Also it seams some people are confusing my android setup with my PC setup so I’ll write it down.

    Still a proprietary black box you shouldn’t trust and chromium based so you reinforce the chromium monopoly

      Why is vivaldi helping a chromium monopoly?

      I understand it is based on chrome tech, and I guess that means it can use chrome extensions maybe? But how does it help chrome if people use it?

        It uses Google’s browser engine base called Chromium, which Chrome is based on (the used engine is called “Blink”). A lot of websites are made to just function well on Chromium and maybe Safari

      Agreed, but occasionally I have to use a site that doesn’t work properly on Firefox-based browsers. I mostly use Cromite to deal with that, but want a backup in case Cromite dies like its predecessor Bromite did.
