How is Vivaldi with security? I had used it for a few months a few years ago before I started caring for my own privacy but never looked in to it. I know it’s by former opera devs but that’s the extent. Is it FOSS?

I'm no security expert but I've heard that although it's not the absolute safest, it's still pretty good. There's some options you can check when first running it. A starting point may be their official privacy page

Just rediscovered Vivaldi recently and I’m really liking it. I can see why people could call it ‘bloated’ but if you take advantage of all of the customizations and features offered then it can really work for you. Just works with my workflow beautifully.

This became my work browser a few months back and I love how it just does its job and doesn’t get in my way.
