The_Grim_Dreamer comments on So Long Firefox, Hello Vivaldi

Does Vivaldi match Firefox for adblocking ability? That's always been my highest priority when it comes to browsers.

I'm actually trying it out as my daily driver for a week or so trying to answer that exact question. I've got Pihole on my network so it won't be a true test of Vivaldi alone, but I can say with the weaker Manifest V3 version of uBlock and whatever Vivaldi has built in, I've been satisfied. Granted, it's just been a day, but I tried my damnedest to get some YouTube ads to appear with no success.

First you had my curiosity, now you have my attention. Home pi-hole is something I've been meaning to look into.

Vivaldi can still use uBlock Origin(v2). I use that and disable the one built in.
