I love the Notes feature in #Vivaldi. Seriously, I use it all the time. Sometimes I just add quick notes in a panel. Sometimes I tile a full tab with another page so it's more of a full sized document. When I change computers or even fire up @Vivaldi on my phone, my notes are there. I can do formatting and even embed images. Seriously, it's hard to overstate how useful this feature is to me.
@Dricc Yea, mobile #Vivaldi isn't as full featured as its desktop version is, and there are quite a few features regarding Notes that I'd love to see go mobile. Widgets and Markdown rendering would be top of the list.
Just wanted to bring this to the #blind community's attention: Giving two massive thumbs down to the #Vivaldi browser as the experience for those of us using a #screenreader is #atrocious There's no seperation between the toolbar at the top, the main part of the window & the status bar at the bottom. Trying to use a shortcut to access the toolbar or even the address bar won't work as there's no keyboard shortcuts to do that with. Even accessing the menu is a hit or miss proposition for a screen reader user. Also, don't get me started on the focus jumping that goes on when you're navigating between pages, it's frustrating to say the least. Very #disappointed that accessibility seems to be an afterthought for this browser. #Avoid using this hot mess of a web browser until they bother to fix it, assuming they actually give a shit in the first place. Boost if possible, as I'd like to save others in the blind community from a poor #accessibility experience.
how are you doing? will respond to you tomorrow, if there will be such.
I've been recently trying to be active on all 3 famous Twitter alternatives (Bluesky, Threads, and here). I do check notifications and do reply if needed.
switched from @Waterfox & @Vivaldi 's AppImage versions to .deb, have some issues with syncing, will report tomorrow.
good night, see you next time! I will post probably tomorrow unlike today.

There is a lot of reasons to love Mastodon and the Fediverse. One of them is the lack of algorithmic content. It does take a bit longer to get going and build up content providers, but not having a feed full of crap is all worth it!
It is time to invite more of your friends to join us. Invite to your current server or you can invite them to Vivaldi Social! Help them get going. They will thank you!

So whether you’re hunting for real eggs with family or hunting for clues in our virtual egg hunt with us, let’s celebrate the joy and wonder of Easter together.
Okay, this getting frustrating. I'm on the Vivaldi Social instance but when I use the instance in the Vivaldi browser, if the instance sits idle for a few hours, it locks up and then crashes the browser. It can stay idle all day in Firefox and works fine when I come back to it. And again, like a few times in the past, I can no longer see Vivaldi (or tag them) here on Mastodon. I can see others on the instance just fine. I can't even reach out to them about the issue. This is why I've tried other instances in the past but moving to a new instance just pisses people off. Trust me, I've receive a few unpleasant messages about the move and then requesting a new follow.
@cmccullough Strange. I use #Vivaldi for everything, including having Mastodon in an open tab 24/7/365. It doesn't lock or crash the browser. I'm tagging @Vivaldi here in this message. Maybe they've got some silver bullet for you?
Vivaldi 6.6 brought you the opportunity to personalize your Start Page with Custom Wallpapers on Android. ✨
Tap on the Vivaldi menu button, go to Settings, Start Page Wallpaper, and select one of our preloaded wallpapers, or add your own image from your photo gallery. 🤩
Have you tried it yet? Show us what it looks like! 👇🏻
@vivaldi Sadly as much as my move from the desktop version of #Chrome to #Vivaldi have been a resounding success, the same cannot be said for Vivaldi mobile.
Sync works really well but unfortunately it renders a lot of pages innacurately in both mobile and desktop modes. I'm on the latest Samsung flip, running the latest update. It's unusable for a lot of sites which means I'll have to find a different daily driver on mobile.
The status bar in @Vivaldi is a treasure trove. Here are a few things you should have a look at!
The page capture function is very useful. You can capture any part of Vivaldi or you can capture the whole page. I use this a lot.
The image and animation toggle allows you to turn off image loading and reduce animations.
The page tiling button is for tiling pages. The easiest is to start with a tab stack and then tile it.
The page actions button lists a set of page actions you can use to change how the page looks. Examples include various filters and transformations.
The zoom function is easily accessible in Vivaldi and unlike other browsers, we zoom the current tab by default, instead of the domain, meaning it is easy to change the zoom on all pages in a tab for a while.
The clock is useful for seeing the time, but it also has a nice timer.
This is all in the right corner. In the left corner you find the pause button...
It always gives us immense joy to know how each of you use the Vivaldi browser, what you think of it, and how we can make it better for you.
We’re eager to know how you personalize Vivaldi to suit your needs with custom themes, tab management hacks, and everything that makes the browser uniquely yours.
Nick Zorn, who’s tried many browsers, shares how our browser in particular has helped boost his productivity drastically.👇
Since last night I'm giving #vivaldi browser a try. So far great experience, uses much less memory than FF, integrated RSS reader, vertial tabs by default and side panels are a real plus.
Is it still true that Vivaldi is owned by their employees?
Ok finally off chrome and gone to Vivaldi. Have also gone to duck duck go as my search engine.
Decrapification step one completed.
It's only been one work day but delighted with Vivaldi and duck go is capable.
Unfortunately cannot decouple from Microsoft for mail, collab, etc. We need to support clients and unfortunately have to eat the same dogfood. #Vivaldi
Hab mir ein gebrauchtes Dell-Notebook von 2017 zugelegt, um damit zu "spielen".
Erst mal Windows zerstört, indem ich #InstantOS installiert habe, basiert auf #Arch.
Einfach, weil das Bedienkonzept so ganz anders ist und ich damit lernen will :)
Will aber auch noch weitere Distributionen drauf installieren.
Ziel soll dann sein, dass ich das MacBookPro wieder abstoße (das ich mir zugelegt hatte, weil ich darüber elektronische Musik machen wollte, wozu ich aber dann doch nicht so die Muse hatte - hm, vielleicht mal nochmal angehen, bevor ich es wegtue ...).
