Opera vs Vivaldi Comments
Every time I look at Opera these days, I get the impression they're more interested in squeezing out a little more profit for their parent conglomerate instead of making a good product for the people using it. One of Opera's founders left and founded Vivaldi, which has shaped up to be the real spiritual successor to the old Opera.
A agree with Opera lost it's way, they are just pulling out one browser variant of another, making a gaming browser, a KI browser and so on.
But other then looking fancy, are they really good? Vivaldi was started because Opera rejected things developer wanted to do and now it's just what can we do that more people are using this browser from this shady company to make more money.
- Opera is Free and Proprietary
United States
Opera is based on Chromium, and so is Vivaldi. But Vivaldi is innovative, Opera is stale and has abandoned its commitment to rethinking what a browser should be. Both are compatible with extensions for Chrome, and both are preferable to Chrome in terms of privacy. But given Vivaldi's existence, what is Opera for, or trying to do? Hard to say.
