I am tempted to start using the @Vivaldi browser but then I looked* at the diversity in the underlying technology and I think it is better to promote and start (cdn.fosstodon.org)

I am tempted to start using the @Vivaldi browser but then I looked* at the diversity in the underlying technology and I think it is better to promote and start using @firefox :firefox: more.

Or should we leave it to #Google :omya_google: and #Apple :apple_inc: only❓

I'm curious 😅 @Vivaldi why not use SpiderMonkey and Gecko❓

@dmenis @Vivaldi @firefox

Maybe Gecko still hasn't become embeddable again❓:

@ramon @Vivaldi @firefox

#Vivaldi's choice is understandable

Consequence is that we will end up with only 2. With the development driven by :apple_inc: and :omya_google:
