The android version has much faster alternatives. It's not worth it just for the synced bookmarks

>>53689654
because chromium exists

It doesn't respect my freedoms. I only have Chromium installed as a fallback browser since some websites have shit compatibility.

Because it's a botnet.

No tree style tabs/side tabs

I use Vivaldi instead.
>>
>botnet shit
Send everything to Google, etc.

>install upgrades without my consent from background
It fucks up my internet quota, it's not a problem for non-poorfag though.

Last but not least, I don't like browser that's made by advertising company, using it is a fucking dumb idea.

vivaldi doesn't have tree style tabs

Because I personally enjoy using Waterfox more. Addons are not a problem and speed is noticeably faster in Waterfox for me.

Enjoy your botnet.

Firefox has:
>More customization
>More respect for privacy
>Better font rendering (at least on Windows)
and isn't any slower anymore

It has something just as good, they're called tab stacks.
>>
>>53692065
and?
>>
>>53689654
Honestly I'm torn between Chrome and Safari. On the one hand Chrome has great add-ons and supports webm.

On the other Safari has Reader View/Reading List and natively supports AirPlay.

I'll likely switch back to Safari once it supports webm.

go away botnet shill

Vivaldi is a highly insecure project. First it is always behind Chromium/Chrome in version, and Google can pull every time the plug so that Vivaldi is not possible anymore.

They are creating their UI with a bundled app. Google has started to simplify the app system already with first now removing the app launcher. More simplifications will come up for sure soon.

Remember when Google enforced the single purpose mechanism on add-ons? If they simplify the app system, Vivaldi will be not possible anymore.

So, using Vivaldi is twice insecure and will lead you nowhere very soon.
>>
>>53691191
Vivaldi will be like Firefox without XUL and Full themes... Not customizable, same stupid like the origin browser used in background (Chromium).

So, Centbrowser, or Yandex Browser or even Brave or real Opera are more secure alternatives which Google can not screw up that easily.

If you like alternative design/ricing then these are your only Chromium alternatives. Or you wait until Otter Browser matures and gets QTWebengine (also Chromium).

But do yourself a favor and get rid of Vivaldi. Do not even think about using it. It is the same of a dead man walking project like Firefox with Australis ;)

why would I use Chrome if Opera is much better?
>>
>>53689654

Because I use Chromium.
>>
I use it.
I use Tor for illegal or questionable stuff.

>>53692458
Why do people meme so hard like this?
I know firefox has lately lost a lot of market share.But as of now it has stabilized.FF is still the 2nd most popular desktop browser
Yours is just a poor attempt at shilling
>>
I'm using Opera because of the mouse gestures.

But it's a chrome clone nowadays anyway, so I'm kinda of using chrome.
>>
>>53692065
Nobody cares about what you like or need anon.

He just answered the thread and explained why he doesn't use chrome.

I'm sorry for your autism.

>>53689654

>>53692065
Just because you don't care about the parts that make it shitty doesn't mean they're not there, retard
