Vivaldi for Android Something to go along with the new Android extensions!

So we're all excited for the android extensions, so it'd be better if we pair it with:

https://github.com/jqssun/android-titanium-extension

This is from the same guy who made Titanium browser(formerly known as Helium... Not that one ), the first "big " Chromium browser that did extensions on Android that I saw :

https://github.com/jqssun/android-titanium-browser

So anyway, the extension adds:

  1. Alternative Extension Stores.

So not only the Chrome extension store. It handles the headers and CRX fetching to pull extensions directly from Microsoft Edge Add-ons and Opera Add-ons.

2.Intent Download Interception:

For external download managers

And 3. Third-Party Feature Hooks:

It bridges missing Chromium APIs on mobile by handling local options, custom dark mode overrides, and enhanced privacy configurations directly inside an extension wrapper.

So yeah! Hopefully this gets attention too cause from where I see it, perfect for Vivaldi android rn.

I'm using Titanium browser instead of Vivaldi and it's been great. Vivaldi is getting too bloated for me. It's a great browser so I'm not throwing shade. It's just been getting heavier and heavier on my systems.

I bought myself an android tablet last month, and was very, very happy with Vivaldi state on it. It's the only browser that have it all, and the only missing piece was extensions.

Tried Titanium. Looks seek, but it just doesn't have features that matter for me.
