    @jon@vivaldi.net I used FF since its first release, its my workhorse, and I use a lot of privacy plugins. I like the Interface, its fast, zoom is good, And my perception is, the plugin interface is more open and there are more powerful plugins as with chome based browsers

    also I liked opera in the past and such the vivaldi concept is really nice.
    its fast, the redraw when zooming is distracting, zoom could have more finer steps,

      @jon I never tested if vivaldi could replace my thunderbird… but is mixing stuff in one programm really a good idea?
      perhaps I will try in a VM one day.

      and I would like to see if vivaldi would support other mastodon instances…

      PS: on Android vivaldi is my favorite but please: fdroid store!

        @schnedan ,

        We have found that having things integrated has significant benefits, but of course there is a bit of getting used to. Give it a try!

        As a side note, it is easy to run multiple instances of Vivaldi, so you can run Mail, Calendar and Feeds in one instance and most of your Web browsing in another. There is flexibility here.

          @jon@vivaldi.net its more like, if something is broken I will lose browser, mail,… all at the same time

          I run Archlinux with fast update pace… There was never an issue with vivaldi in years, but some risk remains.

          On the contrary, if thunderbird would break, I would face the same problems. No mail is an issue 😉
