    if I recall correctly many adblockers (including uBlock origin) stopped working a while ago on chrome when chrome implemented manifest v3.0 for extensions

      Hasn’t happened quite yet. uBlock Origin on Chrome is much less robust than on Firefox, that’s for sure. Manifest 3 is finishing it’s rollout this month and we’re looking at not being able to functionally use adblockers in Chrome very soon.

        Ah okay, thanks for the info. I don’t use chrome myself and haven’t been reading up on the whole ordeal recently so my information was a bit outdated lol

      Been there, done that, found more holes in vivaldi than the chrome itself, switched up to LibreWolf (a hardened fork of firefox.)

      Vivaldi still uses Chromium as a base, so you’re still supporting Google and Chrome. Literally only Firefox and its forks use a different rendering engine (used to be Gecko, I think it’s Quantum now). If you are using a browser with Blink as a rendering engine, you’re using Google code, and Google will still be in control of your browser.
