heard they are focusing on a new project. Then I would say Firefox and Safari
@jon@vivaldi.net logiciel libre, respect de la vie privée, non inféodé aux GAFAM
@jon I like Firefox and Vivaldi.
FF is totally open source and often renders fonts better than Chromium-based browsers and the PDF reader is more robust. I'm currently working through an online training module and it's the only PDF program that lets me highlight sections of the provided documentation and will remember changes when I save the document.
Vivaldi has a ton of features and is pretty quick and responsive, especially on Android. Still having odd issues with the mail client and I'm really not sure what to make of or do with the new dashboard though.
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox for now, although for how much longer is unknown. Over the course of time, it's become slower and somewhat bloated from what I can tell.
I've been tweaking and twiddling another browser, when I have time, to see if a smooth transition can eventually take place.
