We added our Vivaldi Social server to the Fediverse on November 15th 2022. We are still, I believe, the only browser company that is fully behind the Fediverse. It is something we are very proud of! The Fediverse is the natural alternative to Big Tech social media, just like, IMHO, Vivaldi is the natural alternative to Big Tech browsers.

@jon Keep up the good work!!

@jon To be clear I use Vivaldi as a secondary browser, but you are not the opposite of big tech, you would need to be a foundation or similar for that. You also would need to be fully open source and community driven, which you are not.

Of the corporate browsers you are the best, but you are still a corporate browser, with corporate goals, and due to your codebase, assisting Google and Microsoft's goals to capture the web via Chromium.

@jon a bit off topic, but there's apparently some weird interaction between blog federation, quote toots and some Mastodon version: the blog post QTed in your post appears as “removed by its author” even though I can actually load it in my instance and it shows up properly quoted on your instance (see attached screenshot).
