Use Chrome Web Store extensions in Vivaldi browser
-
The Chrome Web Store boasts thousands of extensions. Guess what, they also work in Vivaldi!

chrome extension store sucks though. Its difficult to search for the extension you want. They don't filter by most downloads, most recent updates, most high rated, most popoular etc
-
Still hoping these extension are built into vivaldi so I don't need to download these.
rrs reader
close duplicate tab
Recursive Bookmark sorter -
@archive1:Try out, nevertheless, sometimes this extension, this is a very extensive reader RSS

Don't forget to check out the Extensions Forum here for recommendations, problem solving, etc.

Not a recursive sorter but a sorter. -
@stardepp: this is actually a very good rss reader. See what I mean whenI said chrome extension store sucks. I didn't find this when I was searching for rss reader and I tried many different rss readers to see which one I like and I didn't see this one

"Some can turn out to be malicious or buggy." Or not work at all as third party developers will not support anything but Chrome (i.e. IBM Security Rapport) what my banking establishment wants me to use.
I have written the IBM Security Rapport support site several times but they just tell me to use a browser on their "Supported List". -
thousands of severely limited extensions, even WE API is less crippled (though still next to useless)
-
@stardepp: it's big but lacks one very basic thing: middle clicking on a title in article list to open in new tab... actually some views even have this but still dev implies it's impossible to do, that's why I had to fork SmartRSS
due to google shenanigans I'm unable to post it in chrome store and to make it even more funny chropera fails to moderate my submission for idk, like 10 weeks now? or even more -
Does Vivaldi update extensions automatically?

I would blame them more than IBM who have just provided an extension for a browser.

@sdtbluethink If they are from the Chrome store: Yes.

It is IBMs fault because for some it doesn't even work in Chrome, probably the associated software is c**p.
bug logging monkey
How to write good bug reports -
All I have to say regarding this article: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/32303/better-extension-support-in-vivaldi
-
Installing extensions manually (dragging .crx file onto the extension page) doesn't work, even if I pack it using Vivaldi.
-
@thomassawyer Enable developer mode, I just tried ScriptJaeger from its github
https://github.com/An-dz/ScriptJaeger/releases/tag/v0.5.1
and it's installed. I manually update several of my extensions weekly and it's working for me. I'm using Vivaldi 2.5.1525.4, you? -
@mossman I think you missed the point,
It is not the bank, it is the extension developer that will only develop for IE/Edge, Firefox, and specifically Chrome. -
@zakius: There are many smartrss clones on chrome store, but they all lack certain features or buggy so I didn't like them
-
@zakius: try zebra rss
I think Zebra Rss and Feedbro are the only good RSS reader on chrome store right now
