Does Vivaldi not just use the Chrome store for extensions? Also, aren't they losing manifest V2 as soon as it's dropped from Chromium in a few more months?

Not sure how Vivaldi uses extensions since you cannot add new ones from the chrome store, but if that happens we're gonna need to go to Firefox eventually. I currently love Vivaldi due to simplicity and the swipe up to open tabs page. Wish more browsers integrated that or just better & fluid animations

Extensions in Vivaldi come from the Chrome Web Store, not sure what you mean by this

I'm using the mobile app which doesn't let you use extensions from the chrome store, if you guys are talking desktop, I might be wrong.

Okay that makes way more sense then yeah. I don't know of a single chromium browser that supports extensions on mobile so unsurprising
