@ayespy said in Request the ability to sign into Chrome account.: @destructiveburn However, Vivaldi sync is in the experimental stage and can be activated at vivaldi://experiments, and Vivaldi can import from other browsers. So it's already basically possible to keep your data synced. Vivaldi sync in vivaldi://experiments is exactly what I needed! I know about Import/Export option. Thanks. Having Vivaldi communicate on all Vivaldi browsers I set is what I wanted. My request is no longer needed! Thanks again! @lonm said in Request the ability to sign into Chrome account.: Sync is quite a valuable tool for keeping users entrenched in using one particular browser ecosystem. (Google, Mozilla...), so I don't foresee the other vendors allowing this any time soon. I'm well aware Sync can be a valuable tool, but what it can do the risks are worth it. Especially if most sites you set for passwords use Two Factor Authentication. Maybe that can also be a request for the experimental Vivaldi sync on the browsers.

It worked, sync was successful :)! Thank you for your support.

@julien_picalausa Interesting :) Favicons use a MRU => didn't know about it... What's the list max size? I did experiment with copying profile (on 1.16.1195.3) I didn't clean server data There was warning message after start that Sync stopped working. I logged out and in After initial sync notes got doubled :/ Maybe it is about attachments?... Since copying profile to another computer I have problems with turning on "remote sessions". I tried turning session sync off and on again but it didn't help... Neither cleaning server data and re-sync... After some consideration I found mysterious setting in Preferences called session_sync_guid. Maybe it has something to do with problem?...

The search field in the Notes Panel could help you find duplicates quickly as long as you don't have hundreds of notes.

@ineuw Yes, same experience i made on my Mint, deletion helps in this special case of crash.

@lonm Thanks. I'm sure Vivaldi puts a lot of effort into security. But if there is a lot of sensitive data on one server, it's always a good target for hackers (that will sooner or later find a week spot). Add the sync feature with a Vivaldi-only-server first but don't discard the idea of a user-based sync-server. Developers can do it later (low priority).

@ineuw I agree with your opinions, but the synchronization service is currently in development, so if they are missing features or you found some bugs, it's good time to report them. 😉 BTW, your request is already implemented in the lastest public Snapshot 1.16.1177.5 -- [Sync] Possibility to “Clear Data on Server” right after signing in (VB-39985)

@martin-storch Maybe. I can't think how.

Ja, jetzt läuft Sync wieder. Deswegen ist der rote Hinweis ja auch weg.

I know that after a couple of weeks of not using whatever the other synced device was, the synced tabs will not be listed anymore.

@rojaviv The machine key is coming from Chromium, which is why profile copying from one machine to another loses part of the data. I would guess that V sync deals with this encryption - after all, the sync data is encrypted with the extra sync password, so probably the machine encryption is removed beforehand. But maybe this can be clarified by the team?

Thanks for the feedback. I will tag the post as resolved

@mbirth Known bug connected to sync. Already fixed internally.

Huh... same thing with remote sessions button... Isn't it possible to access / share Sync data between windows?...

YES!!! We want a mobile browser.

I'd rather see this feature when Windows panel will be able to manage multiple windows. Then we could add a browser instances to it so we could just fully manage every tab on every device from every device. Changes like this could be real time if other device is powered up or set to be synced when the device is online again. Of course pushing tabs like moving tabs to other windows is good too, but I'm still looking for a browser that could manage tabs in real time from any device. It's 2018, yet we still can't just open a bunch of tabs on desktop computer, realize it's late and we're gonna miss the train so we grab a laptop/tablet/phone and just continue browsing on other devices AND be able to close tabs that we've already read, so we don't have to close tabs again when we get back.

@ayespy Thanks for the info. Couldn't find it in the forum.

Currently Sync works over hours.
