        I updated one of my Vivaldi Stable installation and saw annoying popup related to Sync. I do not use Sync feature and I never enabled it. I would like to never see such a popups in the future. Not a big issue but a small annoyance.

          The new navigation icons are uh...not good. Smaller heads on arrows makes them less instantly readable. The hexagon around the stop loading icon takes focus away from the "x" inside. These icons may have slightly more "character" but they're far less readable.

            @gctypo, if you don't like it, you can use the old icons in the Theme settings.

              @atlemo said in A New Vivaldi – A Whole New Browsing Experience:

              If you also want the old icon set, disable "Use Icon Set From" directly under the theme editor.
              Then it will be literally unchanged from 6.9. Enjoy!

              Nothing happened when I did that BTW, what worked for me was leaving it enabled and selecting anything other than Current Theme - I left it on "Human" but I have the same old icons in all 3 themes (the ones where the Home button doesn't look like I'm trying to go to the Pentagon's webpage lol).

                Hi, all old themes are on the Vivaldi themes page, I use Human too and don't like the new background image.

                If you want to edit existing themes you can change all other settings following this sticky tread:

                    Why try anything else? My problem is fixed, the buttons look like I'm used to, I'm not changing the theme, just the buttons, and that works with any selection except Current Theme (or with disabling the icons checkbox, that just keeps the v7.0 buttons that I don't like).

                      @atlemo but i want no rounding at all and it still has all context menus rounded. I hate rounded corners it makes everything look like making stuff toddler-safe.

                            You can download the pre 7.0 themes on:
                            https://themes.vivaldi.net/categories/vivaldi-official
                            With both Compact settings enabled it should look exactly like 6.9.

                                      Yeah there are 20 threads about it because there isn't a simple way to go back.

                                      EDIT: and you just spent many comments helping someone do it because it's multiple completely unrelated settings that either got added defaulting on or already existed and changed the defaults.

                                          I updated one of my Vivaldi Stable installation and saw annoying popup related to Sync. I do not use Sync feature and I never enabled it. I would like to never see such a popups in the future. Not a big issue but a small annoyance.

                                          I went to some mail site today and Vivaldi showed me popup something like "Try Vivaldi mail instead". Such annoying things are expected from Chrome or Edge but not from Vivaldi. I don't want to see such popups ever. 👎

                                          I also don't like the fact that Vivaldi knows the category of sites I am on 👎

                                            @Stardust So you believe Vivaldi actively tracks pages you are visiting to show you targeted ads for their own product.
