    Is it easy to get a reproducible build? Has anyone tried?

    That is visible source. Without a license, it's not "open source". Nor is the source provided there complete. The last time they were asked, they said only the C++ code is open and available to the public.

      It's the LGPL parts of Chromium that they needed to modify to run their engine. So it's LGPL'd, but only the specific parts that they need to release.

        Right. They're waving that around like they're saying the stuff is open source, and it's very much not open source. Building a bunch of stuff on top of an open source project and then claiming your source is open because some base amount of the source forced them under its license to be open is a total cop-out. No, Vivaldi is not open source, and no they do not have plans to ever open source Vivaldi.
