    I wish Vivaldi wasn’t Chromium-based, because I think it’s the slickest browser out there.

    But it’s chromium, so it’s time to move on to Firefox regardless.

    Ladybird development can’t happen fast enough.

      By that argument the time was a long time ago then. Vivaldi still works with uBlock so nothing has changed on their end. I think it’s still reasonable to use Vivaldi until they are forced to Manifest 3. Despite being Chromium based they’ve always been privacy focused and vocally pro ad blocking. As far as the cult of Firefox, they’ve been showing their true colors lately. They are no saints and their biggest funder is Google. Never forget to follow the money. I’m not personally convinced that a switch on a purely ideological level is indicated.
