People write about Vivaldi. 😊 If you come across any stories, articles on tech sites and magazines, on social media and forums, blog or vlogs, please do share here.
A lot of them lead to some interesting discussions and bring forward your views. This way we can continue to spread the word about Vivaldi!
@Streptococcus said in Vivaldi update:
@jon
I wish you could make the font for the internal menus larger, and also change the background colour. The bookmarks toolbar is black with white text and the font is size 16pt (I think), but the menus from there are white with tiny text.
@Streptococcus , feel free to add a feature request through the bug tracking system. We continue to work on making things really flexible and this should be on the list.
A must to pass on.
Not usually what I listen to but this was both Fascinating from a historical perspective and very Interesting to hear Jon's philosophy on a business model for Vivaldi (and the old Opera).
Sadly, few hold his position.
@luetage absolutely. I watched the 1 hour podcast (which IS freely available) https://www.heise.de/news/Welchen-Browser-man-2021-benutzen-will-c-t-uplink-36-1-5018988.html and they talk a full 2 minutes about Vivaldi, with one of them saying he contemplates using it when M3 becomes official, and the other cringing when he says that. Why can't everyone just see as clearly as we do!?!?
For an absolute Niche browser I believe such articles have merit in so far as that there are experts that say you can safely install this software and that it's actually pretty good. And with 200,000 printed c't magazines, I would guess that this article is going to do have more impact than, say, my blog on vivaldi.net

@luetage The fact that I'd have to find the custom CSS or write (which I cannot do myself) it is still a big problem (accessibility is the reason I want to switch from Opera in the first place, not having solutions to my problems built in is just as much an issue). I'm fine with using what I have at the moment and will keep using it until something that's as easy to use comes along, or someone makes something even better (or until it stops working, that will probably happen first).
Also, I do know the browser well enough to know that it's not accessible enough for me. UI is a huge thing for me and if it's not done well enough the whole thing just becomes unusable since my brain just can't deal with it properly. also it's very hard for me to concentrate enough to go about my way to get everything exactly right.
@Eggcorn said in Do you remember who told you about Vivaldi? :
he pushes his software a lot further then most people do. So he runs into bugs more then most people do.
He's not the type to scapegoat, to knowingly blame problems caused by Vivaldi on something else.
Sounds like he'd fit in here nicely
I move here since Opera 12 done for, so my favorite features are those features that keep me on old Opera.
Tab stacks : I like to keep all I think I will revisit again opened so over 200+ tabs opened are normal thing to me.
Customization : One size never fit all, more customizable, more love from me.
Speed dial : Fast, short and simple way to navigate to any bookmark page.
@Pliex "Best" is a personal choice. I kind of hate the designs that you like. Personal choice. But in all cases, function should be considered as senior to style. Style choices can come later. FIRST, everything has to work fully, and work right. The most beautiful car is useless if it has no power, terrible fuel mileage, and no passenger or cargo space. Function first.
