What’s Vivaldi’s business model?

[DoctorG]

@mihail100 Pleas ask about issues at https://forum.vivaldi.net/category/2/support-troubleshooting

@doctorg sounds like a bot to me.

[Ayespy]

@npro Har har. Yeah, no.

[npro]

@ayespy said in What’s Vivaldi’s business model?:

Yeah, no.

I still don't believe that, it's so out of place and talking about robots and being sorry (and having just registered to say that as 1st post), that it can't be otherwise

[Ayespy]

@npro I am acquainted with DoctorG, who is not a new user, nor unfamiliar with certain members of the community. Real person. I guarantee you.

[npro]

@ayespy ok then

@mihail100 Just for the record, as much at would be cool with robot detection in Vivaldi we are not doing that. But I guess you just have to take my word for that (and a bunch of other things ).

@npro , https://www.avivadirectory.com/bethebot/

[npro]

@catweazle what's that... sounds... tempting!

[Catweazle]

@npro , it's very old already. You need to change https to http, and for example this forum block it (Cloudflare protection).
It is more of a curiosity than something useful, but not a bad idea.

@catweazle - just curious why it says "buscar" instead of "search" and the site is based/hosted in Germany?

[Catweazle]

@danielson , no idea

Thank you for sharing. I was always wondering how Vivaldi was generating an income. Good to know.

Very few sites don't work better than usual with Vivaldi, but maybe those sites want to intrude on me more than I want. Vivaldi is beautiful, fast, and comfortable. I recommend Vivaldi often to others. SandyR

Every time you search using one of the pre-installed search engines, you’re helping us grow, one search at a time. Currently, we work with DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, Startpage, Yahoo!, Bing, and Yandex.

Isn't Yandex not one of the default search options?

[Eggcorn]

@leo32345 My understanding is: That depends on what language you're using. The Russian-language Vivaldi has Yandex pre-installed, the English-language Vivaldi doesn't.

Everything mentioned above is good . But, Can we get a bigger storage for Webmail which is currently limited to 5Gbs.

[Catweazle]

@deepashkatal, although 5Gb is a good amount for normal use by most users and similar in other free mail services, it would be more appropriate to ask, if you can increase the space with a paid plan, since Vivaldi is a small cooperative and hosting space costs money.
