I am tempted to start using the @Vivaldi browser but then I looked* at the diversity in the underlying technology and I think it is better to promote and start using @firefox :firefox: more.

Or should we leave it to #Google :omya_google: and #Apple :apple_inc: only❓

I'm curious 😅 @Vivaldi why not use SpiderMonkey and Gecko❓

Vivaldi is not fully open-source

[–] vox@sopuli.xyz 5 points 11 months ago (2 children)

it's source-available

Is it? Vivaldi hides the 5% source code under "performance and security optimisations" reasons, which sounds like complete BS.

Your moms source available.
