It’s better this way. Two tyre providers would lead to one of them developing the better product. Teams on the other tyre would be at a disadvantage and there is nothing they would be able to do about it. See Bridgestone/Michelin years. Wasn’t good for the sport.

The point is his allegiance should be disclosed front and center on the main page. Might as well declare it as Brave browser advertisement. You can’t be impartial, if you work for the company.

 

I know it’s not important, but using a drawing of Vivaldi straight up from his Wikipedia page is kinda lazy. A nature landscape from Iceland would be more appropriate perhaps. E.g. anything from ⇒ https://unsplash.com/s/photos/iceland

The person doing these tests works for Brave and doesn’t disclose this on the main page. He keeps spamming social media with his results and therefore this comes up time and time again. The main problem is that he refuses to test browsers which have been configured, he always tests them ootb. For Vivaldi this means ad and tracking protection is disabled, even though the choice of setting this up is presented to the user in the very first setup steps (one‐click operation), without the need to visit settings …

I wouldn’t take the results serious. If you want a sliver/the chance of privacy, you have to use Tor browser anyway.

Great initiative, thank you!
