Not surprised you forgot Opera. Opera who? Their UI turned for the worst and they add bloatware on top of it.
Vivaldi has become refuge for former Opera users. What Opera used to be. Regular Update and improvements

Brave Browser too becoming a gaint of bloatware browsers...
Glad to have Vivaldi [I enjoy browsing with your work!!!]
Hoping for a iOS version soon as mentioned, fingers crossed for 2022 and new things.

@susanbn I like the new Firefox UI :|

[guigirl]

featuring most of your favorite browsers — and Edge!

Firefox redesigns its UI, and upsets everyone
The new floating tab design felt bloated

Well, not everyone, & I, for one, never saw any hassles in my tabstrip...

is to go to Google right now

Only after i've finished building my snowperson in hell.

Nice article. Also, qed, great to know that the office must now be fully open for business once more, ipso facto... new Snappie tomorrow -- cool.

Omega ?

Here I recall the new Opera saying they wanted to be uncluttered and to "get out of the way" of your browsing experience not so long ago. Whatever happened to that?

Opera ... wanted to ... "get out of the way" of your browsing experience

That certainly was successful for me...

@guigirl …and for some others as well btw.

Severe Vivaldi fails for me:
DRM and codecs issues on Linux & Windows at video portals or PayTV.

Lingvanex Translate fails again!
I am not able to translate the page to German.
Seems Vivaldi Translate server is broken.

/edit:
Now Vivaldi server wants to have some work.

Huh! Vivaldi translates:

ROFLCOPTER Trophy for Vvialdi!

In reality means this for our non-Germanish speakers:
Knödel is a dumpling. food!
Lätzchen is a bib.

Oh, yes, Vivaldi is a Laughly browser

[jane.n]

@doctorg a sys admin is looking into the issue already.

[DoctorG]

@jane-n Server works again!?

[DoctorG]

@jane-n Translate from adressbar works but not as text from French to German in Translate panel.
Translate is partly broken.

Brave could never be trusted. Privacy centric while having a ads rewards program. AhHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa

Overall I think Vivaldi have done well in 2021.

Saying that - please give me something to play with on my iPhone.....and please can I have it tomorrow?

6. Firefox removes Compact Mode!

New Tab design is still okay in compact mode, even kinda nice. But removal of the Compact Mode is totally unacceptable! It can still be found in about:config settings (for now).

Firefox on android tries to add more and more bloatware to your Home screen, like: Pocket, Recent Bookmarks, Recently visited, Jump back in (whatever that is). While the core functionality - to pin your favorite sites is lacking for a long time, it doesn't even have an option to display sites as a list view!

7. Vivaldi Tabs reordering animation redesign

I miss the old animation so much!

V blog article:

The easiest way to highlight how much Safari messed up with their update to the iPhone browser’s address bar is to go to Google right now, and search for “iPhone address bar”."

French translation:

La manière la plus simple de mettre en évidence à quel point Safari a gâché sa mise à jour de la barre d’adresse du navigateur sur iPhone est d’aller sur un moteur de recherche et d’entrer « iPhone address bar »
