Powerful. Personal. Private. It’s a web browser. But fun. It comes with a bunch of clever features built in. It’s super flexible and does not track you. Get the Vivaldi browser for desktop, mobile, and your car!

It is rather complicated. 😅 As I've understood it (and I might be wrong), the setting takes into account the available RAM your machine has. Then it also checks how frequently you interact with the tab (e.g. a tab you check once a day should be hibernated a lot sooner than a tab that you check regularly). Also tabs that play audio, update frequently (e.g. mailbox), include forms, etc. are kept active for longer.
So some tabs maybe be hibernated after 10 minutes while others after a few hours.

But we do recommend keeping the Automatic option enabled. :tony_normal:

weirdwriter, to accessibility

Great accessibility start here @Vivaldi but interface elements are still not labeled so screen readers can read them. Moreover, there appears to be no virtual buffer at all when trying to use your browser so I quite literally can't navigate web pages. Any updates after this post? https://vivaldi.com/blog/accessible-web/

Vivaldi,
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@weirdwriter

Just this week we addressed some accessibility issues (also including missing labels and such) on Vivaldi on Android and hope to do the same on desktop (no ETA unfortunately).
It would help us a lot, if you could file a bug report on https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/ with issues that are especially annoying for you, so we could prioritize those.
If you do, please share the bug number(s) you receive in an email, so I can follow up. Thank you!

If you're looking for alternatives to Chrome in terms of which browsers to use on Android, Talk Android has compiled this nifty list of the latest and greatest browsers you can switch to.

✍🏾 The tech writer and journalist, Irene O., talks about how she used our highly customizable Vivaldi browser and its features, like tab stacking, and the built-in Notes and Translator.

📝 It's nice to see writers and journalists alike share their appreciation for Notes, a noteworthy tool built right into the browser. This way, there's no need to switch between apps to jot down quick notes or to add text to an existing note.

📲 It even syncs across devices making it effortless to carry all important notes on your desktop, tablet, and mobile.

Read all about it 👇🏻

Gave Vivaldi another go, for reasons*. Uninstalled < 10 minutes later. Way too much settings, that ultimately don’t allow you to set the things you want. Good luck trying to disable/remove the start page, or paste the exact hex number for your theme and see it applied differently.

*I want some features from Arc (split, pip, command menu), with the minimal ui of Safari. That’s it.

@ovan
We're sorry for the experience you had trying out Vivaldi.
We try to pick good defaults, but since needs and tastes vary, we provide (a lot of) settings for you to customize the browser according to your preferences. Admittedly, it may be a little overwhelming at the beginning, but once you've set things up, the browser will be perfectly tailored to you.

What would you like to see when opening a new tab instead of the Start Page?

I also tested pasting hex values to Theme settings and it worked as expected. Could you describe the issue you encountered?

🚨Reminder to organize those tabs you have strewn all over! 🫣

Simply grab a tab (click and hold) and drop it onto another. Voilà – your tab stack is born.

In case you haven't been using the Vivaldi browser, there are cooler ways to manage your tabs on our browser. Take a look: https://vivaldi.com/features/tab-management/

4 second video of the tab stack feature on the Vivaldi browser. A user demonstrates by dragging and dropping one tab into another.

We can all contribute in someway.

On that note, meet our colleague @Hlini , at our data center in Iceland powered by renewable, hydroelectric energy✨

One way you can contribute is through your choice of search engine on the Vivaldi browser.

@Vivaldi Vivaldi for Android should support these functions.

  1. Import/ export bookmarks
  2. Customized font of our choice
    as the default font of the browser
    to view web contents in correct Myanmar Unicode Rendering
    Our China-ROM mobile phones use NotoSan Myanmar Zawdecode as factory default font. Because of NotoSan Myanmar Zawdecode,non-Unicode font, we need to use that function of Stargon Browser .
  3. Full support for Free Download Manager as External Downloader.
    Currently, Vivaldi Browser doesn't work for this function.

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@thanhtunoo

  1. It's not possible on Android, but if you have a desktop version of Vivaldi, you can use the Sync feature and import/export bookmarks via that.
  2. Please file a bug report for it on https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/ and our devs can check if it can be done.
  3. If you have an external downloader app installed, you should be able to set it to take over downloads in Vivaldi. See https://tips.vivaldi.net/tip-80/.

Hey @Vivaldi team. It would be nice to be able to link other Mastodon instances on the Vivaldi blog instead of being limited to just your instance. 😉

Do you mean the Share > Mastodon menu below blog posts on Vivaldi.net? 🤔 There social.vivaldi.net is just a placeholder and example and the person sharing the post needs to enter their instance's link. It's not limited to Vivaldi Social.

Hello, @Vivaldi
I'm having trouble right now with a lot of tabs popped in the background, even though I'm not operating anything. I think it's probably a synchronization-related problem, since the pages I've viewed in the past are loaded. What should I do?

Vivaldi,
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@kunibiki
I'm glad you're no longer seeing the issue, as I wouldn't have had good suggestions for a fix.
It is possible to use a keyboard shortcut and a mouse gesture to open a new tab in the background, but there's no key combination/gesture set for them by default and I would guess you would've recognized what's happening if you had created a shortcut for that action yourself. But you can still review your keyboard and mouse settings.

But like any great recipe, sometimes the ingredients don't quite blend as intended.

After the release of Vivaldi 6.6 on Android, our efforts to unify menus and toolbars led to unintended consequences.
