I daily drive Firefox, but more and more websites are starting to break without Chromium, so I still have to occasionally switch to get something working. I was using Ungoogled Chromium until I realized that there was no easy way to update it when that pixel-stealing exploit came out a while back.

To be clear, I'm not talking about stock "no settings changed" Vivaldi. With that requirement, even Firefox could be called invasive! What I want to know is if Vivaldi is relatively safe to use with all the telemetry and stuff disabled in the settings and using any necessary extensions.

Thanks!

Isn't it weird that people complain about broken sites on firefox suddenly can't remember the website's name when asked?

Yeah. Sounds like Firefox is not the real issue here.

For me, the big one is I can't login to my synology nas with Librewolf or Firefox, I have to use Chrome. This used to work, but 6+ months ago it just shit the bed. It will take my username and password, and usually my totp, but just sit there spinning infinitely and never actually logging in.

I've had a few others over the last few months but they weren't repeated sites so I didn't note them. Definitely few and far between for me, except the nas.
