Vivaldi ist eine clevere Chrome-Alternative: Der Browser bietet viele Funktionen und lässt sich flexibel anpassen. Und Werbe-Tracker blockiert er auch noch.

Some people are wildly off base and completely missing the point of what I’m doing. I downloaded Chrome only to install a mobile OS that protects my security. Once the web installation was done, Chrome was deleted immediately. This was a clear, intentional step.
The fact that some folks are threatening me not to use Chrome for this is beyond absurd. It’s like telling me not to withdraw cash from my own bank because the bank might somehow control what I do with that money. That kind of …

Now OpenAI wants to buy Chrome, and Perplexity's CEO admits his new AI-powered browser will track your history to sell you ads. As with DOGE's migration of the government to the cloud, AI is a smokescreen for a wholesale data grab https://

If you want to break up Google, don't force them to sell an indirect-revenue product like Chrome. Force them to break up their advertising monopoly. Make them sell Android or YouTube. Fine them enough money to set up an endowment that can fund Mozilla or Servo or Ladybird to actually compete with Chrome and its family.

Is chrome really faster or is it preloading every single link you can click before even clicking?

My main concern here is how well this “new” spec be integrated? Will Chrome add support? Will Photoshop, GIMP and other tools support it?
Will end users like us use it day to day by replacing PNG or JPG?
Now don’t get me wrong this is a good thing and it comes with good features but remember JPEG-XL? I can’t stop thinking this is a tall order to popularise the newer version.
