    Chromium isn’t Chrome, Chromium is OpenSource forked by a lot of Browsers as engine, also Chrome and Edge, both are with a thick closed source layer with all kind of tracking scripts. It’s not the same. The protected part of Vivaldi are exclusive of the special UI it has, different from all other browsers, its open for audit. Vivaldi, more than a simple browser is an online suite with a lot of tools which no other has and the biggest setting page of all browsers out there, where you can adjust all aspects of the Browser and its privacy. Nothing to do with Chrome.

      read your own last comment, you yourself linked chromium part of vivaldi, the same part used by google chrome

      you may not like it but vivaldi falls extremely close to google chrome, open source wise at least
