European iPhone owners are being shown a new pop-up screen listing alternatives to the Safari browser. The developers of the browsers shown on that screen are torn about the user experience.

          Under the hood, the engine is the exact same engine that powers Chrome. They didn’t fork it, it’s Chromium.

            Chromium isn’t proprietary, it’s open source.

              Yeah, Chromium is not proprietary. It is a free and open-source software project developed and maintained by Google.

              But vivaldi is absolutely proprietary as it’s not open-source.

      Because Vivaldi is a closed source web browser.
