I daily drive Firefox, but more and more websites are starting to break without Chromium, so I still have to occasionally switch to get something working. I was using Ungoogled Chromium until I realized that there was no easy way to update it when that pixel-stealing exploit came out a while back.

To be clear, I’m not talking about stock “no settings changed” Vivaldi. With that requirement, even Firefox could be called invasive! What I want to know is if Vivaldi is relatively safe to use with all the telemetry and stuff disabled in the settings and using any necessary extensions.

Thanks!

    I really like it and think that it has cool features that really help with productivity

    I wish that it was actually open source (they don’t include the full code, most of the source is just chromium stuff and it’s published in tar archives and not git repos)

    On my PC, I use Vivaldi most of the time, Firefox when I want extra privacy, and ungoogled-chromium almost never
