Actually, Vivaldi can do that itself.  I rarely use that feature, 
although I tried it out just yesterday.  When I want to avoid image 
downloads, I usually use links, which can't display images.

Thanks to all of you who provided suggestions to me.  I wasn't ranting 
about dial-up speeds, but providing my experience as to what browsers 
are the fastest.  Dial-up just happens to magnify the differences in 
speed of display so that they're noticeable without running fancy tests.
