Tree Tabs

greywolfnz

@greywolfnz i just checked and lik you said it is broken, it like this day will come sooner or later because tree tabs is a dead project.

Oh, absolutely - I knew it would stop working some day, just hoping there might be a band-aid to keep it going because I like it so much

@guigirl, @slimymars thanks for the suggestions - I'll give those a crack!

Maybe this is fine.

@slimymars - you utter legend. A fix like that was exactly what I was hoping for when posting here. A million thanks!

Could you explain what needs to be done with the code?

Replace backgroud_vivaldi.js with the file at this URL.

@slimymars It works, thank you.

Where did all the themes go? The folder linked in the original post is empty now.

@kroppy did they get moved? or removed entirely?

Ayespy

@o0beaner There are ten default themes under settings, and in the same box as these themes, a link to a web location where you can see and download 170+ more themes.

@guigirl How and where did you get a copy of Sidebery for Chromium? Or was that a FF and Sidebery recommendation as an alt overall.
On FF I've found it to be better and more reliable than TT.
Run TT for my Chromium based and Sideberry for my FF Based.

Does it work in 2023! I want Tree Tabs so bad!

Ayespy

@TheAMan006 Have you tried the Windows panel?

TheAMan006

@Ayespy @Ayespy But Window side panel is not actually Tree Style (By Context).
Here:

New tabs opened from the current tab are automatically organized as "children" of the current tab.
Such "branches" are easily folded (collapsed) by clicking on the arrow shown in the "parent" tab, so you no longer need to suffer from too many visible tabs.
If you want, you can restructure the tree via drag and drop.
Such a tree of tabs will behave like a visual browsing history for you.
For example, if you see a list of search results for a topic, each search result link will open in new child tab.
New tabs opened from these "child" tabs will appear as descendants of their originating tabs.
You'll easily dig and dig deeply, without losing your browsing trail - if you want to go back to the original search result, you just have to switch to the "root" tab.

Window panel does not do any of that... Context Tree, I guess, would be the right term. Vivaldi doesn't have Context-Tree-Style Tabs.

@TheAMan006 Sorry it does not perform the way you expect.

I'm pretty sure there is a feature request for this, which you can upvote.

Only problem is, it will require a substantial re-write (and update/patch every single day) of Chromium code.

TheAMan006

@Ayespy Btw, since you're an insider, any estimation on how many devs they have, and what their revenue even is?

Ayespy

@TheAMan006 I can't guess revenues. My sense is that they are still not quite profitable.

There are about twenty devs, two designers (I think) a few android designers, one or two iOS devs, and three mail devs.

That's my best sense at present.

Pesala

@TheAMan006 The size of the Vivaldi Team is not a secret. Twenty-five of them are developers.

There are 59 team members, including a comfort cat, a guard dog, and a sleeping dog.

Ayespy

@Pesala Exactly, but developers of what, exactly? I think I'm pretty close with my estimates.

TheAMan006

Maybe you should change the revenue model and make it a paid browser. I'd totally be okay with paying, say, forty dollars per year, to use this beautiful browser if, say, it had Tree Tabs and Multi Account Containers too. And as for Android and Mail dev teams, I think Vivaldi should shift focus away from them. The only people who use Vivaldi on Android do so for your built in AdBlocker, and that's quite stable, I guess. I think Vivaldi should go all in on satisfying the power users, for a nice price in dollars; lol, I saw a guy on your forum today who uses decades old Firefox installation for multi-line tabs! Clearly there's a huge market of unsatisfied power users Vivaldi can capitalize upon...
