further contribution to the google chrome hegemony
My job basically requires that I use Chrome (I work for a SaaS company whose product’s advance features only work on Chromium). Vivaldi has, at least so far, performed the best, offered the most customization that suited my needs, and isn’t Chrome/Edge. I liked Arc as well, but it has the same issues that Vivaldi has.
I don’t like Brave due to its push of AI/crypto, and Opera doesn’t really work with some of our internal apps.
As a decades long Firefox user it sucks, but I don’t have much of a choice when it comes to work. It’s tough finding alternatives built on Chromium that accomplish everything I need without there being some major caveat.
Ok. Anything else?
sure. i also dislike that it's a closed source product created by a private company that could rug pull all the users to turn a quick buck at any time. they haven't in the last 10 years, and come from a legacy of a company that was very respectful of their customers (opera) but you could also argue the legacy of opera being bought by a spyware company was the last rugpull and that vivaldi will inevitably do the same. but that's a more abstract complaint
