Firefox because it works

#VivaldiBrowser because it looks nice & Linux is better for web browsing

@agent_nycto

Yes, it’s an ad. Try #VivaldiBrowser in Linux.

In an older OS, use #Firefox.

This is not a technical discussion. We can’t use modern Chromium including #VivaldiBrowser in out-dated OS while Firefox still works.

Other compatibility discrepancies will be minor.

An OS becomes obsolete when you can’t update browsers in spite of ‘official’ support (which typically ends earlier).

All Chromium-based browsers are made obsolete at the same time.

If you can still use Firefox, your old OS still has life.

@splendoruranium

Most browsers are built upon open-source #Chromium which is made obsolete while #Firefox still updates.

Epic, Edge, Chrome, Brave, Opera, #Vivaldi, Iron, etc. They’re all Chromium.

@Professorozone

My suggestion is every browser is a compromise, so for all but the lightest users, we need more than one. #Firefox is unique not being Chromium.

Because Firefox is not Chromium, I can use it on old computers made obsolete. Eg:

Win 7 ends at Chrome 109.
Ubuntu 16 ends at Chrome 106.

(Chromium version = Chrome version)

My Firefox is new if not the latest in those OS.
