Are there sponsored sites on @Vivaldi speed dial now? I have hotels.com and Expedia on mine and I didn’t put them there.

@goombashoes
The browser has always come with partner bookmarks, which we hope you find useful, but have the freedom to replace with your own Speed Dial bookmarks.

Hey @Vivaldi, I don't suppose there's something on the horizon that would let me import a .md file to my Vivaldi notes from a command line? Realizing that's probably pretty niche, but I can think of a LOT that I would do with it.

@mike Nope, nothing like that in the pipeline, AFAIK.
You can create a feature request for it on the Forum, though. If there are plenty of upvotes, we can look into it.

Okay I knew Opera browser was bad but I had no idea how crazy the situation was until reading this.

Earlier this week, I wrote about the best browser you're (maybe) not using, @Vivaldi

https://medium.com/@bluesabre/the-best-browser-youre-not-using-93e4aad58b18

Considering that my followers are mostly Linux, specifically Xfce folks, you'll love all the features and customization options. It also lacks all the AI, crypto, and tracking nonsense you try to avoid.

@bluesabre Thank you for taking the time to do your research and write about why you like using our browser. 🙏

@Vivaldi why can't I haz smooth scrolling (OSX)? 🤔

Vivaldi,
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@miles_leif
AFAICT (and I'm basing it on old information I could find on this topic), it's disabled because on macOS, unlike other platforms, smooth scrolling is enabled regardless of that flag.

Our built-in Calendar tool is like a personal assistant, but less judgy. 😏

Tell us what you like about the Vivaldi Calendar if you use it! 👇🏻

If you’ve been following us, you’ll know that we’re big on the Fediverse.

It was incredibly important for us to create an instance and provide everyone with a social network free of ads and algorithms.

Join us live this Saturday as we talk about why it was important for us to do more than just be around here.

We’ll be joined by @beardedtechguy and @cliffwade from @AllThingsTech, who will also talk about the Fediverse and why it matters to them.

Hey @Vivaldi! Why can't I set my preferred search engine on the Android app? I can add a custom search for desktop. Why not Android?

Not being able to use address bar search on mobile (the way I want) is a big problem for me.

@oh_that_courtney
You can add custom search engines to Vivaldi on Android by adding them on desktop and syncing the devices.

So, I have 2 computers that I use every day. However, I only have a single monitor.

In order to use either one, I have to turn the other off, because of the single monitor issue.

I have tried to "sync" the VIVALDI browser on each computer with one another, but it appears to be an undoable thing. Or, perhaps I am missing something.

This is important because I am trying to use the VIVALDI CALENDAR for appointments. I can enter information into one computer, but it is then not available on the other. This is what I thought using "SYNC" would be useful for.

Is there any way that I can "sync" both VIVALDI browsers (one on each computer) to one another, when one computer is OFF and I am using the other, then shut that one down, fire up the other and then sync that one to the one I just shut down?

Or, must both computers be up and running for them to sync to one another?

TL;DR, I know ... but there is no other way to 'splain!

Thanks for any responses.

Hi @MGBJAY!
Do you use local or online calendars? You'll need to use the latter to be able to access the same events and tasks from multiple devices as local calendars are not synced. You can use any calendar service that supports CalDAV.

Also, as long as syncing has finished before you shut down your computer, you'll be able to sync the data on the other computer while the first one is turned off.

I’m reading an article, and every so often it throws this page.

I’ve checked my WiFi and it’s all good, there is no Geomagnetic activity that could disrupt it, I have a feeling this is a @Vivaldi thing. And I have tested on Firefox with no issues at all. iOS is the OS.

Vivaldi is there anything you can do, or know about. Maybe an issue with the adblock, I’m honestly not sure.

Does it always happen on the same websites or usually on random websites? 🤔

@Vivaldi I noticed a flatpak available on Flathub, but it says it's not from a verified author. Is that actually you guys?

@dmakovec
Yes, the flatpak version of Vivaldi is maintained by us. :tony_wee:
Take a look at this article on https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/11/vivaldi-web-browser-flathub for more info.

@Vivaldi When I wake my MacBook from sleep, keyboard shortcuts in Vivaldi don’t work until I restart the browser. (At least I think it is sleep that is the trigger, but not completely sure there is a correlation between computer sleep and lost shortcuts.)

Vivaldi,
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@anders
Tested it briefly on MacBook Air, but could not reproduce it.
Could you report the issue on https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/ with more details about your environment, so our dev team could take another look.
TIA :tony_normal:

@Vivaldi something I very miss on vivaldi is the ability to sync the panel on the left. The different shortcuts like my ISP mail, FB messenger, whatsapp, etc.
Something that Edge provides.

🦋 If you struggle with ADHD or have your focus constantly ruined by a whirlwind of thoughts, then you probably use productivity tools that can help crush those distractions and give you some peace of mind.

Find out how you can say goodbye to those scattered thoughts by customizing the Vivaldi browser to work for your needs and preferences 👇🏻
