An Easter egg for April Fools’ Day
-
Due to the positive feedback about this cool easter I actually did a request
(I don't think is a good idea keeping as "true" setting, as panel could change a lot in the meantime -- and devs shouldn't have to fix an easter )@Vakkotaur Dynamic history clock is not about usefullness. It's just nice to see, and make appear Vivaldi (even more) like a dynamic and live project.
Or at least is how I consider this "feature". -
- Thought that it was a bug.
- Remembered that I came across the blog post about easter egg.
- I think I found one.
Really apreciate animating pictures so they turn upside down.
Could have made a better choice for the font though -
Talking of April's fools jokes on other sites - the stackoverflow.one is pretty cool. Not super-original but I like the cursor effect, and a very nice write-up of some internet history.

- I saw @Hadden89's request
- I looked at history panel–couldn't find it
- Disabled all mods (including the ones hiding header and changing the panel icon)
- Opened new window
- Tried to find the clock again–still nothing
- Looked at the icon and thought How could somebody design that ugly icon?
- Tried to find some explantation in the forum–found this topic
- Huh...
-
I also noticed the real-time clock history icon.
I'm not the first but proud of myself.Please add this as a feature. ))
-
I hate these easter eggs. I can look right at it for hours and never see them.
I agree. It should stay this way. -
The history icon is different in both stable and unstable..... Those Collectors edition stickers are cool
-
thanks global mods for the bundle hack so i can keep this after april fools, just sad that i wasn't the first, but ill keep my open for the next time i can nab those: “collector edition” stickers particularly the orange version.
-
Google have this one for today
-
Can you bring back previous "light" panel icons? I don't like new bold.
-
New to Vivaldi. Love the browser. Love the easter egg. Please keep it.

Hope you all enjoyed our “ticking” clock yesterday!
In the words of @helmers, our dev who snuck this into the browser for you: “Checked the blog again. Truly overwhelming feedback.”
The first to post the correct reply was @apanx1 who said: “The clock icon for the history panel shows current time instead of just being static at 4 o’clock. This reverts if the date is not 1st of April."
@apanx1 I’ve contacted you through the forum chat, we have a few fun Vivaldi stickers for you

Was it the history icon? I just figured that was a new feature since I had just gotten the latest snapshot, but it seems to be gone today!
-
@ajk It was only for Apr 1.
-
@ajk You can upvote this feature request.
-
@ajk: ah ok, it was! Darn I just thought that was a new feature
-
"your local time" is unfair!!! Should be UTC.
-
@mrmeireles It doesn't display any real time right now. UTC would be easily doable though.
-
Is it the Super Exclusive Limited Edition Icon Pack from vivaldi 2 mac installer? Should i post the link?
