Hopefully this expands for users outside of the EU.

I use a script to force the use of HD if it is available because I found that Google was forcing YouTube to default to the lowest possible resolution (and this was with all five browsers). If HD is not available, the extension will choose the highest resolution that is available.

@Pesala Vivaldi masquerades as chrome though not firefox so how does that matter?

@gilmarnunes And, please, in international forum: use English language, translate from your language with a translator.

@neonix1, well, but change nothing in the risk to go online with an obsolete OS without security support. It's way better to install a current Linux distro, as OS or in dual boot with Windows XP and use the Windows local, going online with Linux, where you can use better and current browsers. Since 2005, the most PC support 64 bits, even when the software and OS in this years are distributed in 32 bits. It is recommended to check it on your system.

@DoctorG Did you actually read what he wrote? Google search has 90% market share. It's highly likely that most Vivaldi users shun Google Search but that's irrelevant given Vivaldi's tiny market share. Because Google's web index is way bigger than everyone else's, e.g., 3x Microsoft's at the time of writing of that article, the other major browsers also use Google's blacklist. So if your site is blacklisted you will get that scary notice. If you already know the site is safe you can ignore it, but most people looking for it are going to be deterred. So it is essentially a business destroyer, if Google decides you are a bad 'un. Of course, if you're one of the 90% globally using Google Search it won't appear at all.

yeah there's a lot of anti competition going on at microsoft windows 10 and 11 i believe are that way they need to stop it and now before its too late

Old Opera (Presto) could do that, but few people used it that way. You could have small windows for each tab, and resize and arrange them independently - or tile or cascade then, or of course maximize them to take up the entire work area, as browsers do today. Mind you, screens back then were taller than they are now if less wide, and these days vertical space is more of a premium unless you have at least a 1080p monitor. (4K is 2160p, but that's more on gaming machines.)

@DoctorG, feste Fliegen? [image: EeGVs0FLURBm-bBXRGmJi.png]

A perfect browser don't exist, it can only be at an individual level, depending on the needs and activities of each user. Although Vivaldi, due to its great possibilities of adapting it, comes pretty close, it can be unusable for some users, either because it is overcapacitated, because they only use it to check email and little else, or because they have very basic and old equipment, which gets red-hot with Vivaldi's minimum specifications or its not longer compatible, among other reasons.

I thought that the useful components of servo got integrated into Firefox, I had no idea it was still being developed as an independent project.

@matt991 said in Microsoft back to its old tricks, pushing Edge (again): Any suggestions how to uninstall edge from windows 10? I'm just about at the point now of ditching windows completely.. You may be interested in Edge Remover. https://github.com/ionuttbara/edge-remover/

@Pathduck This makes sense, thank you very much!

@Pathduck, well, I can wait. I don't have missed WebGPU until now

@LoneRanger12 said in When bookmarked, title for the exact link is missing in "Brave Search" as compared to "Google Search" or "Duckduckgo Search". Why?: I don't notice same behaviour in other chromium browsers such as chrome, brave, opera, edge or any you name it. ⇒ https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/662062

@a1simpleton Yeah, I saw that.

Turns out, "Puffin Cloud Isolation" allows other browsers to use the same security layer that the Puffin browser itself uses.

Since Yngve's article, I've been testing Vivaldi running without sending any Client Hints, and not noticed any site issues - at least on the sites I use daily. I believe Client Hints is just Google once again forcing their own invented "standards" on the web, by reducing the UA in Chrome and forcing sites to adapt to Client HInts - which of course give much more information about the user's system than the UA string, hence improving fingerprinting and tracking. Web developers (the stupid kind, of which there are many) will be able to fine-tune their responses to specific browsers and OS, effectively locking out anyone using minor-league browsers like Vivaldi: "We only support the most recent Chrome and Edge browsers". Here's the JSON from ModHeader: [{"headers":[{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-mobile","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-platform","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-arch","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-bitness","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-full-version-list","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-model","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-platform-version","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""},{"enabled":true,"name":"sec-ch-ua-wow64","sendEmptyHeader":false,"value":""}],"shortTitle":"1","title":"sec-ch-ua-OFF","version":2}]
