@Vivaldi Yet another release day. Well done! 🥳🎈🥂🍾🎉🎊

I have been building browsers for 30 years now. First Opera and now Vivaldi. My estimate is that more than 1 billion have used one of my browsers or both. Have you?

Feel free to share your story!

@nick @jon Haha, me too. 😅🙈

@ramon @WildEnte @nick @jon

The first time I came into contact with Opera was with version 5, if I remember correctly. 🤔
It's been a while. I can still remember the advertising banner in the browser. Those were the days... 😅

Love working with tabs? Then you’ll love this: a Memory Saver that automatically puts your inactive tabs to sleep, so you can experience faster and smoother browsing!⚡

Our built-in Feed Reader now lets you follow feeds on sites like Reddit and GitHub. You can now curate your very own news feed with your preferred content. 📰

There’s more: a new option to create Workspaces with fewer clicks, export of passwords and feeds, and a window split screen view for apps on Mac.

Read on to know more, and upgrade your browser to its latest version👇

@Vivaldi @jon @ruario
Is it really a good idea to let the user control the browser's memory usage?
I doubt it. 🤔
What do you think?

@jon @Vivaldi @ruario

And I really like this attitude. :tony_happy:
Nevertheless, I would personally let the browser or the operating system decide on memory consumption. In my opinion, unused memory is wasted memory.
With other memory-intensive applications, such as video games, you don't limit the memory either and nobody would think of doing this. I find it strange that people want to do this so much with browsers.

HalleAndert,
@HalleAndert@vivaldi.net avatar

@jon @Vivaldi @ruario

I agree with you. Even in the good old days of Opera, users were given a lot of control over their browser and Vivaldi follows this philosophy consistently.
That's what users love about Vivaldi.

Thank you for your opinion. :tony_happy:

I'm working on the @loops Camera

The challenge is to optimize the video as much as possible (on device) before upload to reduce load on the backend.

A 15s video (with audio) is just under 800kb at 480p30 using h265, not bad 😎

@dansup @loops Why not encode with AV1?

@Vivaldi I like the pin tab feature. Can we expect it to come for Android as well? :tony_normal:

We will do almost anything to entice you to try out @Vivaldi. We have:

  • Built the most powerful browser around with tab stacks, tab tiles, web panels, page capture, sync, and a lot more.
  • Made it easy to personalize, with custom keyboard shortcuts, custom mouse gestures, custom themes and a lot more.
  • Included a powerful mail client, calendar and feed reader in the desktop browser.
  • Built in a tracker and ad-blocker, for better privacy.
  • Made it available on most all platforms, including cars.

We will continue to try to win you over. How about giving us a try? If you are already using us, thanks!

@jon @Vivaldi I've been using since TP1 and I've never looked back. It is by far the best on and .

I'm so thankful that you offer such a great tool that makes my life so much easier - especially at work. I sort project types into and project related things into tab stacks.

I also don't want to miss the mouse gestures anymore. The built-in client and help me stay perfectly organized. :tony_wee: :vivaldi_red:

Does anyone have a reliable market share data for browsers?

StatCounter is a terrible site.

Would be interested in numbers for desktop, mobile and combined.

Just a note that @Vivaldi will not show up in the stats as we have to hide our identity to be able to use certain Google and Microsoft services.

If you have access to some major site data, please share.

HalleAndert,
@HalleAndert@vivaldi.net avatar

@jon @Vivaldi It is not technically possible to determine reliable figures. It is possible to determine the browsers used per website, but even that is not always reliable. I think that the user numbers are published by the browser manufacturers on the basis of telemetry data.

Some of you were often running into the character limitation for posts here on Vivaldi Social, so we have decided to increase it.

Perks of hosting our own instance! :tony_normal:

Some suggested to get 1000 or 1500 characters, but instead we have chosen...a different number. 😎

Enjoy!

@Vivaldi So nerdy. I love it. :tony_wee:

Vivaldi, to Shortcuts
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

Enjoy a faster Vivaldi after a massive #code refactoring 🎉

Our new version on #desktop is now faster, especially when you open a new window⚡️

By rendering browser windows through React portals, we’ve reduced #memory usage, and significantly improved overall #performance.

Whether you use #Shortcuts, Menus, or Quick Commands, the portal-aware functionality ensures a noticeable increase in #speed when opening a new window 🏃

This is a pretty clever way to use tab tiling in @Vivaldi and a great workaround to get a -like experience. :tony_wee:

You can now connect your Pixelfed account to Flipboard!

Read how you can get @pixelfed photos in a beautiful, flippable format on your mobile device.

@Flipboard @pixelfed

Flipboard doesn't seem to be very privacy-friendly. 11 trackers are too many, in my humble opinion. Profiling users based on their usage behavior and then selling that data to advertising companies is not an acceptable business model.

I dedicate the new v0.11.6 @pixelfed release to my cousin who passed earlier today.

This doesn't feel real, I'll never forget the good old days all the crazy shit we used to get into.

May we meet again ❤️
