Like a lot of people, I’ve done the full tour from Mosaic, through Mozilla and Phoenix/Firebird to Firefox and have spent much of the last quarter of a century in the Firefox fold. During that time I’ve also spent a fair time with one foot in the Safari camp and have occasionally checked in with Chrome (just to see what the fuss was about). A couple of years ago, I stumbled across Vivaldi and I realised recently that it’s sort of become my browser of choice. I love it’s customisation and speed and as OP said, it’s tab management is the best out there.
Sadly, it feels like were back in 2005 when IE ruled the roost and set the rules (very badly), and Chrome was the brave new world that was going to reclaim the web for the common man. Now we’re looking to Firefox to save the day. Maybe it will, maybe it won’t, but I honestly think there is genuine mileage in supporting projects like Vivaldi (whatever you may feel about Chromium), and let’s face it, it doesn’t take long to download a browser and check it out for a couple of hours.
