I’m looking into Firefox alternatives as I wanna see what’s available. Being Norwegian, Vivaldi seems like a good choice to replace Firefox on desktop and Safari on iOS. Tried it for a night and it works pretty good. I do however have reservations about it being based on Chromium.
How much power does Google actually have over Vivaldi? And would it actually matter for my quest for degoogling myself?
In case anyone’s wondering. I’m also looking into LibreWolf.
Edit: Rewrote the start as people got too hung up on Firefox.
I can definitely recommend Librewolf over Vivaldi if you don’t need crazy levels of customization. To me it was just much more than what I needed so I went with Librewolf which is also obviously a lot lighter. Vivaldi being based on Chromium is pretty much the only criticizable thing about the project. Henry from Techlore interviewed their CEO not long ago, look it up, it was quite interesting.
Also, I am planning on moving to Norway in the next two to three years, would you mind if I messaged you privately with a couple questions?
No problem, fire away!
