With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

Moistly ui issues that Vivaldi. Plus on most linux distro you get a file picker tgat can't show thumb nails

Only the GNOME/GTK file picker did not display thumbnails for a while, but this functionality has now been available in all file pickers for some time.

Well the GNOME team fixed tge newest version but that didn't cause all the distros to start using it. My version of Firefox still used the old one a few days ago even when my otger browsers use a modetn dolphin file picker

I meant that most major distributions had KDE available for those who were bothered by the lack of thumbnails.

?

also file pickers that show thumbnails on linux from what i've seen are extremely commonplace

[–] joel_feila@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

File picker and file and file manager are differential. Just a few days i swapped to Firefox and itcstill used the old gnome file picker even though other vrowsers use they dolphin one on my distro.

Their point is probably that the UI doesn't look like what they're used to with Chromium-based browsers.

To be honest, that's kept me from using Vivaldi in the past, too.
