That sounds strampunk af, I’d get it even if I didn’t need one if it did that!

Okay that makes way more sense then yeah. I don’t know of a single chromium browser that supports extensions on mobile so unsurprising

I’m trying. I’m trying so hard. But it keeps pissing me off because I have to dig through settings to undo changes they made to browser features that are standard across both Firefox and Chrome. It’s free and I’m not tryig to sound entitled but almost every single change they made to Chromium aside from the privacy stuff has me going WHYYYYYY?

The way they handle open in new tab, tlds like.internal, and ctrl+click to complete urls were the worst offenders off the top of my head.

Plus their ad blocker doesn’t even come close to uBlock Lite.

I just want v8 in a hardened vanilla Firefox wrapper that doesn’t go to the extremes that LibreWolf goes) :(

Not sure how Vivaldi uses extensions since you cannot add new ones from the chrome store…

Extensions in Vivaldi come from the Chrome Web Store, not sure what you mean by this

Wdym, they made CoD Black Ops 6 /s

Thank you! Every time a story like this comes up, people seem to wanna pretend managing your own hardware is all sunshine and rainbows. Especially if you want global scale or as little down-time as possible, cloud provider’s your best bet, albeit one where you have less control than you would with your own servers.

Opinion: You should be building on top of open source platforms and tools (Docker, Kubernetes if you need it…granted I’m not an expert in this area) to mitigate some of the vendor-lockin, and take a multi-cloud approach. If you’re mainly hosting on GCP for example, host smaller deployments on AWS, Azure, Cloudflare, or something else as a contingency…eventuality you can also add or just move to your own servers relatively painlessly. Also AGGRESSIVELY backup up your database in multiple places.
