Opera ships Aria as a bundled, hosted AI sidebar. Maho ships an agentic panel with BYOK. The comparison is less about features than about defaults.
Safari is good. Safari is the default. Those two facts are the entire reason most Mac users never try anything else. This post is for the rest.
Two macOS-native browsers built for keyboard-first power users. SigmaOS picked one ceiling. Maho picked another. Here is where they diverge.
Vivaldi was the first browser that respected the power user. Maho is built for a different decade and a different shape of power. Both are still right.
