Multi-Account Containers

@locutusofborg it may be a solid privacy approach that could be enabled, while perhaps taking some management.
Containers being included as feature is a solid addition for sure, that should be a priority and could be in combination with my suggestion.
Some users go so far as to use additional privacy extensions for enforced HTTPS, blocking social elements and ads, blocking scripting and various other elements, in addition to the privacy settings with Vivaldi.

Again simply NO to having containers active upon launching the browser. YES to having a button to start a container. As for what peeps do to protect their privacy I'm well aware cause I go out of my way to protect mine. That said I added and Implemented most of the protections. The ones I didn't I still have control over.

I'm said to say, that this feature is sitting around for four years and is tagged "nice to have" is very disappointing. Being somewhat in control over which sites may share what data should be much, much higher priority in a browser in this day and age.

@jfinkhaeuser It's also the feature request with the most replies, showing there's a massive interest with Vivaldi users. I understand it's hard to develop such a feature, but I think Vivaldi users would agree they'd rather be patient and eventually get this feature than not getting it at all.

I think it would also be a giant step for Vivaldi to further improve the privacy aspect of the browser and maybe even be known as a more 'privacy-focused' browser, similar to Brave.

@jfinkhaeuser There are still some old feature requests outstanding from the first launch of this browser. The number of votes does not mean much. It is more a question of how hard something is to do.

@moosmas Given that Brave has had a major privacy debacle on its hand with its crypto strategy, I would say that Vivaldi is already the more privacy friendly browser. It could just use this extra feature very much, too.

@Pesala Fair. Let me rephrase: I have no visibility into what the company intends to do here. That's completely fine for a young or unimportant issue. Something as major as this could use more attention in how things are communicated, too. My two cents, of course.

MoosMas

True, but Brave is still considered one of the best, if not the best privacy-focused browsers. I must say the tracker blocking is more advanced in Brave and would love to see more extensive blocking in Vivaldi.

Yes, i believe that there's actually several Brave employees who think so. They still have high hopes of attaining double-digits, soonish...

Hi everyone. Can you implement this mode method with incognito in Vivaldi. Multilogin Tab

jumpsq

I suppose this is a duplicate of this?!

Interesting that there are chromium implementations!

I told everyone that Brave wasn't to be trusted in any way, shape, or form. Love seeing them screw up even further.

@jumpsq They are alike but it is not same. This is work with incognito mode. This is Cent Browser.

I feel like it would be good to create a global change.org petition to rename it as Foolish.

Humor isn't your strong suite. With everything that's going on and to even to joke about wasting a resource like change.org isn't funny.

This really has been one of the things that kept me on Firefox as daily driver. I think the impending death of Firefox is going to force me to Vivaldi anyway, but I do have concerns about the lack of containers (and major worries about how Vivaldi will handle Manifest V3..)

OMZ, you're right, dear kettle! I feel so... Foolish for completely forgetting about the devastating global bits shortage extant. Thank Zarquon for your sterling fortitude in pointing out my error, Shirley.

@mak0013 Before making a request, please take note of the Feature Request forum category rules:

Search to make sure the feature you have in mind hasn’t been requested already.
Upvote features you like.
If a feature hasn’t been requested, start a new topic. Post only one feature request per topic.
Choose a clear and concise title for the topic and describe the feature in more detail in the body of the post.

The video you posted isn't showing anything specific, and the post doesn't explain how this feature works - nor how is it different from the multi-account containers feature request mentioned above. 🤔

@moosmas
It would be nice and it would definitely bring Vivaldi one step closer to the attention of more people as it would be "built-in" or better said, nicely presented to the end user with ease of access.

The adblocker is already built in. All that is missing is having that, as well as, per side javascript blocking. This can be built right on the url-bar Lock-icon right-click site permissions panel.

i cant figure out how to vote on this forum site, but this is a feature that no other browser but Firefox had implemented in a usefull way. If you want to look at how good can this be implemented you can check this screenshot that shows how Multi Account Containers and Vertical Tabs can make a huge step forward in a workflow
Each Container can hold multiple tabs inside that can make working, browsing and buying more usefull and secure.
