@AVincentInSpace @nous I've always disliked the arrogance of the lead Dev & the inexorable incremental usurping of Linux functionality. I'm deeply uncomfortable with so much being absorbed into a big binary black box

@Flaky @halm Vivaldi design is _strongly_ reminiscent of Mozilla SeaMonkey (antecedent Netscape Navigator) with a dose of old Opera.

@mindlight @ShittyBeatlesFCPres When they took away SSB's (aka PWA) in Firefox 86 and utterly refused to reconsider, that was the end for me. Idiots

@Ephera @redcalcium I don't mind them using funds on activism directly related to privacy and an open web but they have been blowing huge amounts on far left political causes unrelated. That's why I ignore donstion requests.

@0xtero @petsoi Firing staff, studiously ignoring _long standing_ complaints by end users and jumping like a meth addict on the latest tech craze whilst continuing to blow the rivers of gold from Google on far left political causes ... the future looks dim.

@Carighan @Kallioapina
I agree that Site Specific Browsers (SSB's) aka Personal Web Apps (PWA's) are much preferred over hunting for binary operating system specific app's.

The removal of this functionality in Firefox 86 was just one of the many decisions that is contributing to Firefox's catastrophic fall in usage.

I believe what the OP is referring to is _installable_ web apps, which brings the worst of both worlds, being both a web page and an operating system specific binary app
