  The Mods you want Vivaldi to directly integrate in it?

  I think it only makes sense for Vivaldi to integrate a few of the mods I use, things like the Sessions Panel the panel controls like zoom, kill, find, etc., and *maybe* Autosave Sessions. More to the point though, the very existence of these mods makes all of them extremely low priority. I'd much rather have the Vivaldi dev team spend their limited resources on developing functionality I don't have access to rather than refactoring code to internalize it. The effort to install & maintain mods is minimal. Directing new users to useful mods helps to illuminate the power Vivaldi provides the end user and grow the modding community. So while there are a handful of mods that make sense from a design standpoint to be internalized, I don't think internalizing them makes sense from a project management standpoint, at least at this time. The ones that I think would make the most sense not only need to fit from a design standpoint, but would also benefit from ownership by Vivaldi -- that is to say they would grow beyond their current scope. With that in mind, the Sessions Panel makes the most sense to me. There is some functionality that I think should be added to the panel, which wild be more easily done internally, and it is a superior UX to accessing and managing sessions than the current UI offers. In that case, both Vivaldi and the mod are benefitting. Although it may not check all my other requirements, because it protects users from data loss I've included Autosave Sessions on the list. Unfortunately it typically requires a user being bit once before they investigate a way to have their session protected. The Autosave Sessions mod is great for that, and having it internal would really serve to differentiate Vivaldi as well. But as a general rule, it's the functionality that people want which has not, and especially cannot, be had by installing a mod that I would rather have Vivaldi working to build rather than moving mods to the Vivaldi maintained code base.

  @Onieyus Once you install an extension with the "Load unpacked" option (Developer Mode), they can only be updated manually. You can point the installer to the folder containing the manifest file from your backup. You might also be able to obtain an older version if you search around, there are sites out there for this purpose. BUT- big warning here - there is zero guarantee the CRX file you download has not been tampered with in the meantime so you need to very careful using such sites. I would not recommend you set the extension folder read-only, it's bound to get you into problems down the road...

  You are talking about which Calendar? The browser has no Calendar feature yet. A extension or a website!? Please tell!

  @ryonez I have the same setup. I use both browsers pretty regularly. I do run Firefox Nightly though, because I'm not afraid of bugs, and bug reporting. Nightly is pretty fast to be honest.

  The tab thumbs are dynamically sized so that you can fit them all. Changing the height would most certainly require scrolling of the tabs and moving of the new tab button. You should put in a feature request for some of these as native support for scrollable tabs would most certainly be better than any mod
