I gave the browser a spin and looks quite nice. Once they got extension support and an ad-blocker available, I might use it on a daily basis...
Isn't Opera (and presumably this new Vivaldi too) a proxying browser? That is, it routes all traffic through Opera's own proxies? If so, it is a massive privacy leak and I wouldn't go anywhere near it. Cheers Michael.
