@jon@vivaldi.net I like the hypocrisy of open source community as everybody uses Firefox and the overall usage is under 3 %
@jon@vivaldi.net as Linux based devs are just ~3 % of all users, it has no meaning for the overall picture 😂
@jon@vivaldi.net
Vivaldi is my choice.
Here's why: It's the only browser which doesn't force users into AI or is fully relying on ads. It's the only browser I can donate to per month or year (I won't count Mozilla/Firefox in cause Firefox is a product of the commercial part of Mozilla).
Finally: Vivaldi is the only browser company I know of which is owned by the employees.
I'd prefer to have a fully open source browser but I do understand the reason why Vivaldi isn't.
@jon@vivaldi.net Vivaldi. Chromium-based. No AI bullshit. No spyware.
@jon@vivaldi.net @kazuhito@vivaldi.net Waterfox and Qutebrowser!
@jon@vivaldi.net i’m knee deep in firefox for now, but will be trying vivaldi when i get my health back together a bit
@jon@vivaldi.net 日本語で書きます。翻訳サイトなど使ってください。
Firefoxは唯一日本語IMEの動作を正しく行ってくれます。なので文節などの変換が見やすく、安心できます。拡張が多くても不安定になりにくいです。Quantumは正しい判断だったと思います。
Chromium系（Elctronも）IMEの処理がおざなりで点線出しとけはいいだろうとしかとれない動作画面です。たまに文節区切りを見失いますし変なところになることがあります。
あとは垂直タブがあるかどうかで、その垂直タブもタブ同士の親子関係が表せられないと意味がないです。
ということでFirefox+Tree Style Tabが使いやすく、その次にVivaldiが来ます。
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox Focus on iOS. Refuses everything by default. Has a “delete session” button.
@jon@vivaldi.net I run with @Waterfox@mastodon.social and @brave@mastodon.social on my daily machines, but have access to #Opera, #Edge, #Firefox and #Chrome for UI testing.
@jon@vivaldi.net de puis que je utilise le navigateur Vivaldi j'ai une paix royale en plus des nombreuse fonctionnalité proposé sur ce navigateur Vivaldi je le trouve formidable merci beaucoup monsieur .
@jon@vivaldi.net After testing all the browsers my favourite is Vivaldi due to their focus on privacy and no crypto crap. I also like to browse their forums which has been helpful to me at times.
@jon@vivaldi.net It is my default browsing. Completely customizable, I adjust it to my way and it has many options and pluses such as blog, note taking, RSS reader, translator and much more.
@jon@vivaldi.net I have no favourite browser anymore since Opera 12. I don't want to support the Chromium dominance but Firefox still feels clunky. I have some sympathy for the Zen browser project. And then there's Vivaldi, with a lot of stuff I appreciated when I was still using Opera. But … Chromium, you know 🤷.
@fluchtkapsel
Indeed, we are using Chromium, but there really is not a lot of choice. I hope you will make the switch. If you liked Opera 12, you will love Vivaldi.
@jon@vivaldi.net I already use Vivaldi since a botched Chromium browser update about a year ago. It's just a little bit sad that there's neither a lot of choice nor something like Chromium project but on a Gecko basis.
@fluchtkapsel@nerdculture.de
I wish I could have used Presto, but sadly that is not an option. The Presto code was much better in many ways that both Gecko and Blink. It was all in one. Very little 3rd party code. It compiled in a couple of minutes on a slow computer.
At this time the Chromium codebase is the best available.
Clearly there is a lot more to a browser than just the core and we modify the core as needed as well, so I hope you see we are providing something special here.
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox, because it has good privacy options, and their development tools are very useful
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox since early times. Now evaluating Vivaldi on Linux and iPad(I know same browser engine as Safari). Just curious
@jon@vivaldi.net #DuckDuckGo is my favorite browser.
@jon@vivaldi.net
On macOS it doesn’t feel native like f.e. Orion does. Also often the scrolling feels weird: content not moving as fast as your finger.
@jon@vivaldi.net I started to really like ARC until recently when I heard they are focusing on a new project. Then I would say Firefox and Safari
@jon@vivaldi.net I use chrome because I have a chromebook right now, but when I'm running Linux its librewolf
@jon@vivaldi.net I feel no emotional attachment to my browser, but I use firefox.
@jon@vivaldi.net
Safari on iOS (with extensions);
LibreWolf on Windows.
Nothing else. 🛡️
@jon@vivaldi.net Edge because it's the only one on the market that has an option to:
I like to keep my downloads folder clean, sorry 😢
@jon@vivaldi.net logiciel libre, respect de la vie privée, non inféodé aux GAFAM
@jon@vivaldi.net Chrome for better Android integration and web unfortunately is made thinking chrome, some sites not open correctly in Firefox so ... A maintain Firefox for web development only, every other task Chrome
@jon@vivaldi.net Brave, as you get a Chromium experience without Google nasties and a built in ad/tracker blocker
Sometimes i take Vimb for lighter browsing, but for the most time i stay attached to Firefox for the whole browsing experience and sync my tablet, laptop & smartphone with it.
@jon@vivaldi.net
General usage: LibreWolf
Dev: Polypane by @Kilian@mastodon.social
@jon@vivaldi.net I don't have a favorite browser at the moment. The one I currently use is brave, but there are several things about it that I don't like.
I've yet to find a browser that doesn't break my workflow in a critical way that also isn't brave.
I have several manifest v2 extensions that I'm not going to be giving up.
So until a browser has a tab discard mechanism that can be configured to not auto un-discard a tab on focus, and has a way to force immediate discarding, brave is where I stay.
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox because not chromium based. Vivaldi out of all chromium based
Firefox because only it supports (via an extension) having different sessions in different tabs, so I can log into 3 different accounts at the same website at the same time and use the same browser window for all of them. I need this and won't move to a different browser.
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox for now, because of inertia, but the alternatives are definitely being considered.
@jon@vivaldi.net Vivaldi & Firefox for philosophical reasons ;-)
@jon@vivaldi.net ehh probably firefox cus thanks to its existence i have ff forks lol, i use librewolf and now trying out #zenbrowser. zen's pretty damn sweet!
@jon@vivaldi.net It changes from time to time, but I do keep coming back to Firefox. It fits like a glove in Linux, has good dev tools and is configurable enough
@jon@vivaldi.net Librewolf: not Chromium, but also minus whatever bullshit Mozilla is injecting into Firefox this week.
@jon@vivaldi.net
I don't have one anymore. They all seem to either embraced tge AI BS, will be ruined be Google's F-ing manifest v3, ir they're made by yucky folk.
As soon as anyone outs out a browser that just shows websites and allows for best possible privacy without dicking around, I'll use that.
@jon@vivaldi.net Vivaldi and Zen browsers. Cuz I like customizability. Zen feels faster though. Vivaldi and Fennec on Android.
@jon@vivaldi.net no option for brave ? 🤔 otherwise i prefer firefox.
@jon@vivaldi.net
Mullvad
@jon@vivaldi.net Vivaldi on android is the only one that does tabs right IMO with the tab bar.
Firefox is nice because it's one of the only ones not using chromium or WebKit and with, finally, vertical tabs I am pretty happy using it on desktop again.
And Vivaldi and Zen Browser because of the amazing split screen feature.
But I prefer Zens sidebar tabs and the fact its also based on Gecko.
So for me it's Zen and Firefox on Desktop and Vivaldi on Android.
Which makes me unable to use sync :/
@jon@vivaldi.net
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net is my favorite because it gets so much right, right out of the box and is made by good people.
