So you’ve basically come here to tell me that you’re using 3rd party add-ons?

Oh, just piss off and quit wasting my time re Paphiti…

I only use uBlock Origin for Mozilla and Vivaldi. I do like uBlock, because the functionality of Vivaldi in particular is second to none, whilst Quantum Mozilla Forefox is stable and fast.

Opera doesn't need any third party add ons and blocks every single add out of the box.

All 3 browsers are in a league of their own for different reasons. I interchange between them, and use them simultaneously.

And I can have dozens of tabs open in each one, and stack them too. 8)

Get Real,

time for you to download the following:

1. Quantum Firefox
2. Vivaldi
3. Opera

to see what your competition is up to. :)

I literally like all 3 equally.

Out of the box, you will get adds for Quantum Firefox, and Vivaldi only. Add UBlock origin and you have a fortress against all adds, and no need to code into a 1970s style Netscape browser, that is slow and clunky. :lol:

Opera just exterminates all shitty adds out of the box. It's the add terminator from hell! 8)

I haven't seen an add in so long, I forgot adds even exist. :lol:

They don’t so quit making fools of your selves.

Only the Classic can handle both ads and cookie banners with no ad-ons because it is user-programmable.

Nothing else on the market at the moment is user-programmable.

Sorry dude, but I get no banner and no YouTube adds for the following set ups:

Mozilla + uBlock
Vivaldi + uBlock
Opera out of the box

Pyro,

download Opera and then see for yourself.

Then, also download Mozilla and Vivaldi and add uBlock to them. Technically not out of the box, but a much better set up overall.

You got nothing to lose from trying them out to see for yourself as you can uninstall later. Get Real is still in a spin and quite confused. :lol:

I had to get him to download Opera and Vivaldi a few months ago, which he did. But he hasn't downloaded the latest Mozilla yet unless he just did it on my tip. Mozilla went real bad a couple of years ago but then rolled out their Quantum Edition which is superb. I don't use Chrome. Even though you can configure it to be just as private, I just don't like it.

The reason why I like these 3 browsers are for the following reasons:

1. Mozilla is community based and open sourced with privacy being one of their hallmarks. It is also customizable, fast and stable. Great for browsing around.
2. Vivaldi is the worlds most customizable browser. You can stack tabs, pause tabs which automatically unpause when you open them which is great on resources, and is probably the best looking user interface there is. This is the browser from the original developers of Opera. It also has custom short cuts, quick commands, split screening and multitasking, and mouse gestures.
3. Opera, best browser for watching videos, movies and YouTube. It also has quick commands, mouse gestures, split screening and multitasking, and custom short cuts.

https://help.vivaldi.com/guide/key-feat ... ab-stacks/

In addition, all 3 browsers above actually have a privacy policy which they stick to because they are companies with staff. You can read it if you want.

Get all 3 a try and ditch Chrome if you know what is good for you.

And I am getting no adds at all on anything and it doesn't break websites like Get Real does with his html inputs which Chrome don't do only because they know it breaks many websites.

You just don’t get it Paphitis… there is no comparison because the browsers you mention are all commercial while mine is user oriented:

So I couldn’t care less if the browsers you mention are “prettier”, “cuter”, “fluffier” and I don’t know what else, because I don’t care about such things; they’re not important to me.

So start you own thread and talk about commercial browsers all you want... but kindly stay out of mine. Thanks.
