great solution. instead of Chrome or MS-Chrome, you install V-Chrome. Such a big difference! It really is a completely new theme for Chrome, isn't it? Oh and they have a built-in adblocker which is far less capable than uBlock Origin but it is built-in! isn't that great?

It's not just skin. If it was just like any other Chromium based browser I wouldn't bother but there isn't any browser that has great features like Vivaldi which makes working with multiple tabs a breeze. And they don't collect any telemetry either. Not even crash logs.

Plus, you can say pretty much that every browser with built-in adblock is worse than uBlock Origin... That's not the point...
