A rundown of new features in development for Firefox, including visual image search, more sponsored results in the URL bar, and (of course) more AI integration.
Vivaldi is probably the only Chromium based browser I would consider. It is my alternative when I am not using Firefox. Yeah it is pretty good.
I will say, like I mentioned about Firefox, if you scroll down in the comments you will find people saying Vivaldi will fade to obscurity without implementing some kind of AI.
Frankly I appreciate Vivaldi’s stance: it isn’t ready yet, too many issues and problems to add agents into our ecosystem.
By the way Vivaldi is like a swiss knife: you can take notes, email, calendar, tasks, so much stuff! On the other hand it often chokes on updates and the sync is less then perfect.
The reason I didn’t mention the (synced, hierarchical, markdown) notes, mail, RSS feed, calendar, pomodoro timer, read later feature, in-browser tilling window manager, etc (probably forgot something)
And if you count things connected to the vivaldi.net account:
Email address, Blogg platform, forum, (sync), and social media platform (Mastodon instance),
Whatever https://onlyfjords.com/ is
Again, I might have missed something
Is:
0. I didn’t know that you had used it before, didn’t want to “scare” you with “too many features”
my message was exactly the amount of characters allowed in a Mastodon post
People coming from ff today probably just want a browser, not half an operating system (Emacs reference) and you don’t have to even turn on most of those features (I don’t even use all of them)
⚠️Rambling tangent ahead ️⚠️
Come to think of it, if I were only able to have 2 graphical programs installed on my computer, it would be Emacs and Vivaldi
Ofcourse I’m not counting the x11 server and a minimal Window-manager, but those aren’t really graphical programs are they
And even though the features overlap between the 2(Vivaldi notes, Emacs org-mode, and so on), I still dare put Vivaldi on that high of a pedestal, it’s just that good
