I think the main criteria of this post's recommendations was "European". I'm guessing GOS doesn't have that geographic requirement.
It's an odd choice to localize privacy recommendations on Vivaldi's part, as opposed to offering the most secure/runner up options.
Wouldn't recommend their phone/OS choices either.
A lot of the elements that come pre-loaded in the homepage/start screen; shortcuts, full suite of sidebar attachments. The OOBE is a lot to take in all at once, and while it is AMAZING to have the customizability, I personally prefer to have a blank canvas to add in the options myself.
New to Vivaldi, not sure if it exists. But it would be nice to be able to save all my settings for UI in a template offline.
What would be the recommendation between XMPP and Matrix protocols? What are your thoughts on the claims that Matrix logs metadata, and how crucial is that for an average user?
Thanks.
