@benw93 There are several options for the Close Tab button. One can also disable it completely, and use double-click or middle-click to close tabs.
See Settings, Tabs, Tab Options.
There has to be a strong reason for changing defaults, because changes will inevitably annoy existing users.
Collecting user data is a no no for Vivaldi, though they do run surveys from time to time to see which features users like.
@sev7en There is a big issue: while probably a stable can be switched to a snapshot (newer) the opposite can't be done as it could destroy the profile and break things. Also, you'll never know if a bug depends on the crossed update or the version you are/were on.

FYI I use Vivaldi settings and https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cookie-autodelete/fhcgjolkccmbidfldomjliifgaodjagh to auto-delete as much browser data as I can when I close my browser
Hope this helps and Vivaldi starts taking data storage more seriously soon

@HarveyBirdman96 The thread is tagged as In Progress.
If you want to test the experimental Workspaces feature, go to vivaldi://experiments and enable it. Do not expect it to be polished and without bugs.
The Snapshots let you preview the latest features (and bugs).
Snapshot vs Stable
Install the Snapshot as a Standalone Version so that it does not interfere with your settings for the Stable release.
@Razielsoulshadow This is how I do it:
In the address bar, open chrome://settings/cookies
(My general settings is set to "Block third-party cookies in in-cognito".)
You will want to have "clear cookies and site data when you close all windows" toggled on.
Scroll down to "Customized Behaviors - Sites that can always use cookies"
Add the sites that you want to store cookies on exit. Ideally, you would want to add the web address that stores your login cookies. For Youtube, for example, I added "accounts.google.com" and "youtube.com" to the list. For Facebook, I think I had to add "[*.]facebook.com".
OffTopic: I guess a better protection would be a hardware token (Smartcard, Nitrokey, Yubikey etc.) and a PIN to unlock sensible data on browsers. But that would be an other feature request and discussion not applicable in this thread.
@qwc
When the focus is on Window Panel's search field, press the TAB key before starting to use the arrow keys to go through the results.
Does that work for you?
@Dogeiscut Hi, not sure if any browser allows you to import cache and cookies from other browsers. It probably wouldn't work to well even if "possible".
There are some good technical reasons why copying cache (size) and cookies (persistence) between browsers or synced is not going to work.
Does Edge allow you to import cookies and cache from other browsers?
I mean, that's great if you like that (and have a nice wide screen), but not everyone does. I personally just... can't get used to using a sidebar for finding my tabs, and it also isn't as useful in my opinion for CLOSING a bunch of them once they're open. I'll admit though, the tiled previews from tab stacking is super useful and probably the best way to find stuff I've seen with the horizontal bar. Still, if you have a bunch of different tab groups, you still need either scrolling (which doesn't work well with a mouse, for some reason) or to show more of them at once via shrinking... and you can't currently do both at once, or have it transfer as one becomes more useful than the other.
@Pesala said in Move to next tab stack with keyboard:
So, in brief, this feature request is already available, except that regular and pinned tabs are not differentiated from stacked tabs.
Switch to Next Tab or Stack.png
just to chime in, the author @GreetingMarsupial is absolutely correct here - this requested feature doesn't exist currently. I also want this feature a lot. (in fact, i unknowingly created a duplicate topic despite doing search.)
Other site to exhibit such behaviour (download button links to a webpage which internally redirects to the actual download link) is fosshub.com (e.g. here: BCU)
@ Pesala is lucky in that probably he hasn't stumbled upon such a use case - which i agree, it kinda is niche as "general" ppl nowadays don't seem to care about anything too technical
