Hi everyone, with the whole Firefox ToS change and it’s fingerprinting I asked on mastodon if anyone could recommend a web browser alternative to Firefox and was recommend to go with Vivaldi due to their no fingerprinting, and allowing unlock to still work even though it uses manifest v3.
I am already switching to librefox on windows, and fence on android.
But I wanted to ask if the claims for vivaldi where true?

you can’t use uBlock with Vivaldi
Yes you can. I have it installed and it’s running fine.
It works just fine actually, the full (non-lite) version. For how long is still a question but the Vivaldi devs are keeping manifest v2 support alive for now.
You can use Ublock Origin Lite.
not the same ☞ Filtering capabilities which can’t be ported to MV3
That’s what I was assuming, but wanted to confirm. Thanks
Note that they have their own ad-blocker (not as good as uBo, mind you).
