What's good about Vivaldi? Just yet another proprietary browser, but such a dedicated community
Where to start? Vivaldi is not proprietary, it's Chromium based. It's made in Europe which is a sell for me as a European. It uses a lot of the good stuff Opera used to have as a mobile browser way before smartphones. It can sync with your desktop so any tabs you have open on your phone you can instantly view on your desktop. The password manager is really good. It has a lot of customization options so you can have it look exactly the way you want. Despite all this it's still quick, one of the fastest browsers out there. The built-in adblocker is about as good as Brave's. You can install desktop extensions on the Android version. It has built-in mail and calendar clients. It's free.
Lol. MacOS is based on BSD and Mach which are open source, but MacOS is still proprietary. Any normal modern browser syncs anything between devices and has a builtin password manager (which supports sync as well). Even stock Firefox is customizable with countless themes and vertical tabs and has a decent adblocker. No idea why you need calendar in a browser though.
And, finally, a quote from Vivaldi's EULA, showing its high attitude to being FOSS:
So your point is that it's not open source? You never said that was any requirement. You wanted a chromium based android browser, I told you I use Vivaldi. Clearly you don't want Vivaldi, that's fine.
You're right, I forgot to specify this
