VIVALDI IS THE BEST WEB BROWSER YOUVE NEVER USED

There’s no shortage of web browsers tempting those who want a new browsing experience. Google’s Chrome browser leads the pack, followed by Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, Opera, and many, many more.

Chances are you’ve heard of these, and maybe tried them all. Now, though, there’s a new browser on the scene, trying to push through the crowd to get into the cool group. It’s called Vivaldi, and its roots stem from Opera, the plucky underdog of the web browsing world which, if you ask many long-time users, went off the rails. The Vivaldi web browser was born to calm those disgruntled Opera natives. It accomplishes much more than that.

I quit Firefox when it kept freezing and the online fixes didn't work for me.
I'm now using Chrome and read your link for a reason to switch to Vivaldi,
and didn't see one for me.

I use Seamonkey. Been using it for years. It's a cousin to Firefox and uses a lot of the same add-ons. And it is easy to tweak with about:config. Comes with its own email client unlike Firefox. I also have Comodo Icedragon installed on my computer and use that from time to time. It too is a cousin to Firefox but unlike Seamonkey it doesn't come with an email client. I haven't tried Vivaldi but maybe I will. Thanks.
