Vivaldi 4.0: Vivaldi Translate and betas of Vivaldi Mail, Calendar and Feed Reader are here
-
Please bring the calendar and mail features to android.

These articles should always list the full version number somewhere in the article itself. Even the changelog doesn't mention it. Not ideal for the historical record to say the least.

@jamesbeardmore As of Chromium 89, the minimum CPU requirements are processors that support SSE3. However, the underlying Chromium code may still be unhappy running on some older systems due to other hardware incompatibilities, even if the processer itself is still officially supported.
At some point, the Chromium team will make another bump to the minimum hardware requirements and that could spell the end for 32-bit x86 support.

@jamesbeardmore , 32bit is relative, although your computer uses 32-bit software, it doesn't necessarily mean your hardware is too, so I know, manufacturers stopped making 32bit CPUs in 2005.
I get what you're saying, but I know it's not 64-bit capable . It's an Intel Atom N270. That CPU was launched in 2008 and is most-definitely 32-bit. I even tried to boot a 64-bit kernel just in case. You get a funny message, something like "Cool OS, shame about the hardware though"!
I think Intel continued releasing new variants of the 32-bit Atom up to around 2011 but I don't know how soon afterwards they ceased production and how soon after that manufacturers stopped installing them in machines. I'm relying on that time-lag and the fact that there is a lot of old hardware in remote regions and poor areas, for 32-bit support for a year or so more.

Yes, that much I'd worked-out for myself. I was just hoping there's something like
$ vivaldi --dont-accelerate-anything --mode=dinosoar-hardware --i-dont-have-nvidia-or-ati --be-as-slow-as-pre-quantum-firefox --its-still-2005
I could run, to get around the "other hardware incompatibilities" (crashing when trying to see if hardware-acceleration is possible).
I might see if I can disable hardware-acceleration in a working V, and then copy the profile over so it hopefully never even tries to use it.

Vivaldi 4 The Win!

@jamesbeardmore I suppose you could try launching with switches such as
--disable-gpu --disable-gpu-compositing
-
@sjudenim: I see this regression too. The configuration, Themes > COLOR > Opacity > Enable Blur, is ignored
4.0.2312.24 (Stable channel) for Windows. -
@jon Is there any update regarding the separate feed reader interface?

@tarreas
I can confirm it. -
Great update it works great!!!!

@scottytrees: Hi, Google blocks logins from third party "untrusted" clients by default. It's their way to cripple the competition by letting the users jump through some loops. Here's a list of options to work with a Google account in Vivaldi: https://help.vivaldi.com/mail/mail-get-started/add-and-manage-mail-accounts/

Congratulations on the release, it looks fantastic, but I would love to see a version with the ability to turn tabs off. Other than that good browser.
-
@buzzb Uncheck "Show Tab Bar" in Tab settings, or from the View menu.
-
@stevekong Thank you, I found a link from your link that took me to my Google settings to allow "less secure" apps access and got Mail and Calendar up and running, thanks brother.
-
Something has been changed that breaks the ability to use CSS to move the tab bar to where it belongs, under the address bar. Obviously making it an option would be ideal, but if not, can we please at least make it possible to customise, the way we have been able to up to this point.
It's one of the main reason Vivaldi is my main browser, and while I know I'm only one user, it is very likely to drive me away if it can't be fixed.
-
@xyzzy Cheers for that, but it appears to simply show or hide the tabs. I'd like all tabs to open in a new window. i.e. no tabs to show or hide.
-
@buzzb Non-tabbed browsing is not available in Vivaldi.
-
@ayespy Thanks, a real pity, other than that it's a great browser.

@Nekomajin , we do have a feed panel at this time. Feel free to suggest improvements. We do plan to offer a feed manager page in the future as well.
