Vivaldi 2.2: Focus on details
-
Congratulations! Good job and a nice pre-Christmas gift
-
Wow, it seems like you've waited with the release till morning, to make people's days.
-
What a good news!
-
I love that there are session finally. But as always I must criticize, why isn't TLS 1.3 enabled?

'Time travel with a middle-click'
Thank you so much I've been waiting for this -
Congrats on the 2.2 release! This sure is an impressive changelog.
-
I follow this through the snapshots but having the update appear on my work machine this morning, running the Stable branch, really made me appreciate just how many new useful new features and tweaks have been added since 2.1.
The best just keeps getting better! Thanks!
-
Excellent work, team Vivaldi.

Time travel with a middle-click
Thanks I've been waiting for this -
Aaand the Home page button is gone forever. Thanks!
But, you changed the extension toggle again, and managed to make it even worse than before. Extensions must get proper support!

Great

Lol, some are dreaming of Christmas vacations, not a bad thing per se, I fully agree, but guys,
-the Speed Dial bar that gets locked when you access (a) Speed Dial then Bookmarks and back was still not fixed,
-you can't select text and drag-drop it to the search bar, and
-you 've also brought the middle-click moving around of Speed Dials to the stable (I use middle click on Speed Dials all the time and the result is that my SD are constantly accidentaly moved around), and some other reported bugs.I know it's exciting showing off the new features but don't rush so much! You should/could have waited one week!

@Gwen-Dragon A status page would be easier way to inform about this kind of stuff anyway...
-
Really nice one! I'm Vivappy!

One of the best updates I've ever read for Vivaldi ... I'm quite sad I don't use it since I don't like the technology it's built on top (Chromium + Node + React = a very ugly nightmare for me ), but I'm happy to see that it exists
However there's an error in the article:
Time travel with a middle-click
The Address toolbar also gained a powerful new feature. Long-click on one of the history navigation buttons (e.g. Back or Forward) to bring up the sub-menu, then middle-click an entry to open it in a new tab.
No other browser makes it so easy for you to travel quickly through your timeline, without the need to leave the page you are currently viewing.
I use Firefox actually, and it works exactly as you described here
However, congrats for your release

@Engelium said in Vivaldi 2.2: Focus on details:
Chromium + Node + React
Unless I'm mistaken, Vivaldi just uses chromium and react. It doesn't need to use node as chromium already has a javascript engine within it.

Nope... Vivadi uses node.js too ... however it isn't the point ... simply I don't like a browser built with web (inefficient) technologies, and I don't like Chromium itself (and I like "file based" software)... but It's only a personal taste, so good for all the people who love it
-
@Engelium True. With JS it's certainly never going to be as fast as a totally native UI.
For my use though I quite like being able to change Vivaldi "on the fly", which is only possible due to the dynamic nature of writing it using HTML & JS.

I don't get it. Time travel with a "middle-click" is either wrong or misleading, unless here "middle click" is not meaning middle mouse button (that is, the mouse wheel, for me) but then I don't get what it means
While "Long-click on one of the history navigation buttons (e.g. Back or Forward) to bring up the sub-menu," doesn't even specify right or left click.
I had to split this hair in 4 because I was actually trying keeping middle mouse clicked on back arrow while the list appears keeping left mouse button clicked, or simply clicking right mouse button. -
