At @[email protected] , we make browsers. Powerful browsers, with more functionality than others, but still browsers.

What we are not is:

  1. An OS company.
  2. A search company.
  3. An ad company.
  4. An AI company.

None of our major competitors can really say the same. We focus on doing one thing really well.

If you like that, give us a try! If you are already with us, please share with your friends!

@jon @Vivaldi I'd use it if it drops Chromium.

Firefox's browser engine is ripe for a fork and hoping that Vivaldi is considering this. :)

@rom @Vivaldi

We made the choice to use Chromium. Changing that is not trivial and would be quite risky.

@[email protected] Honest question: Given that you use Chromium, doesn't this make you completely downstream-dependent of Google?

I feel like "not being an ad company" is nice, but depending that much on an ad company isn't much better either.
