My cat made the switch to Vivaldi
And he's liking it so far.
After Chrome's 4GB AI privacy scandal, I suggested he try a different web browser. He made the big switch from Internet Explorer to Chrome back in the day and didn't realize there were more than five browsers to choose from nowadays. I use Zen and Vivaldi, his friends at the windowsill use Brave, and the neighbor's cat uses Edge. There were plenty of options, but the final decision came down to Brave vs. Vivaldi. The latter won out because its features suited him better (integrated calendar and mail over a crypto wallet and video chat).
Right now, he's busy customizing it. Mostly by walking across the keyboard and knocking the mouse off the desk. Would you be interested in a report on his final experience?
As a privacy nerd, I'd love for Vivaldi to be open-source and a Firefox fork, but as a productivity enthusiast, I also know its limits.
Anyway, thank you for this fantastic tool! The hiding UI is a really great improvement (he especially appreciates anything that hides, being a cat).
Edit: You know what I couldn't find? A lignt introductory video to Vivaldi listing all its features so he knows where he's gettin into.
