        @zachleat @tomw I've used it, but only on my work machine (which is a Mac) and only because it was a cute skin that differentiated it from all yhe other worky browser windows I have open.

I’m considering giving Vivaldi a try before returning to Firefox. The UI change of pace was stimulating.

  @tylersticka @zachleat Yeah, Vivaldi looks real tempting right now.
  I'm curious why none of the alt browsers use gecko under the hood? But I imagine the answer is depressingly "websites are built for chrome" 😞

    @mia @zachleat Probably! 😬
    (Not the ones @cloudfour and @OddBird make, though! Hooray for user choice! 🙂)
