You can ask here, on the forum, on twitter, on facebook…
But I think the best way to do it is to fill a bug report in the wizard, unless you know it has already been suggested there : https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/

Today was the first time that Vivaldi updated for me to the latest build without any issues at all after a long long time. Thank you for that as well as for your continued efforts in making Vivaldi the browser that we've been missing for several years now!

Cqoicebordel

Of course ! I'm pushing them hard to make a panel for the session manager, it would be awesome !!!

Thanks!

Yeah, I just wasn't sure about that. Didn't want to overwhelm a bug report system with feature requests. I guess it doesn't work as I thought?

Less of a feature, more of a platform. Once you have the server farm you can start doing a lot more with it than sync.

Nice with the fast forward.

Multiple rows of tabs and tab groups will keep me with Firefox (and lower memory footprint). Please, oh please, add multiple tab rows

VB-13507 is solved in Version: 1.0.418.3

But there is a new big one in Notes:
If you want to edit a Note and navigate with the up and down arrow keys within, it doesn't work. The Note content is invisible then.
Opened VB-13946 for this behavior

The problem is, I manage my Vivaldi bug reports, solved bug reports, features, etc in the Notes. Now its very hard to maintain these…

This remind me:
Where can I find a list of Vivaldi command line options?

Add Fast Forward and Rewind to Quick Command and keyboard shortcut list (VB-13304)

I fail to find the fast Forward in the Shortcuts?

Any Chance to get Gestures (Rightclick - move right and/or Left click + right click) like in the "good old Opera 12.X past"?

Options -> Mouse ist not showing anything You could make me sooo happy!

You can find it in the Keyboard cheat sheet (Ctrl+F1) or in Settings >Keyboard in the page section.

Do not use the current password manager. Its not safe. Its using the default method that comes with Chromium which has no encryption what so ever. The only browser where its safe to use as far as I know is Firefox as long as you use a master password (which acts as the encryption key).

Without a master password, I do not suggest anyone to store passwords in their systems, because malware or anything else can read them and very easily actually. Chrome actually has the most insecure password manager, of all browsers, which is the one that Vivaldi is using.

So unless they rewrite this or put encryption over it with a master password, I advise you not to use it and disable password saving on websites. Use something like KeePass which can auto log into websites.

Storing passwords in plain in your computer is not safe.

Sounds therapeutic!

The "average user" seems to me like the "average family" that governments talk about; a statistical fiction who one never seems to meet in real life.

Not criticizing you just sympathizing with you…It's hell to be the only person with a certain problem isn't it ? A clean install fixed MANY of mine...(hint) have you tried that?

If anyone was going to have problems it would be my old patched system but FINE in last builds.

Thank you very much Vivaldi team

I used to be a Opera user until they made the switch to chromium and killed off Presto (which was my favourite engine).
As a Tux user I waited for over a year while mac and Windows got their fixes and builds.
One their blog I asked if "Linux" support was dropped (got a hostile response from a few die-hard Opera users)

Anyway thanks for being transparent with us Tux users and keep up the brilliant work

Thanks for the fixes guys! And for your message of serving a better browser for the power user. I'll continue to promote Vivaldi to dissafected Firefox users who are unsatisfied with the way things are going with Firefox.

And to be clear, I think that Chrome and Firefox aren't even serving average users that well to begin with. Opera 12 seems just as "easy" to use as any browser. Vivaldi seems just as easy to use as any other browser, and looks nicer too(Chrome is very ugly and outdated looking, IMO).

I also think that you don't NEED to compromise on power users at all just to serve average users, and vice versa. I think Vivaldi and Opera 12 have always struck that perfect best of both worlds deal with users, especially Vivaldi.

In Vivaldi, the UI looks super clean and neat and modern, but delve in further and find that power users will find their goldmine there to be used.

I know Vivaldi hasn't implemented everything I want, and I've probably been kind of annoying about it, lol, but I'm sure they remember those things(tab cycling like O12, mouse cursor appears in fullscreen videos, etc.), but they're on their way to getting to the Final release, so they're focusing on making Vivaldi stable to use before adding many new features.

I don't know if that means there won't really be many new features before the final, but so far we're looking at what'll shape up to be a great browser for the final, and I can't wait to see what features come after!
