vivaldi is created by the same people as opera. and it gets discussed on /g/ from time to time

Chromium based, with GUI mods. Basicly all the same.

don't know about edge base (new from scratch, ie base?)
Opera is dead

basicly we have 3-4 major browsers.
Also

>>52508000
Because the switch is being made.

Soon the number will dwindle.

Why is IE still considered a major browser when it's basically being slowly phased out by Edge?
>>
Aren't IE and Edge the same?
>>
>>52508288
Because it still has a significant market share.

>>52508294
IE and Edge are completely different.
>>
>>52508000
I dont understand how anyone can use Edge I tryed it for a month and its the worst experience I have ever had woth a browser

Where is Chromium?
Chromium and Firefox are relatively free of botnet while the others in the list are going to sell all your info.

>>52508057

Doesn't make it major. Its not even a release.

Vivaldi is Chrome with more bloat.
Edge is IE, rewritten and without legacy code.
IE is deprecated.

Vivaldi definitely isn't a major browser.

I'm skeptical about even calling opera or edge major browsers.

Wrong OP, it's Chrome, Firechrome, Chropera, other Chrome forks, IE is dead and who cares about Safari.
>>
>>52508000
>>Now: Chrome, IE, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Vivaldi, Edge
-Chrome is botnet, hungry hungry hippo botnet made by a advertising agency.
-IE is dead, abandoned by Microsoft.
-Firefox is dead, crushed under weight of Mozilla employees.
-Safari, eating shit from your own hands.
-Opera is dead, its chrome.
-Vivaldi, I have no fucking clue. Does anyone actually use this shit?
-Edge is irrelevant. Windows 10, really? Are you fucking stupid? It annoying enough keeping 8.1 clean, so fuck them.
-Chromium is probably botnet too, plus made by a advertising company.

>>52510863
If you really don't know the differences between something as simple as Edge and Explorer, I hope you don't go around posting your opinions.

To spoonfeed, without implying one way or another if it's good or not, they redesigned the core to support windows 10 features and HTML 5, while also finally dropping activeX which isn't really needed after netscape, among other things.

>>52511030
OP here. I use Internet Explorer not Vivaldi you dumb fuck. Vivaldi is at least significant enough now.

And >>52510829 , Maybe I need to add Yandex also.
>>
>>52511020
No. Edge uses EdgeHTML, a fork of Trident(IE).
>>
>>52511125

you should try icecat:

nobody uses safari, opera or vivaldi. also, they're basically just reskins anyway.

there's IE (which includes edge), firefox and chrome. that's it.
>>
>>52510199
>Opera is dead, its chrome.
except without botnet
your criticisms are more meme than real
>>
Please.

Nobody outside /g/ has heard about opera/vivaldi.

Safari support is required only if your demographic shows strong usage.

You have to support Chrome, Firefox and IE 11. Maybe Edge if you are forward-thinking.
>>
>>52510829
this looks like it might be ok. What's it based off of?
>>

Waterfox is my favorite FF fork for now.

Speaking of browsers, I still use chrome on my pc and phone but I wouldn't mind a better browser, but at the same time all my accounts and bookmarks are linked in chrome. Is there anything that I can move that all to and is as linked between devices
>>
>>52511988
It's pretty comfy, yes. I have a shit computer and it's the most stable browser I've ever used.
>>
>>52512017
Keep in mind I need adblock, the reason I haven't switched
>>
>>52512024
really? because it used to crash all the fucking time for me
I use firefox beta now
>>
>>52512017
>>52512036
you for real? Opera and Firefox both offer sync functionality
I prefer firefox because of extension support on mobile and the best desktop extension support, period. Ironically I had to ditch chrome BECAUSE there is no adblock on android
my firefox android runs ublock and ghostery
>>
>>52512102
I shit you not, I don't think it crashed ever for me. That was the case for me with all the firefox releases.
>>
>>52512102
Works perfectly fine here.
>>
>>52512126
Alright I'm giving it a shot
>>
Web devs, when do we ignore IE?
>>
>>52508000
We don't.

Safari and Edge never were major browsers to begin with and can be neglected when developing sexy webb epps.

I doubt ms will die, but if ie11 goes away, you can literally develop for chrome and it will work on edge.
>>
>>52517894
IE11 will not go away earlier than 2023, when extended support for windows 8.1 ends

It's going to become irrelevant far earlier.

Vivaldi is not a major browser. Go shill somewhere else.

I would hardly call shills samefagging their own spam threads "discussion."

tfw ABP in IE
you furfags and jewgle supporters have no idea how comfy this is

Mate IE and Edge are for retards, no one but them uses them. And new Opera is basically a reskined Chrome.
>>
>>52518850
Forgot about Safari.
>major
Yeah right. Basically there are only 3 major/different browsers: Chrome and its clones, IE and Edge, and Firefox.
