    If you don't care you shouldn't care to tell others about it either.

    As soon as you tell others, others will tell you.

      Does Vivaldi not just use the Chrome store for extensions? Also, aren't they losing manifest V2 as soon as it's dropped from Chromium in a few more months?

      Not sure how Vivaldi uses extensions since you cannot add new ones from the chrome store, but if that happens we're gonna need to go to Firefox eventually. I currently love Vivaldi due to simplicity and the swipe up to open tabs page. Wish more browsers integrated that or just better & fluid animations

        I take this as a sign that it genuinely still works to block ads and hasn’t sold out and become malware like those others that used to be popular.

          Just to be clear, I mean it's literally managed at the Group Policy level (in Windows server environments at least) and no amount of asking will suddenly give your user account permissions to be able to save files of any kind.

          You generally literally cannot download it without going through IT to get them to approve of and give your account access first.

                Like I said it will be unpopular, but it's about to expire anyway.

                A more helpful response would be to recommend an alternative

                  switch to firefox (or a fork of firefox like librewolf).

                  vivaldi just uses chrome's web store (there's a discussion on the forums to build their own extension store but no movement yet: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/91160/vivaldi-s-own-extension-store/20)

                    I'm trying. I'm trying so hard. But it keeps pissing me off because I have to dig through settings to undo changes they made to browser features that are standard across both Firefox and Chrome. It's free and I'm not tryig to sound entitled but almost every single change they made to Chromium aside from the privacy stuff has me going WHYYYYYY?

                    The way they handle open in new tab, tlds like.internal, and ctrl+click to complete urls were the worst offenders off the top of my head.

                    Plus their ad blocker doesn't even come close to uBlock Lite.

                    I just want v8 in a hardened vanilla Firefox wrapper that doesn't go to the extremes that LibreWolf goes) 😞

                      Probably not a popular choice, but my VPN comes with an ad blocker which works great.

                      I'm still using Nord VPN as I got an insane deal a few years ago. Now it has something called Threat Protection which blocks all ads whether on my desktop browsers or on mobile.

                      ✨Edit to add:
                      Yeah down vote me. Nord was a blackfriday deal from 3 years ago. Much has changed since then.

                      I travel full time and I'm now in the market for a new VPN provider. I don't have my own router.. I don't even have a home.

                      Instead of just down voting, perhaps come with some constructive ideas or suggestions, thank you! ✨

                          If you had uBlock origin already, you may have gotten a message through Chrome that it was no longer supported, so it's been disabled, and gives you the option to remove it. I noticed you don't have to remove it, and it can be re-enabled. However, I need someone smarter with adblockers than I to say if this is actually helpful and not hazardous.

                                A good IT is blocking ads at a company-level. Browser extensions wouldn’t matter, and in fact, shouldn’t be allowed for the same reason.

                                I'm not always working in the office, and they've asked us to connect to VPN only if we need access to the internal network. Email and Teams work without VPN, but now you want me to log in for web access? A browser blocker is better imo.

                                      I'm using the mobile app which doesn't let you use extensions from the chrome store, if you guys are talking desktop, I might be wrong.

                                          I noticed they recently marked it deprecated or unsupported (i forget the wording) and tried to get me to remove it. I think it was even disabled automatically. I kinda saw this coming.
