I've been playing with it on and off for a while; currently I only have one blocker. A few months back they added lazy tab loading at startup with no option to disable it and reload everything. This breaks tabs with pages that auto-update and show new content in a different style (or just load an x new items notice); as well as those where i use my short term memory to do the same thing unless I want to click my way across the entire tab bar to force them to load.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'm not keen on the way it composes the pages.

Yeah, sounds interesting, but it's just another kind of Chrome since it's built on the same source as Chrome, i.e., Chromium. So it'll have the same sort of "issues", namely memory and resource hoggishness.

Wiki says it was founded by Opera Software co-founder.
Don't know if there was a Chrome connection.

Many people say that if a browser uses Chromium then it's "just a Chrome clone." But a web browser is more than just the rendering engine.

And "Chromium" is more than just the rendering engine. It's an entire browser.

The point is that there's more to a web browser than just the fact that it uses Chromium. They have different feature sets. Whether any particular user cares for these differences is subjective though. But it's silly to say that these other browsers are "just clones."

Sure just as it would be silly to say that humans are merely clones of one another rather than different kinds of the same thing. I see the point, but I didn't say it's a "clone" but rather a different kind of "Chrome" (i.e, of the same genus). Sorta like saying of a certain individual, oh, he's a Xyxxzing, so you can expect XYZ from him. I was merely pointing out that Vivaldi will have the same sorts of issues as Chrome does since they're both based on the same source. That is, descended from the same stock.

Yes, I agree with that and I acknowledge my mistake in the first post. Just emphasising that features differ and for some they matter, for others not.

I didn't say anything about who or how Vivaldi was founded but on how the software is written and upon what it is based.
Google's Chrome browser is based on the open software project "Chromium".
Vivaldi's browser is also based on "Chromium" and that is the only way the can support all Chrome extensions.

I have it installed. It has some interesting features and I will probably use it for specialised tasks but it's not quite polished enough for me yet.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
