    Is there any good reason to use Vivaldi? Nice to see more scripts from you. I have been thinking about making some scripts to automate the deployment of Bubblejail profiles for different apps. I don’t run nearly anything without sandboxing, and Bubblejail does not interfer with the Chromium sandbox.

      I dont use Vivaldi haha, but their installation is so weird that I wanted to fix that.

      I use Firefox and since bubblejail has support for firefoxes name on Fedora (bubblejail is strange) I tried it and got memory issues or something, pretty crazy.

      I think vivaldi is just as fine as regular Chromium, probably slower patches. A debloated Brave will be better for privacy.

      I don’t use it, but from what I understand it’s from the developers of Opera before it became a Chinese spyware browser. Back when it was good. It’s great if you’re looking for customization and options.

      As a disclaimer, the reason I don’t use it is because I need a Chromium browser for work and Vivaldi (a Chromium based browser) gave me an error that said I need to use Chrome or Edge.

          I know it is. That’s exactly why I mentioned that happening. Sorry if that was unclear.

          ETA: I just read my previous comment again. I meant to say Vivaldi, not Opera.

            That makes more sense :)

            I guess they use a weird way to detect browser? I wonder if changing user agent string would work? There’s a ”user agent brand masking“ setting in Vivaldi.

        This. It’s incredibly customizable, I’d daily drive it of it didn’t mean contributing to the Chromium monopoly
