Extensions on Vivaldi standalone

@Priest72 adding custom search engine URLs and pre-installed bookmarks is exactly how they earn apx $1.00/user/annum. If they collected and sold user data like everyone else, they would already be profitable.
-
@Ayespy Thank you for that information.
To be clear i fully understand revenue needs to fund vivaldi and that is just fine.So using the pre-installed bookmarks would be beneficial to vivaldi.
I am not going to hurl 20 questions at you as it will be annoying.

@Ayespy Selling user data implies it’s being sold to a third party I assume? All browsers do this, you think this is normal? You might want to row back on that claim, because I believe you can’t back it up.
-
@luetage I never said I thought it was "normal." It's a crime in my view, but I can't actually do anything about it. I can't find strong evidence that there are ANY browsers other than Vivaldi that literally collect and sell no user data at all. But I'm open to being educated.
-
@Ayespy No, it’s the other way around. I asked you to back up your claim that all browsers but Vivaldi are selling user data to third parties.

That’s not how it works. You could practically argue and claim anything this way. For example I couldn’t find strong evidence that all NBA players are NOT Russian spies, therefore they are. But I’m open to being educated, bring evidence for each player that they aren’t a spy.
???
Look, I’m sorry, it doesn’t really matter in the end and it’s a silly argument. You’re enthusiastic about Vivaldi and that’s great, but we can’t just blindly throw untenable accusations around, it isn’t needed.
