Private Tabs

Private Tabs as well as Private Windows
//MODEDIT: similar request: Multi-Account Containers

Depending on the amount of code restructuring needed it may be a good Idea to take this oportunity to implement (or extend) Firefox' contextualIdentities API.
Since Vivaldi supports tab grouping it is possible to allow opening of tabs belonging to the same container only in the same tab group (with non-global context) instead of color-coding container affiliation.
A private tab (group) can then be a transient containter which is removed after no more tabs reference it (tab group close).

Since this is the highest voted, I'll post similar feature links here:

@pikachu01 I kind of hijacked this thread by introducing a reference to the Firefox feature. It was (at the time) just the last entry requiring a sensible grouping of tabs with a special (shared) context.
A general consolidation of threads concerning private/container tab groupings would be helpful, since many users seem unable to understand the feature relation or did not search for existing requests. The result is a split of upvotes for private tabs (and related requirements) over multiple posts/threads. -
and every tab then fully private, not like with opera, where all opened private tabs hav a shared content.
-
I kinda find this to be a must-have feature nowadays if you really care for privacy. The way that Firefox does it is not bad at all. So something similar would be really nice.

@kurevska_registracia +1 Great idea! (a taktiež perfektný nickname :-D)
-
Still no private tabs?? Does somebody know if this is even planned?

@schreck It's in developer consciousness, but extremely complex.

Private tabs - The feature of Opera 12. Bring it to Vivaldi!

Vivaldi development team:
I really like the era of Opera 12.
I like Opera's Private tab function. If a window can display normal tabs and private tabs, users do not need to switch back and forth between normal and private windows, and users can focus more on their web browsing and their needs.It's time to introduce the Private tabs function so that users can use Private tabs in Vivaldi.
As a user of Opera 12, I think traditional Opera users will feel the same about my proposal.

Chit-chat: chat about Private tab
Private tab will be an effective way for us to get rid of the algorithm. Sometimes I don't want to see the Youtube homepage is full of topic-related videos based on the keywords of the videos I have viewed.
I think everyone has this experience. After watching videos on a specific topic, we found that at least 20% of the Youtube homepage is similar to the video topic I have browsed. This algorithm-based content recommendation will let us see
The content is single, unless we search for specified keywords.Private tab allows us to see the Youtube under private browsing without leaving the current window and tabs in front of us. Without a login account, Youtube's push algorithm cannot grasp the content we have browsed and guess our tastes.
, Our favorite theme.
Then discover more different content. -
@JohnConnorBear Could you please take your infinite wisdom elsewhere, to some other part of teh interwebs not yet blessed by your glorious presence. You have made it perfectly clear how much you detest this forum and its members, so it boggles the mind to see you still here, participating with such vigor. Seems like energy wasted, if you ask me. Although I know you wouldn't.
(My apologies to the mods and fellow members for this outburst, but sometimes enough is just enough. I'm willing to follow my own advice, if needed.)

Yes Plz. This is a really awesome feature from Opera 12. Wish it gets implemented in future releases.

Ppafflick moved this topic from Automotive Feature Requests on -
@kurevska_registracia Yes please, New private Tab would be great, thanks
-
It would be super handy if there'd be a Toggle Private Mode slider per tab. With that we can easily Accept All Cookies & Everything Else after turning private mode on.

UP
Could be very useful
especialy since Youtube adblocker struggle, as we have to open YT links in private to bypass ads
-
Look this posts to solve the problem with YT:

No, this is a bad idea! Who wants to have the regular tabs mixed with the private ones?

I doubt that this will ever be done; and if it is, it will have to be done by upstream Chromium.
The Private Window functionality in Vivaldi (and Chromium) is implemented by configuring a clean "Profile" (which includes the cookie jar) that is associated with the Private Window (or Private Windows opened from the same base Window) that you are browsing in.
It is not possible to have two different profiles in the same Window without massively rewriting the Chromium code (a process that will probably take months, or longer), rewrites that will then have to maintained (possibly rewritten from scratch again) to make sure they don't stop working, six times a year (for each Extended Stable Chromium major version release; a process that already takes 3+ weeks just to get it working properly again).
There is also the UI question: How do you separate a Private Tab from a Normal Tab? In the Private Window that is accomplished by have a completely different theme for the entire Window.
