ok Bluesky people, here´s a challenge for you: 4.5M people have switched to this Norwegian AI-free browser and said "enough is enough" to Big Tech and its user-tracking AI-down-everyone's-throats-malpractices. Can we make it to 5M before 2026 is over? 😌 🙏

Guys, you are jus' Chromium reskin. I ain't buying it.

Chromium is an open-source engine that's highly compatible with web standards. Many in our team built the Presto engine back when they worked at Opera, we know what it takes to build and maintain a browser engine, and trust me: it's not cheap. Using Chromium allows us to perform (1/3)

Building on top of Chromium is not just "a reskin", but you probably already know that. Our UI is unique and developed by us, sure, but so are our features, which are not available on Chromium, such as the adblocker, the Workpaces, two-level tab stacks or infinite tab tiling, to name a few. :) (3/3)

Nobody should use Chromium:it is a google trojan horse.It is also not a question of how many people use chrome,the question is to try and make more people use a non-chrome browser of which there are many ...

except for the fact that we're able to open the horse, look inside and remove what we don't want. It's not easy as it requires maintenance, but it's doable even for a small(ish) team as ours. We've been disabling stuff from Chromium since the very beginning, and a good example is the Gemini code now
