I know a lot of you use @Vivaldi and would like to help us grow.

Athos

@jon @Vivaldi does that mean that whatever ways Vivaldi use to fund itself are not enough? or just because people asked?

@jon @Vivaldi Annoyed that you stopped supporting Vivaldi on Win7, but yeah, I do tell ppl to use.

@athos @Vivaldi

People have been asking, but we are not yet profitable, so you can support us financially in the following ways:

1. Use the search engines we provide, in particular Startpage, DDG, Ecosia and Qwant.

2. Use the included bookmarks and direct match.

3. Donate.

We did not have much choice. We are built on Chromium and when Chromium stopped supporting Win 7, we really could not continue on our own.

@jon @athos @[email protected] what is the plan towards profitability? I confess not to have heard of @vivaldi yet. Sounds nice and a cool team! Company owned all is great. But you need money sooner or later. As an alternative to Firefox, I'll recommend from now on.

Thanks. You can read the details of that here:

Some browsers use your data in ad networks, push promoted content or use other invasive methods to fund their development. We don’t.

@jon @Vivaldi I have one question if you purchase anything from the merch store is that going in as a donation to because i have bought a shirt and want to get a few more things i just want to know if this helps to.

@Frontierman50 @Vivaldi

Thanks for supporting us. Most of the payment for merch goes to pay for the merch. Not much comes to us for that, but we are clearly very happy that you use our merch!

Cuando #Vivaldi sea 100% #opensource lo recomendare con mucha fuerza.
Mientras tanto seguiré esperando.

I installed Vivaldi on all of our servers as part of the local utilities. Its better than the pre installed Edge. My colleagues seem to like. However on my personal laptop i switched back to Firefox from Vivaldi as I seemed have better control of plugins and unwanted garbage in web pages.

I might give it another whirl but Im am concerned about how the changes to Chromium might affect Vivaldi.
