Unfortunately I got error during install:
" ...W: GPG error: http://repo.vivaldi.com/stable/deb stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 9658E8044A3AA3D6
E: The repository 'http://repo.vivaldi.com/stable/deb stable Release' is not signed. ..."

Any idea how to fix this?
See section 5.2.1 of the manual.

Unfortunately that doesn't help much here.
I try to install Vivaldi via MX Package Manager "Popular Applications"
Tryping to use "MX Fix GPG Keys" here does show a terminal windows with obviously a stuck script:

Code: Select all

Checking deb.debian.org_debian_dists_buster-updates_InRelease
Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.8Xuf3pVxtk/gpg.1.sh --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key 16E90B3FDF65EDE3 0146DC6D4A0B2914
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No data

For me, It has a lot of features built-in so you need less extensions, unlike Firefox which is only good once you have all the extensions.
I've never used firefox in it's stock configuration.
