TP3 is here!
-
See. Anyway, congrats on the new release as another awesome step to beta!
-
Possible bug: sometimes when refreshing a page it jumps to the top of the page instead to the previous position. Sometimes it works, seems to be dependent on how long the page takes to load.
btw: great work! Loving the browser and using it more and more instead of Opera. Looking forward for sync feature to sync my data across my different machines and operating systems.

You might want to change the vivaldi.net main page… it still points to TP2!!!
-
"Added data import from all major browsers."
All major browsers? Only IE and Opera 12 seem to be supported so far. What happened to Chrome, Opera 15+, Firefox etc -
The main problem IMHO is the use of JS instead of a real programming language (native) … I don't understand why today people think this is something "cool" .... it is only a performance issue and causes lot of weird visual glitches/errors
IMHO programmers should use for their work only PCs with a Pentium 4 CPU to understand how a good program is made

Congrats for the TP3
however can you take in consideration the idea of making the Vivaldi folder big in the range of normal browsers ? … +1 GB is acceptable for a game not a browser O_o
please shrink all the useless things (I even noticed the Vivaldi installer is saved in it uncompressed) and take care of this aspect too

Congratulations.

Thx

Snapshots wont autp-update to Technical Previews, they are on a different auto-update lane

JavaScript is a real programming language. In fact a pretty awesome one. It takes very little knowledge about programming to diss it.
You are repeating a very old myth about low performance of JavaScript, which was proven untrue several years ago. Move on… -
sync anyone?
-
The development speed you're seeing is only possibly because of this incredibly smart decision to use web technology to build a web browser.
Vivaldi wouldn't be nearly what it is now if it had to be built natively for each platform separately.
And rest assured it's performant enough so you won't notice any difference compared to other Chromium browsers once it's optimized. -
as chromium vendor, Vivaldi have access to low lvl code (native coding), and they probably doing it…but any "bigger" deviation from it could screw things in next builds (changes in chromium could fight with custom changes made by Vivaldi)
JS on the other hand is easy to fix,track, change, code ...and JS engine in chromium is very powerful beast -
Sort of. We know about a bug that makes UI scale and there will be a fix for that alongside an awesome new setting. This should hopefully fix your issue.
-
They are all supported, but you'll only see the ones that you have installed on your system.
-
import from Yandex, Chrome, Opera 15+ and Firefox works fine for me
-
native window feels much snappier than without it
maybe it the way to go (without custom window decoration) -

You are repeating a very old myth about low performance of JavaScript, which was proven untrue several years ago. Move on…Nope, it is not a myth… all you can say is that now JS can reach performance quite similar to native code (still not the same.... look for something like asm.js) and, in every case, it is possible only on very high end PCs ... and you can see this using a PC not so new
Christoph142 and Vux777 are right, but your reply is not
-
I have opera 15+ installed, but I don't see it as available on the import list
-
ChrOpera's UI also uses web technologies and It's quite snappy. For sure Vivaldi will be the same eventually.
