I ditched Chrome for the Vivaldi browser, and it’s awesome

My primary PCs have been MacBook Airs for nearly a decade now, and for most of that time, I’ve used a mix of Safari and Google Chrome as my browsers. I then had a brief stint with Mozilla Firefox, but its performance was pretty disappointing. Now, I’m using the Vivaldi browser and I’m pretty sure I’ve found the one.
Why I wanted to change my browser
There are two main things I want from a browser: privacy and good features. (I want performance as well but that much ought to go without saying.) With my awkward mix of Safari and Chrome, I wasn’t getting what I wanted at all.
While Google’s browser is quite feature-packed and has a never-ending supply of extensions, its privacy policy is frankly horrendous and I no longer want anything to do it.
Safari is a tiny bit better with privacy but is completely lacking in features — or at least the kind of features I want.
I first decided I wanted to change browsers when this whole “EU tech sovereignty” thing started (I’m currently living in Denmark). I switched my email provider to Proton Mail and changed a few other things. I already used Signal as my messenger and I don’t have any personal social media profiles so I was already golden on that front.
