    Yep. I daily drive Vivaldi on both macOS and Android.

    I do use UBO, but they also have a builtin ad blocker if you want to use that instead.

    The settings page is very extensive. Tons of customization. True to the Opera legacy!

      That’s amazing, I didn’t know you could do that. I’ve been using Vivaldi since the alpha days and I had no clue you could drag the extensions there.
