Vivaldi is filled with bloat and feature creep to the brim now. They abandoned that "lightweight" philosophy ages ago.

Only if you want it (yes you still need to download a larger package).

Vivaldi is created by the former creator of Opera, with sort of the same goals it used to have: care for the power user. They are up for adding any customization and power user tool if people want it. It has never tried to be as lightweight as possible. Instead, it should be one of the most customizable and feature rich browsers out there.

It’s great, as I can add and remove features so it’s tailored to me.
