Comment on I'm really annoyed by how much Brave Search is pushing AI

  Probably.

  Opera is shady. Vivaldi is developed by the people who used to develop Opera, back when it was its own thing and before it sold out to Chinese investors.

    Vivaldi is closed-source. Can it be trusted?

      I dunno. Everything I’ve seen and heard seems perfectly legit.

      But it’s yet another chromium fork, and I don’t use it.

      I did for a while, as it has some very nice features, but it would consistently open without resuming my session. It would work for months and then just out of nowhere it would open up as if it was just installed. Everything gone. Utterly unacceptable.

  I don’t think you’re replying to my comment though, I never mentioned nor used Vivaldi.

    Did you read what you linked? That's what they're quoting.

      Vivaldi slipped my mind, my bad. No need for that tone though.

    Don’t stress over it. I didn’t read the entire thing either. It’s a relatively long article.

    I Read the first few paragraphs and then when the ADHD kicked in I skim scrolled all the way to the bottom where “Vivaldi” caught my eye

      Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated and have a great day.

      On topic, I have no opinion on Vivaldi, never used it. But then again I’ve been on Firefox for the last 15 years so… I’m a bit of a lost cause!
