Vivaldi's tweaky grinders fire out another release: Add themes, security

LordLestat

Vivaldi's features are great.

But Chromium is garbage. Especially now where Chromium devs have killed GDI rendering which creates blurry fonts. This screws up also rendering on low end graphics chips which results in heavy scrolling glitches if you have your bars in a different location than standard.

Really can not understand the Vivaldi developers that they have not chosen Mozilla's Gecko engine as source base, not that complex to understand like Chromium and even if Mozilla are morons, they are not complete morons like the Chromium developers.

Vivaldi's feature set is really refreshing and a blessing for powe users or advanced users. But as long as they use a crappy source base, Vivaldi is utter crap too.

The future of Firefox is … Chrome

And here we have it. Since Australis people told that Mozilla is going to copy Chrome more and more... And nobody wanted to believe it. What for a better prove that it is true than that news?

It is all Mozilla's old jealousy and dislike of Google with Google Chrome which drives them to do exactly that. Google abused them, "good-will guiding them" to implement minimalism (Australis) instead of features and customization into Firefox, users have been running away as a result and after Mozilla was weakened enough, Google gave them the boot.

If Mozilla wants to survive, they should kick out minimalism and implement again features and customization, stop being jealous of Chrome's massive market share and stop their hate relationship with them and just ignore Google.

But they can't. Their ego is in full control. That is their problem. And this is the reason why they will fail. How is it called? Self fulfilling prophecy?

Re: And Marissa

And the result will be that Google is buying Yahoo to enlarge their market share dominance!

Anyone wonders now what will happen to the Mozilla deal? Too bad Mozilla had no better option after Google got them the boot, looks like they are facing some more problems now beside of user loss thanks to cloning Chrome as much as possible ;)

Anyway, not crying for Yahoo. Another greedy comp which was ordering more than they have been able to consume. Good riddance!
