Be friends with Vivaldi!!
Been there, done that, found more holes in vivaldi than the chrome itself, switched up to LibreWolf (a hardened fork of firefox.)
Nice to see LibreWolf getting some attention. Great fork
Vivaldi still uses Chromium as a base, so you're still supporting Google and Chrome. Literally only Firefox and its forks use a different rendering engine (used to be Gecko, I think it's Quantum now). If you are using a browser with Blink as a rendering engine, you're using Google code, and Google will still be in control of your browser.
doesn't safari also hav it's own engine?
It does, but Safari is not cross-platform only macOS and iOS. Firefox is on Windows, Linux (x86 and ARM variants), macOS, Android, and iOS.
It's still Gecko, Quantum is the frontend.
Thank you for the clarification!
