Is it no longer possible for vivaldi to extend preso or develop its own browser kernel?
-
I miss preso's great performance performance and opera preso's private tab
No matter how much vivaldi modifies chromium's source code, it can't change its framework, which means that vivaldi is constrained by chromium's architecture and can't implement certain ideas, such as the privacy tab

@poto , you can open a privacy window in Vivaldi without problems, that isn't a problem.
A own browserengin is a lot of work, because it's the most complicate part of a browser. For this reason currently all browser uses one of the 3 engines (WebKit, Blink or Gecko). Vivaldi is a small team and don't have the capability to create Vivaldi with a new engine from scratch.
But this has nothing to do with the possibility of the browser itself, it not límited in any manner to improve new ideas, I think that Vivaldi proved it as the most feature rich browser out there. -
