Ahh can’t escape the ghost of chromium I see. No offense taken from anyone who bashes on Vivaldi as I’m not dying on a hill to defend it, but of the browsers I’ve used I like the balance it strikes between what compromises that were made.

Funny enough, before making the switch to it as my main browser, I gave Firefox another shot and liked most of the experience. I also remembered using it quite a bit in middle/high school and generally had a positive experience from those times.

I only decided to go with Vivaldi instead due to the ease of customization over the gui and how certain elements could be dynamically hidden/shown as needed. It was a niche demand of a browser on my part. I remember having a somewhat rough time getting Firefox to do similar things while not intruding on the look or function of other parts of the browser, but I haven’t looked at Firefox recently and how the UX has changed since, and if it weren’t for the previously mentioned personal/niche functionality I was looking for, I think I would have stuck with Firefox over Chrome.

How about Vivaldi?? I’ve switched since last year and it’s been pretty great of a browser. There’s the focus on privacy, ethical/transparent policies, and its development team are users of fediverse socials!

But führer musk is rich so he doesn’t have to play by acting-president trump’s rules.

He might have been looking in a mirror when thinking of what kind of demographic to blame

Now I’m curious if the vpn I use will consider a similar approach going forward (PIA).

Sure he said he was going to do those things and had weapons, but for all we know, he could be a “fine person, a great man” there to “peacefully protest” like those that got pardoned for Jan 6th. 😒

I can see how some people can be a tad dramatic at times with rhetoric, but the writing is on the wall in regard to the Nazi salute Elon Musk did at his speech. You have to call a pig, a pig, no matter how much lipstick it might have on to distract you from the fact otherwise.

But I digress a bit. What exactly is the point you were referring to, that I and others seem to be missing? That Trump’s words are just words and because other people who don’t have anywhere near the power/authority/wealth say things in a similar manner back at him/his “friends” his actions and speech should be dismissed, justified even??
