Anyone using Vivaldi browser? It is gloryfied by some tech news and i'm about to try it. Can anyone share their exeperiences with it?

How is the caniuse rate for it? So, the web standards compared to chrome?

Use it pretty regularly yeah (although Firefox is still my main browser) and except for some flickering (could be my monitor though) it works great! Love the customisability!

@unrealchrisp It's based on Chromium which is what Chrome is based on but I can't answer your question I think

@linuxxx just installed it...the customizability options...wow.
And i have just seen that it uses extensions from chrome webstore. If it's not a memory hog like they advertised this will be great improvement. Chrome without chrome

It's my main browser. I love it.
The only downside is that it doesn't support bookmark sync yet. You can browse the web without mouse with vivaldi.

@heyheni it sure looks promising. The important thing is that i imported my bookmarks easily, not really worried about sync yet :) i decided to try it mostly because of the speed and bc they said it was light with ram consumption

I like it, because you can customize basically everything in it.
The tradeoff is the lack of a syncing function (although i was told to try out "xmarks", a plugin which does the job, but i didn't tried that out yet). The mentioned flickering bug occurs also on my machine, too. And, since the last release, threads of closed tabs are not being killed; they run forever (until you kill them manually :D). But i think, those problems are some "growing pains" and they will fix them. So, yes, i would recommend it.

I use it all the time. Very customizable when it comes to the browser UI. In fact, I learned keyboard shortcuts because of it.

@ToTheMax i haven't seen the flicker yet, but i did notice the threads (at least they close when i exit the browser, so i can deal with it for now :) ). They will sort it out probably, but even with this it's light on the resources and i would say that it is faster than chrome/firefox?

I liked it, but it unfortunately couldn't replace Chrome for me yet, although I can't really explain why. I loved the customisability, but it doesn't just feel 'complete' enough yet. 😂
