Not sure I should celebrate or cry after looking at these privacy stats in my @Vivaldi browser.
Using the ad and tracker blocker since Feb 17th 2022.

@atlemo @Vivaldi Nearly 40% of my blocked trackers were from Microsoft. Unsurprising. I was surprised to see about 12% were from duckduckgo.

@atlemo @Vivaldi Website: We Value Your Privacy! Please allow 647 of our besties to follow you around the web.

@john @atlemo @Vivaldi Expect that to be worse with Manifest V3 rolling next year. I hope Vivaldi has plans to support V2 still.

@atlemo @Vivaldi "My Anti-Missile system shot down 4 nukes! Wohoo... Wait, what?!"

@atlemo @Vivaldi I could live with the ads if they weren't the most prominent "feature" on the site and always on your face plus the creepy spying/tracking. Get rid of trackers and make better ads and i would whitelist more!

@atlemo @Vivaldi
Cry probably. Mine's running since April 14 2022, and just got bit more than 8k Trackerss and ~260 Ads.

On the other perspective, I got ublock origin and no script running, which probably filters out the majority already before vivaldi even sees it...
