Since Brave is apparently absolutely terrible, is Vivaldi any better IF YOU CAN'T USE FIREFOX*? - lemm.ee
lemm.eeI daily drive Firefox, but more and more websites are starting to break without Chromium, so I still have to occasionally switch to get something working. I was using Ungoogled Chromium until I realized that there was no easy way to update it when that pixel-stealing exploit came out a while back.
To be clear, I’m not talking about stock “no settings changed” Vivaldi. With that requirement, even Firefox could be called invasive! What I want to know is if Vivaldi is relatively safe to use with all the telemetry and stuff disabled in the settings and using any necessary extensions.
Thanks!

Discord is the biggest one for me, pissed me off enough to keep me off it. If you try to do voice calls it tells you to download the app or install chrome
I use discord on FF and have never seen that. Only issue I have is that I can’t upload stuff to the sound board.
I’ve heard that from a couple of people but it’s been consistent for me. I’ll post a screenshot later. Dunno what it is but would be glad if it’s just a switch I have to flip or something.
Maybe you messed up your mic perms or something. Only thing I can think of.
