Vivaldi polishes its browser, adds a dashboard • The Register

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

which is why vivaldi purposefully added a blocker engine into the browser to side-step the extension limitations. It includes some default lists, as well as allows you to add your own with support for ublock, adguard, and ABP syntax and scriptlets. then all you need to do is goto https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets and add whatever offical asset lists you want... is it as good as FF + uBO, no, but it is something.
I found a Vivaldi blog post on this topic from 2022: https://vivaldi.com/blog/manifest-v3-webrequest-and-ad-blockers/
