    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

      Dude. The day any other browser comes close to the functionality of Vivaldi, I’ll switch. But from my experience with Firefox and Brave, that’s far in the future.

          Mouse gestures. For me, they are a must, I can’t browse without them.

          I was really hoping for an answer. But it looks like Vivaldi is the best browser, because it has mouse gestures like no other.
