Solved Is vivaldi Webmail "self-standing"?
-
@far4 I don't know, it might a bug since it works in brave. But maybe the Brave developers edited it for their app
-
Well.
@DoctorG @luetage
Sorry for the inconvenience, please review the last 3 pages of the thread and suggest what can be done here?It's about the service bar below omnibox that allows you to paste text from clipboard, which doesn't appear on a new tab if ‘Focus address bar on new tab’ is enabled in Settings. Is this named a bug or a request for omnibox improvement?
-
@far4 before either @luetage or @DoctorG answer let me give my 2cents with a bit of an outside view: in a thread that is titled 'Is Vivaldi Webmail self-standing', which got completely derailed to become about some omnibox topic, you ping two of the top forum helpers to review the last three pages and make some suggestions ... I don't think this is good.
I think we can appreciate that you give a short summary what you are interested in, but please consider raising a completely new topic with the relevant information summarized in a consise manner, and let's close this thread.

@WildEnte
I'm sorry. Yes, the topic has devolved into a free discussion of current android/Vivaldi related issues.
It might be better to split this topic and move it to the android section. -
@WildEnte @far4 This is the link to the topic I created for that problem:https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/104362/omnibox-shortcuts-not-working/2?_=1736327187844
But I didn't get any solution... -

Vivaldi does not distinguish between links and plain text in clipboard - that's true. But I think it's a small thing.
Why did you say that? It recognizes the links, maybe you didn't observe that or you have activated another flag that supresses this feature.

There isn’t really a reason to use Proton, it only encrypts emails sent from and to another Proton email account, in any other circumstance your emails are not being encrypted.
Just want to correct this, Proton uses zero-access-encryption, which I understand means the inbox is encrypted no matter where or what service an email comes from.

@fjc1029 Yes, the data is encrypted on their server, just like Vivaldi Sync encrypts our data. But emails you receive have a sender and emails you send have a receiver—their email server can still leak the mails. Both have to use Proton, or both have to use PGP / S/MIME for it to make sense; preferably being used on a client, not webmail.
-
@luetage Yes, the point being is that in the event our own email inbox gets hacked, all emails are encrypted no matter if they are sent to us as such. There is nothing we can do about another persons inbox if they don't use encryption, which is still most users these days. However, to answer the posters original question, using the Vivaldi Mail email client and storing mails on your own machine can be just as good and private is a Proton inbox, as I describe here.
