When Opera 12 died. Fuck chromium. Fuck Vivaldi. Firefox is the only legit non-chromium browser.

Vivaldi is a great browser but it sucks that it uses Chromium as a base

I usually use Firefox but still use Vivaldi some

See and my whole thing when Opera died was if I wanted to use chromium I'd use chromium. I get their decisions but at the same time they completely pissed on why many of us felt that Opera was the best browser.

What was even more amazing was it was two products! Not only did Opera shit the bed pivoting to chromium. Those who left and started Vivaldi also doubled down on chromium. So not just one company pissing on their users but two! Amazing!

Yup, same here. Tried many browsers back then. Always came back to FF. Now its Librewolf on Desktop and Fennec on Mobile. Both firefox-based.
