<p>We added our Vivaldi Social server to the Fediverse on November 15th 2022. We are still, I believe, the only browser company that is fully behind the Fediverse. It is something we are very proud of! The Fediverse is the natural alternative to Big Tech social media, just like, IMHO, Vivaldi is the natural alternative to Big Tech browsers.</p><p><a href="/tags/vivaldi/" rel="tag">#Vivaldi</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/mastodon/" rel="tag">#Mastodon</a> <a href="/tags/twitter/" rel="tag">#Twitter</a> <a href="/tags/socialmedia/" rel="tag">#SocialMedia</a> <a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#AI</a> <a href="/tags/meta/" rel="tag">#Meta</a> <a href="/tags/facebook/" rel="tag">#Facebook</a> <a href="/tags/instagram/" rel="tag">#Instagram</a> </p><p><a href="https://vivaldi.com/blog/news/vivaldi-social-a-new-mastodon-instance/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="vivaldi.com/blog/news/vivaldi-social-a-new-mastodon-instance/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">vivaldi.com/blog/news/vivaldi-</span><span class="invisible">social-a-new-mastodon-instance/</span></a></p>
