Yeah I wish Vivaldi wasn't Chromium-based, because I love all the bells and whistles of Vivaldi so much. But like, at the end of the day it's still partly contributing to the Chromium dominance of the web, so I still have to default to Firefox as my primary.

Same sentiment here. Coming from Opera (in the days it had its own engine) and having been using Vivaldi as my daily since its first public preview, native mouse gestures is the thing I miss the most from Firefox.

I know that the folks at Vivaldi are pretty strongly against the manifest v3 thing, but seems like at one point they'll have to fold.

I miss old Opera. I want it back

100% Vivaldi is my favorite browser, I only use it as backup though because I'm not using Chromium if I can help it

Exactly my sentiment

Sentiment shared.

I went from Firefox, to Chrome (came as default, didn’t swap because browser was fine), to Vivaldi which was really neat when I started learning Chrome was going to become suck, then back to good old Firefox when I learned that Vivaldi is Chromium.
