Comments about Waterfox as an Alternative to Vivaldi
- Much faster in my experience
- Even more customizable, just expect to spend more time doing so with extensions and possibly custom CSS
- FULLY Free and Open Source
- privacy oriented
- Supports most chrome extensions (the only exceptions ive seen are those that manipulate audio, though i opt for firefox-native extensions where possible)
- Longevity. It's good to know that it's been around for as long as it has (since 2011!), so I can know it's not likely to be discontinued.
Essentially the same as firefox but with less fire.. ...more water? Very solid browser and very fast however.

Most users think Waterfox is a great Vivaldi alternative.
- Waterfox is Free and Open Source
- Waterfox is Lightweight









































I like to think of Waterfox as a lighter and faster Vivaldi. It has a respectable amount of customizability, although it doesn't compare to Vivaldi's level. What it boasts instead is a faster browsing experience and (in my opinion) a firmer stance on user privacy. I say this last bit solely because Waterfox is open source, unlike Vivaldi, which is only partially open source.
