I wish I could give you better answers, but I don't even understand some of the questions or terms like cross-tracked. I can only say that from one workspace that contains a Vivaldi instance to another that contains a different Vivaldi instance, I've never seen any interference from one to the other.

I do believe that the settings are common, but I've never researched that.

To the best of my knowledge any Browser shares cookies regardless of whether you have one instance or multiple instances of it open.

brent if you wanted to use Vivaldi to have different sets of Cookies you could do that. You would use their Profile Management options to create a new User Profile. This functions very much like Chrome's multi-user profiles but from what I know Vivaldi developed their profiles and sync separately from Chrom/ium. They have a strong privacy stance and I would think this would be the way to go.

      jrsilvey hey have a long, long history of security breaches.

      As the Forbes article points out, "One security expert told Ars Technica that he’s so confident in LastPass’ hashing that he doesn’t even feel compelled to change his master password." Neither do I.

      These "security breaches" sound more like attempts, not successful attacks.

        jrsilvey yes, Opera was split and the consumer facing side was bought by a Chinese consortium, but the company is still located in Norway. As such, it has to comply with Norwegian laws which are quite strict.

        If you're on the internet, someone somewhere is scraping your data and using it for profit or nefarious reasons. It's all about how much you're personally comfortable with giving up.

          lumi yeah palemoon is a good browser,but sadly😔 it is not very well recieved among todays users. some days ago my younger brother saw me using palemoon and he asked me why i use such an "outdated browser"
          i told him it was the latest version but he just went away laughing.

              [deleted] having tried to use Pale Moon in the past, i know that it tends to lag behind standards, especially when it comes to multimedia. The developers and community are also pretty toxic when it comes to pushing their ideologies :/

              It's a nice concept, but the execution is lacking, imo.

                I really like Vivaldi, but font density is thin in Chromium-based browsers, so I keep using FireFox for most everything because the text appears similar to all of the other software that I use.

                GSingh1994 Yeah it's a pity that Mozilla discontinued SSB support in Firefox.

                  GSingh1994 Google chrome because Firefox doesn't support PWA

                  I use Vivaldi but I find the PWA implementation in browsers overall to be lacking.

                  I use a program called WebCatalog. It turns any website into a functional desktop client. It integrates certain extensions (like DarkReader) into the apps that you can use to manipulate the look and feel.
                  The free version allows you to make two free apps from sites. The premium version allows unlimited apps to be made. I have something like 50 or 60 apps and I use them in some combination every day.

                  The only downside is a lack of integrated password manager.

                      I use Firefox with a bunch of add ons. Part of it is just because I am an old geezer and I have been using Firefox since about version 1.5 if I remember correctly.

                        Mostly it is Firefox, but now trying Brave. Need lighter one, also available on Linux and Android

                          DanFromWinterpeg I was using it when it was called Phoenix but they had to change the name because of the Phoenix BIOS manufacturer... it then became Firebird but then again they had to change the name because Firebird is the name of a database... it then becomes Firefox and was released in v1.0 if I recall correctly.

                          Thunderbird didn't had to change its name otherwise we'd have got Thunderfox I guess 😅

                              kyrios Which is odd since Thunderbird in the USA has a 100 year history of making Americans cheap, rot-gut wine: it's synonymous with being down and out and the kind of vintage best drank on a park bench at 7am (I've been told😉).
                              Maybe the company was too wasted to sue Mozilla?

                                  EbonJaeger The TBird wine company has really let some opportunities go, haven't they? 😄

                                    Vivaldi and use Page Actions <> Invert for night and Sepia to break up daytime reading. Best part is tab specific. 🙂
