thanks, you found the statement that i was unsuccessfully searching for.
what is disappointing is, that there is no explanation as to why.
one redditor claims to understand why vivaldi is doing that, but frankly, i don't.
if the UI source is public anyways, why not put it under a FOSS license? what do they have to gain from not making it open? and while they say i may read the source to audit it, why should i bother if i can't use the source and work with it? i am not going to audit closed source unless i am paid for doing so.
