I'm not sure who uses sync but yeah that's pretty much handing all your data over willingly

Well, I don't provide any data, everything is encrypted end2end, nobody apart from me has access to them, especially Vivaldi. What's more, if I lose my Sync password, no one can recover the data, the price for privacy. But sync allows me not only to synchronize my data with my mobile or another PC where I have Vivaldi, it is also a Backup that allows me to recover all my settings, bookmarks, passwords, notes, etc. when i change the pc. I just have to install Vivaldi, enter my account and in seconds I have the browser back with all the data and settings as on the old PC. This is what the syncfunction is for.
