Presto in later versions. Since the lead of that project is one of co-founders of the original Opera project, is there any chance to see Presto itself or functional fork in Vivaldi eventually? Otherw

No there are no chances of that. Presto is Opera's property. They decided to kill it and it has not been made open-source.

When we can expect "search with"?

I'm missing an ads filter, like Opera 12.x urlfilter.ini

vivaldi.net social part is totally buggy multiple notifications, disappearing comments, no ability to correctly copy a link to a specific comment, sometimes pagination doesn't work, after using pagination F5 causes 404 Error, and much much more…

jacekn

yeah vivaldi social thing is buggy as hell

jacekn

this is site-specific feature. it should not be a part of browser core. this would be possible with extensions.

jacekn

i prefer it the way it is, so it should be an option

AFAIK it depends on the page itself

Actually, it would be interesting to see "refresh tab when hovered". But I can understand that this could kill the tab preview meaning if done wrong (and I'm not sure if it could be done right)

If I press the fast-forward button on this page, Vivaldi makes my computer sluggish.

Clicking the navigation buttons at page bottom causes V to freeze and crash. W7 64bit.

This browser is so awesome!!! Thank you for making the true successor for us Opera Presto fans.

Really, the only thing keeping me from using it as my full-time browser is extension support!

**question: I can't seem to stack tabs when I have them placed on the left (rather than at the top). Is this a known issue? Also, is there a way I can donate money or my time to this project?? I'd love to file bug reports…is the only way to do so via these comments in the blog posts?

I'm pleased that each new version I install has more of what I want. Vivaldi is already much more to my liking than what Opera has become.

There are a couple of somewhat-related things that I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere that I really want. One is the ability to not reuse the same tab when clicking on a bookmark. Having the page I was reading disappear because I decide I want to open a bookmarked site drives me crazy. The second is the equivalent of Presto Opera's f2, which lets you enter the address or bookmark nickname for a site to open in a new tab. I don't use SpeedDial and I see no reason have it come up first whenever I want a new tab.

I am afraid, it prevents to reach functionality of original Opera, since from my point of view, that functionality is tightly links to the engine - Presto. So the only way to create a functional analogue of Opera browser is to create a functional analogue of Presto. Just like for similar reasons Unix fork BSD was born. I don't think it is possible to emulate all classic Opera browser functionality under much simpler engine. Actually we all clearly see that in Chrome Opera project. Do we need another clone of Chrome?

Looks really great. I switched today to Vivaldi as my main browser - let's see if it holds up.

I don't know how new the following are, but I love:

that I can now use Chrome extensions directly from the store (LastPass, Evernote, Adblock are working fine)
the site preferences (available when you click on the badge in the URL bar).
the ability to pin tabs
it seems faster

I still miss:

mail
RSS icon in URL bar and way to auto-subscribe e.g. in Netvibes or other clients
customizable toolbar buttons (I never use the "Home" button)

Keep up the good work!

what exactly are you talking about? what exactly can't be done without exact web rendering engine like Presto?
