Gambling companies prey on teenagers with disgusting tactics. They are just as devoid of human decency.
Vivaldi has included split view for years (called tiles). You can also right click a link and choose open in follower tab. This lets all links clicked in one tile open in another tile. I use this regularly on HN.

Of course they have a choice. Firefox started going downhill IMO because they kept copying Chrome. Vivaldi decided not to include AI until a good use case was found for it. This announcement was met with a lot of positivity.
This confused me as well. You are supposed to enter the number of seconds way below.
