Henry quite recently did an amazing interview with Vivaldi’s CEO and there they’ve discussed some privacy questions regarding the browser, timestamp included. Basically they’re fine and definitely not worse than other browsers in terms of privacy. Well, except for those that really focus on privacy like Brave or LibreWolf and Mullvad/Tor.
Privacytests.org says that stock UC is a biiiiiiit better than stock Vivaldi but not much. I ran a PrivacyTests.org: open-source tests of web browser privacy script in my Vivaldi and it did better than most other stock browsers on Privacytests. I didn’t even try to get into the Chromium equivalent of Firefox’s about:config menu, just fiddled with some settings.
