Am liking Vivaldi, but along with WereCat, I have no use for it's email section.

Am concerned that when Google does it's thing, Vivaldi will break. Is there any danger of that happening?

Assuming manifest v3, it shouldn't break. However, some extensions will stop working. Vivaldi doesn’t have its own extension repository so they will be phased out there just like in Chrome.

*its email and its thing

On mobile and it auto corrects.

I'm so sorry that I spoiled your day because of my slack approach to social media. I'll give myself one hundred lashes with a herring.

Goodbye!

As far as I know Vivaldi is quite prepared to get things working as much as possible with Manifest V3 and putting a lot of work in their own adblocker as well because of it.

There is a version of UBlock Origin that works with V3 but it is limited compared to normal one, will see how it goes but for now I think they can delay with the V3 update for some time.
