Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I tried Vivaldi but sadly it still wasn't the opera alternative I was looking for.

I feel like this is a classical music joke but I’m not sure if you meant it as one.

Nope. Vivaldi is an excellent chromium-based browser with a ton of features built in that would be extensions on chrome or FF.

It's made by devs who left Opera after it started getting scummy.

Use Firefox or one of its forks/alternatives, Google has defacto control of the web standards. As the vast majority of browsers use it's engine.

Firefox is the only way to stop this control over the web and keep it open. Safari is also an option for some, but Chrome is based on a forked version of Safaris engine and Google is able to wag the tail to control the dog.

Most of the vocals are more choral than solos
