Alright, trying to leave both Chrome and Firefox at the same time is difficult, especially because I always use multiple browsers at the same time (to separate accounts for this or that without having to switch accounts constantly). My current browser number three is Opera and so far, I’m not touching it (we’ll see in the future).
My questions are basically: are LibreWolf and Vivaldi viable replacements as main browsers?
My main concerns are whether LibreWolf is mature enough and if both allow syncing between different devices (as I regularly use three computers).
Any constructive feedback is welcome.
(suggesting me to use that another browser I haven’t mentioning without explaining why in detail is not constructive feedback, thank you)

@DavidBHimself Vivaldi is my daily browser and it is very capable browser. You will be delighted.
Vivaldi does allow sync between different devices. You will need to create an account.
FWIW I am seriously considering shifting my Mastodon identity from my personal instance to their instance.
@adnan@1210.nl Thanks for your feedback. Why do you want to migrate your Mastodon account to their instance, though? My Mastodon account (not this one) is on a solo instance and I can’t imagine moving it back to a bigger instance.
@DavidBHimself
Larger instance means that I can see all the replies in a conversation (thread)
I don’t believe in solo instances for Mastodon. Instances should be shared by friends who know each other in real life. My criteria is that you’ll share an instance w/ a person only if you would invite them into your house. It has been three years, & almost none of my real-life friends have shifted from Twitter to here. Most gave up on social media altogether & only chat in large WhatsApp groups.
@adnan@1210.nl I don’t think that there is a “one size fits all” as far as instances are concerned. Solo instances serve a purpose, small instances with friends too (I’ve been trying to do that too, with little success too), as well as large instances. But after having tried all sizes, I like being in control of what’s going on as much as possible, so being my own admin or know the admin more or less personally.
