Three Cheers to Vivaldi 3.4: a powerful and fun version arrives
-
@triumph have you voted for the feature request yet? That's how you show your support and how user demand is measured. Nobody is sifting through all the threads, reading every post, and creating a deduplicated tally of how many people want something. If you want to help prioritize that feature, you gotta vote for the feature request.

Are there plans to add a master password to Vivaldi? What's the guarantee my passwords are safe with Vivaldi if I start to sync my account or even otherewise?

If you use sync then in effect you do have a master password - which Vivaldi team can never access - since all your data is stored using an additional encryption password. In this case, someone would need to know your Vivaldi username, password and encryption password to get access online, or your OS username and password to get access locally.

I was wondering if you're gonna add in the feature the ability of customizing links/picture context menus.
Will it arrive in the future? -
@puppyeyes That's on the drawing board.
-
@priest72: I wonder how time and effort was spent on it, and how much space it takes up uncompressed. Screams BLOAT to me.
-
@rluik: Ah, thanks. It looked so... Fischer-Price with the huge setting set.
-
@Vakkotaur No time was spent on it, as it was built by an outside company. It occupies just a few meg. "Bloat" is a meaningless condemnatory term.
-
@bonetone: I've added a message to the thread which was already opened. Thanks for your support!
-
@ayespy: "A few meg"... oy
-
@Vakkotaur uninflated it appears to be about 2MB. Inflated, I can't tell, as there's too much other stuff in my profile - and I don't have an earlier version handy.
-
And the tab bug is still not fixed for Xfce
-
@Vakkotaur updating from ver 3.1 Stable on one of my laptops to ver 3.4 Stable seems to have added about 18 MB to to total folder size. Went from 526 MB to 544 MB.
-
@ayespy: I quite understand new genuine features will almost always increase memory (storage) footprint. This just, well, yeah I am an ancient creature who knows from direct experience of hand optimizing to make things even fit at all. Yes, I've done embedded. Sure, it's a bit different today, but, well, it just seems sinful to add things that provide ZERO gain in actual utility/performance. (I think the Hue stuff is quite silly, and not for me, but somehow it doesn't scream wrongness at me. Games in other things do. "All programs will increase in size/complexity until they can read e-mail" has become "All programs will increase in size/complexity until they include a game." And sure it was an outside thing, but we get a freaking game BEFORE the more useful?!? I'll actually give Firefox something of a pass on THIS one, as they kept it simple with Pong... which, well, 1972: It had be truly small.)

Will the browser be optimized because it consumes a lot of resources and a heavy interface?
Will there be a design change?Actually it's not resource intensive, nor is the interface "heavy".
-
@3von3: See, now THIS while being admittedly of quite limited use, WOULD have some real utility!
-
@pesala: Please tell us that the Page Actions will eventually be something that can be re-ordered so that the two I find truly useful can be made to be more easily found with less travel... if they cannot be properly made true key-board shortcuts (or even button-ized for instant access).
-
@Vakkotaur The Page Actions are sorted. Rename them so that the ones you need are listed first. Delete any that you never use. The edits will be lost on updating Vivaldi.

@pesala: WHERE is this option? I look, and it is simply NOT THERE.
