Since last night I'm giving #vivaldi browser a try. So far great experience, uses much less memory than FF, integrated RSS reader, vertial tabs by default and side panels are a real plus.
Is it still true that Vivaldi is owned by their employees?
@louis I don't know how you customize your firefox but I certainly feel sluggishness interacting with the vivaldi UI, even when freshly installed. It is true that they have those marvelous tools on the sidebar and such, the customization options and keybindings are great, but the sluggish UI is the biggest reason I switched back to firefox/librewolf after about two days of test drive.
Then I've recreated the vertical tabs/sidebar in librewolf using some userChrome.css trick and Sidebery plugin, and it has served me well since. I find myself not really needing those sweet little integrated sidebar features since my workflow does not heavily rely on a browser, and I've already got the same functionality in emacs.
If you have no UI issues, then I'd say it's indeed a good browser, although proprietary, it gets the job done pleasantly.

My favourite quote of the night. And if you are not into programming, just replace "Programming languages" with whatever you can think of. It will still be true :-)
wait, does this author literally just copy paste this kind of bold statement in his books? i've never seen folks other than lisp programmers have the balls to say things like that
