Vivaldi

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net

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!

🚨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/

🌎 Earth Day is an important reminder to commit to big or small sustainable practices that can help preserve our planet. 🌱

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.

The Ecosia search engine plants trees in over 35 countries with local organisations.

Is anyone else tired of seeing AI this and AI that everywhere? It seems like a rapid explosion of new products that are jumping on the bandwagon. Aside from the websites and apps, I got an email from Logitech yesterday about their new AI-enabled mouse and keyboard. I can't be the only one who wants less AI, can I? It's going to make me switch to Linux and adjust my tech options.

@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. 😉

@beardedtechguy
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.

@Vivaldi Can you improve your built in adblocker in the near future so that those annoying popups that want me to use their app are no longer displayed? Brave has managed to stop these popups from appearing.

Hi @NewDay14!
Please make a feature request for this on https://forum.vivaldi.net/category/136/mobile-feature-requests. Then others who'd also like to see this implemented can upvote the request, which in turn helps us prioritize our tasks.

@Vivaldi is there any chance this bug will get fixed?

https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/83612/bug-ctrl-tab-does-not-cycle-tabs-in-recent-order/56?page=3

Seems like it is not only me. Trying to ditch hard. Besides the things Arc doe better but I can get around (better "workspace" handling, better pinned tabs handling, better command bar), the broken tab navigation kills me. It feels more like a random tab picker than a tab navigation.

I'm happy to assist with whatever might be needed to get that sorted.

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@dweinand
We've had trouble reproducing it, but I think we've had a small breakthrough recently, so hopefully now it can get fixed.

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

Hi @kunibiki,
Please share more information about the issue. On which platform (desktop, Android, iOS) does it happen? Also, what do you mean by "popped in the background"?

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.

Vivaldi, to tech

Sure, too many choices can be overwhelming. But regardless of the number of options, context is paramount. Context makes decision-making that much easier, especially when the decision has an everyday impact.

And, with the web browser being an integral part of your everyday digital life at work or otherwise, it should be obvious that you're able to make an informed choice and pick from the best options given to you.

❌ However, this isn't the case for most of you.

Our CEO, Jón von Tetzchner @jon shared with Reuters that if you're using an iPhone, you see the list of browser choices only when you select Safari, with no additional information.

"The process is just so convoluted that it's easiest for (users) to select Safari or potentially some other known name." - Jon.

🇪🇺 This has prompted the European Commission to start a non-compliance investigation against Apple, in light of the recently enforced DMA (Digital Markets Act) to investigate whether Apple may be preventing you from truly exercising your choice of services, for example, with their design of the browser Choice Screen.

Vivaldi, to Bulgaria
@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

In response to the European Union's DMA (Digital Market's Act) Apple’s current Choice Screen design is flawed as they look at it very narrowly, per platform and country.

We think priority should be given to cross-platform browsers.

The main browser choices should be visible and we aren't. Quality matters and we should be on the list for all countries.

Find out more about what we think about the current state of affairs with Apple's Browser Choice Screen.

🍕🚀 Your browser experience, just like your favorite pizza, should be fully customizable to suit your tastes. And at Vivaldi, your feedback is the secret sauce that makes it all possible! 🌟

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.

Can you point us to the Forum topic where disabling gestures is discussed? We found some that could be the ones you're thinking of, but we want to be sure.

Regarding passwords. Viewing and copying passwords that you've saved in Vivaldi is not possible, without first entering your devices lock screen PIN, password or pattern.

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net avatar

@far4
Could you make a feature request in the English speaking Mobile Feature Requests category for disabling gestures as well, so everyone could find and upvote it. Thanks!
