Vivaldi is roughly 1000 times slower. You need a pretty good computer to run that UI. It also lacks extremely basic features Opera had; like working LRU tab switching. I liked the idea, but it's impossible to recommend.
- AlienRobot 2y agoIs that true? I remember having to change a setting to switch the behavior of tab switching because it was LRU by default and I prefer it in visible order.
- rplnt 2y agoIt used to work and broke maybe 2 years ago. This tells me that no one is actually using the browser and that no one is really working on it either. It receives chromium updates and then some money-making features here and there.
- dicknuckle 2y agohave you tried Otter Browser?
- rplnt 2y agoIt's been a while, 8-10 years ago maybe? But quick look now tells me it's still one person effort. That's both awesome and unfortunate. I wish it got more traction back then to attract more active user/dev base.
