I'm happy with Whoogle
Just by looking at the homepage, I'm not. See where it says "F*** the algorithm!". That's not what I want to see, on the homepage of my search-engine.
But it could just be that one instance. If it is, then you probably shouldn't link to that instance. Because that's going to turn people off to Whoogle. Most people won't know what an instance is, and won't understand that Whoogle itself isn't responsible for the profanity on the homepage.
//MODEDIT: censored profanity

@eggcorn , yes, it's only this instance with this message. but I don't see this, because I use it only in the adress bar, my homepage and new tab page are empty.

Yandex is terrible company they are using almost viruses to ads yourself, very aggressive advertising policy. I left opera because they set after every update this search engine by default, very annoying. And they have own browser which will be promoted in search queries on all their sites. Do not know why you work with them.
-
I'm converted and loving it!
-
@gwen-dragon Well to its philosophy, at least. Remember that Vivalid, like me, was a priest, though he was far more creative than I am!
-
Thank you for using your time and passion to give us this amazing interface!

Do you guys still making a good profit? Feel kinda sad that I been using Google searches for a while
-
@swiftypop Wanna increase gain? Use Vivaldi partner bookmarks, pPromote Vivaldi, help in forum, donate some small amount of money, buy some merchndise. See https://vivaldi.com/contribute/ ;

@wildchild85: Try startpage, it uses Google as backend. It is just a proxy between you and Google, to avoid tracking from Google. You give up personalized search results, because you are not tracked by Google. However, the quality is the same as anonymous Google search.

@olgaa I'm sorry, but I have a different kind of problem. After a week of using Vivaldi, the browser began to block access to the Internet. I constantly began to write that I was a robot. Before that, I used Opera. But there were no such problems there, what can this be related to? And about the fact that Vivaldi uses some data ( I hope not all), I have no complaints. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't use browsers in general.

@mihail100 Pleas ask about issues at https://forum.vivaldi.net/category/2/support-troubleshooting

@doctorg sounds like a bot to me.
-
@npro Har har. Yeah, no.

@ayespy said in What’s Vivaldi’s business model?:
Yeah, no.
I still don't believe that, it's so out of place and talking about robots and being sorry (and having just registered to say that as 1st post), that it can't be otherwise
-
@npro I am acquainted with DoctorG, who is not a new user, nor unfamiliar with certain members of the community. Real person. I guarantee you.
-
@ayespy ok then
-
@mihail100 Just for the record, as much at would be cool with robot detection in Vivaldi we are not doing that. But I guess you just have to take my word for that (and a bunch of other things ).
