I'm no expert and I haven't used Brave but speaking as a loyal Firefox user for years compared to Firefox, Chrome and Edge it's my favorite browser now by far. It's a very powerful and secure browser and by far the most customizable if your into that. It blocks all ads by default with no ad blocking extension needed. The huge settings menu takes a little getting use to but once you find your way around and get use to it, it's fine. I love the little expandable sidebar it has to access certain customizable functions.

Hi @Alexey2912!

As @trevo said, you can sync your browser data across all desktop OS' (Windows, macOS and Linux) and Android devices as well (even in Android Automotive OS).

Secondly, faster in what way? Does it matter whether a page loads a nanosecond faster or is it important that the browser helps to make your workflow faster. Former should be on par with other Chromium browser. With latter, with the abundance of features and options Vivaldi has, once you've set up the browser according to your preferences and gotten used to it, your workflow will definitely have improved and you can get stuff done faster.

As for security. All security issues always get highest priority and security fixes from Chromium are released ASAP. @FrancoDT mentioned a huge settings menu. That's true. It includes a section for many privacy and security settings as well.

If you have any other questions about Vivaldi, I'll gladly answer them. :-)

Thanks @Jane . I would try it both on my laptop and Android devices.

All the best!
