My main browser is Librewolf but I keep a chromium browser just in case. Previously used brave but their flatpak is shit. Ungoogled chromium seems ok but it looks like they don’t change much from upstream chromium. Any good chromium browsers which harden their browsers like librewolf does for more privacy?
“Note that, of the three layers above, only the UI layer is closed-source. Roughly 92% of the browser’s code is open source coming from Chromium, 3% is open source coming from us, which leaves only 5% for our UI closed-source code.”
Straight from the horses mouth. So 92% of it is the same as every other chromium browser. 3% is their oss code and 5% is closed source. That 5% more than actual open source browsers.
Which means the final product is closed source.
Okey, whatever, let it be closed source lol. BTW Vivaldi was set as default in Manjaro Linux, with UI changed, that is a work between both Vivaldi and Manjaro. I really doubt they would use proprietary software lol. That 8% (100-92) is bloatware they did not used at all? Once again their 5%? UI is just not under FOSS license, they do not allow modifying it without permussion. But if you like to think other way… Yeah OK, why not.
Excuse me? I switched to Manjaro with Xfce about 3 months ago, and if I wasn’t high at the time and remember everything correctly, the default web browser was simply absent. Which is an excellent choice, in my opinion.
I did not used Manjaro or Vivaldi, but: https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-is-the-default-browser-on-manjaro-linux/
So, it’s default for Cinnamon distribution. That’s like saying Amazon AppStore is default for Android just because some manufacturers install it by default. Consider reading the article before quoting it, please.
That is not the same. I say different thing. Read above. About Vivaldi closed source. The sources are here https://vivaldi.com/source/ anyway. Lets try to say it is open source, but not FOSS. So people are wrong saying it is proprietary. It is not.
I don’t care about that, you said:
And it’s not true.
It was set as default for Cinnamon distribution, which is not even maintained by Manjaro developers, it’s a community managed distribution.
Well yes. I agree. I still do not care about both products, so yeah, whatever.
Wow, you’re an idiot.
edit : and that’s coming from spez so…
How smart 🤣
