Vivaldi
Me | Now | Me

Does anyone know anything about Vivaldi?

I was looking for a privacy browser for the new ?Chromebook I was given. Brave doesn't seem to want to download, but the web search pulled up the Vivaldi browser. (I guess you could say it's a browser for all four seasons.)

Anyone used this browser? Know anything about it?

Download Brave on another computer and put it on a thumb drive and try installing it that way

There’s a you tube video where a German violinist named Anne Sophia Mutter leads the orchestra playing Four Seasons. She’s great. as to the browser, I understand it’s good Spring Summer Fall and Winter.

Had good luck with Brave. I’d stick with that.

I don’t presently use Vivaldi, but I liked it in the past because it allows you to have a real menu bar instead of a stupid “hamburger”. I believe Chromium underlies it like everything else current except Firefox.

although I presume Brave and Edge removed a lot of that.

Yes, but in the case of Edge, I presume Microsoft added in "new and improved" MICROSOFT hooks.

Sometimes when I felt particularly impish I would drive into the campus parking lot, windows down like the students, blasting music like the students, but it being organ transcriptions of Vivaldi.

You radical you. Did you part your hair differently and undo the top shirt button, too? Just wait until the head of your department hears of this scandalous behavior!

Seriously though, if you're still teaching what with this lunacy going on please be safe.

Vivaldi was a hack.

The Beatles were better.

It’s a mozilla fork. I used to use it a few years back. It’s okay. May choke on some more modern websites.

No, it is Chromium-based.

Yes, despite being Chromium-based it is better than Chrome and Edge. Thread: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3930575/posts

I use two stand-alone installs of it. Along with many portable Firefox.

There is also this good (so far) Firefox (Gecko) derivative.

Before being named Firefox, it was called variously Phoenix (having risen from the ashes of Netscape Navigator) and also the same name as one of Stravinsky’s most famous works.

Cf. “https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox#Branding_and_visual_identity“.

Yes, familiar with Firebird, which began life as a ballet and rocketed Igor to fame with the Parisian crowd, who later rioted after his Rite of Spring 😆. Glory is fleeting.
