Vivaldi:: System requirements. On Windows, Vivaldi can be installed on Windows 10 and newer versions. On Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, Vivaldi 5.6 is the last supported version.
Vivaldi 5.6 is Chromium 109-based and will never be updated further to Chromium 110+ on Windows 7, see my last post on page 6 https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/browser-support-for-windows-7.86383/page-6#post-1779174
@acer-5100 you seem to be angry or something. Chrome is not my beloved browser, on the contrary. It is Brave, OK? And let's agree to disagree... I might just build one myself.
Last time I checked my mood wasn't the topic of this thread. So, I replied to your arguments, either reply to my points or just wait patiently for other opinions. The old trick of going personal when in short of arguments is so worn and outdated...
You just seemed aggressive and too argumentative to me, without really making your point. But I guess that's what forums are for, right? Anyway, everything's cool, no worries.
As someone that uses firefox and chrome I don't understand what you mean by "slower". What benchmark are you using to compare the two?
I haven't run specialized benchmarks, but in my case anything that has to do with playing videos is way slower in Firefox than other Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Brave, etc.). In Firefox the video is not as smooth and skipping, especially when I'm not focused on that particular tab. I'm not sure if it has to do with GPU acceleration not working properly in Firefox for some reason. I have to check. Is Firefox playing videos (e.g. YouTube) as smooth as Chrome for you?
I've just installed it. Had to uninstall enterprise chrome (msi version) 1st but everything is working well.
