Sync custom Speed Dial thumbnails
-
@atlemo said in Sync custom Speed Dial thumbnails:
Hi folks, just to give you an update on this:
— We support thumbnail sync partially. The thumbnail status is synced (whether they are preloaded, autogenerated or custom). And the fingerprint of the custom thumbnails is synced. The final missing piece is server infrastructure to handle the actual bitmap data, which is in progress, but also part of a larger project so we are unable to give a good ETA as to when this will be 100% completed.Still hopeful for this. Even just the added option of having a direct image URL input would be great. Just having that as an option would be better for everybody. Less storage and resources for you, less time and less future issues for us, etc.

Is there any news? I'm so tired to reapply thumbnails on new PC or after some reinstalls.
-
What about to store links to images on image-hostings likes https://imgbb.com that will be a good solution to store and sync image thumbnails.
-
@TyrionLannister The easiest solution would be not to sync them at all and to load them from a folder outside Vivaldi, just like modifications work. Setting up another install would be a non‐issue. Right now I wouldn’t use custom thumbnails, not worth the effort.
-
But that feature needs to be here!

@TyrionLannister Please exercise patience. This topic is also marked with “pipline”. This means that this requested feature is on the Vivaldi team's to do list, but no release date has been set yet.
In addition, the Vivaldi team consists of only 57 employees. For example: Vivaldi fans waited a very long time for Vivaldi for iOS and asked for it many times, but it was finally released.

Maybe for the moment we don't need "server infrastructure to handle the actual bitmap data" yet.
Can we just set image URLs for the thumbnails instead?
-
Just want to add that this would be really nice to have, I've got several computers/laptops and then my phone and having to manually apply all those icons is a major PITA.
So +1 on this feature.
-
+1 for my vote on this.
