Use the mobile version, of course.

Many users use Twitter on Web panel. And I amazed that many users use web game app for smartphone on Web panel. Incidentally, I recommend Pocket!

When you add more, the space ends, there are no more added recently! Only shows if I zoom out. - http://i.imgur.com/JZFkD4D.jpg
Sorry for my English. -
I would love to use panels for some news website, but it's impossible without the Ad-blockers support into it.
Is there any ETA for adblock support on panels ?Another thing, i would love to move up and down my different panels to change their orders.
Otherwise, i would never thought i would have dropped Firefox ever, but after using Vivaldi, it seems such a prehistoric browser in term of features.
Too bad, Firefox is still love for me for his philosophy, but now with Vivaldi in the race, it's difficult to me to come back to my first love.Thanks Vivaldi Team, u've made an awesome work so far.

Another great release, keep up the excellent work Vivaldi team

No problem with your English
I have created VB-23296 as a feature request for all of us who want to add even more panels:
A context menu entry that allows us to switch through all of the (hidden) panels. -
Thanks !!!
-
Yes! Google Translate has been a lifesaver for me

Feel free to you to visit the websites with all this flashy / noisy ads.
I'm not against acceptable ads, i know what's the business model behind websites, but some have lost reason.Sorry, I probably didn't teach you anything, you seem to be such a clever guy with your miracle solutions.

Love web panels, but one thing I would love is the ability for them to render above the web page in the main ui. For example, if you open a web panel, the web page you are looking at may resize if it is a progressive app (ie Gmail) and that often takes a lot of cpu for a couple of secs (if you have a lot of emails), especially if the web panel is quite wide. So I'd like the web panel to effectively pop on top of Gmail and stay there until I close the panel. I know I can't get to the left side of Gmail underneath, but for this use case, I want to pop open something and then pop it closed again without the main web page even knowing or being affected. I don't think that's currently possible?

I would love being able to control the zoom applied JUST in the web panel (I cannot find how to zoom in/out in it). If so, I could use some sites like Web WhatsApp in just a small web panel

I despise ads a lot. I'm much more enclined to tip the creator than to support an ads system. For that reason, I block ads, and I tip the content creator myself (and they usually get more money from me that way that they would have with any amount of ads).
I also stopped listening to every radio station that broadcasts ads, same for TV. And the day that augmented reality glasses will be powerful enough to include an ad-blocker for actual real life street ads, I'll be among the firsts to use it.
Ads are one of the worst way for a society to make an economy run healthily as it keeps feeding your brain with non-stopping hints on what you "need" in your life and trick you into believing a brandmark is better than another.
Even though I understand that small content creators often rely only on that, I'll keep fighting ads as much as I can. Using a website that uses ads with an adblocker is a way to tell the content creator "No, this system won't do".

When I make Vivaldi my main browser I plan to make use of the webpanels as a window for my personal Notes/Todo List/Knowledge Base that is Tiddlywiki
It would be very nice to eventually see some sort of collaboration between the two projects in the future, like web clipping directly into a tiddlywki file or direct saving to disk support

Notifications on Panel !!! Anyone ???
Even a red dot is enough for me
-
That would be a must to keep chat services readily accessible in a web panel

I stopped using web panels for this when I realized they never stop loading in the background. I had Twitter and even with the panel closed, it was constantly reloading the feed. I checked this multiple times with my task manager. Not sure if this was fixed or not, since maybe its not even a bug and some people want this (I don't, not at least for most web panels).
I hope you guys realize this.
If the web panel is open, sure you want them to be active, its just like having a different window open but smaller.
But if the web panels are currently closed, the sites are still constantly loading in the background eating bandwidth, CPU and even trashing your disk. Personally I don't like this. If a web panel is closed/minimized (not in your visual rendering screen), it should stop the activity. I understand some may like this, but its like constantly loading invisible websites when you are not looking. This makes your whole system slower and so it does Vivaldi.

Hmmm… I don't see it this way.
IMHO, a web panel should behave like an open tab, whatever it is displayed or not. For example, one of my main usage is for instant messaging (Facebook web messenger, Hangout web, ...). I want Vivaldi to play a notification or a sound when a new message arrive, even if the web panel was hidden.
I don't think it is using more cpu/disk than a tab you have been pinned and left in background. -
I agree at 1000 %
This would be awesome for chat services like duarte.framos said, but I'm not sure how this could be done… What should trigger this notification? For example, I know that Google Chrome blinks the inbox/gmail tab if there is a new hangout message, but I don't know what is the mechanism behind that. -
Nice! Good shout with Pocket. I'm a bit obsessed with that one myself so might make sense to give it a home there.

Great to hear! Out of curiosity, what's your favourite use for them?
