You know when I have this issue? If i start the computer with no internet connection. If I do so, when I open #VivaldiBrowser I am asked to log in into my Vivaldi account. Sync is usually not affected.

Praise @Vivaldi ! Although it’s not (yet) my default browser, I love it more and more. Vivaldi offers more customization than most, puts privacy first, and doesn’t push anything on you. No forced sign-ups, no bloat, no unwanted AI, just an efficient browser that keeps you in control.

Developed in Europe, with a human-centric approach to the internet. If you value privacy and choice, give it a try.

Here are comments on the evolution of browser share in a year.
(The three samples are heavily skewed to English-speaking higher eds.)
Last year results: techhub.social/@estelle/112047
You may still answer in the previous toot.

3/4 Fediverse members use #Firefox proper. Same as last year.
We welcome other parts of the Firefox family (any browser with Gecko inside):
• The share of Librewolf mentions doubled since last year.
• The share of other Gecko-based forks mentions also doubled since last year. (Even though some Waterfox usage is not logged because i did not list it.)

The shares of Chrome and Vivaldi were stable for the first thousand answerers (maybe more IT inclined) but doubled with the later thousand (in the last 24 hours).

The share of the last line (Opera-Blink-Brave mentions) decreased since last year.
