Why is Waterfox becoming popular? Who has audited the source code?

I don't know how to answer that! I know nothing about it's popularity or it's auditing. I just chose it because somewhere along the way someone suggested it amd I thought I's try it out. It works good for me, but I'm no guru/geek. I think it's a smaller size of some of the more popular browsers, but I'm not sure. It just seems to work well, so I'm happy with it. Take care!

It's the fastest browser that I have ever used, with consistently fast speed no matter what we do, which includes using VPN services 24 x 7. The available options are the most intense that I've ever seen, it's unbelievably user friendly, configurable, it's available in over 50 languages, and it's built on Opera with the background of Vivaldi also going back to Opera development. The developers of Vivaldi are, in my opinion, very globally & socially conscious, which I also find to be very positive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivaldi_(web_browser)
I know this is an old post, but Vivaldi is not built upon Opera. The developers have an Opera pedigree. I'll be starting a new thread about Vivaldi momentarily.
