We will be doing maintenance work on Vivaldi Translate on the 11th of May starting at 03:00 (UTC) (see the time in your time zone).
Some downtime and service disruptions may be experienced.
Thanks in advance for your patience.
We’ve rolled out Two-Factor Authentication for Vivaldi accounts and a new reputation system for Vivaldi Webmail access.

Hello, is there a way to setup the security key as secondary 2FA method, as I'd rather have the App Authenticator method as primary method?
There doesn't seem to be a way to do it from the interface of the page where you define 2FA methods and Vivaldi's help page on 2FA doesn't mention any way to set the authenticator app as the primary method.
However, if you cancel the request for the security key you'll be asked for the alternative methods. Assuming you had already figured it out, then I'd suggest searching if someone has already requested for it and vote in that request (or create one of your own if none exists yet and leave the link here so those interested can go and vote for it
) -

Oh yes, clicking 'cancel' is the way to do it. Maybe I'll open a ticket to make it more obvious. Luckily you were there to help me

@cedricdes, being able to set the primary verification method is being worked on.

How long does it take to use Vivaldi Webmail.
I would like to ask how you judge spam? Why even ordinary users need to be implicated?
I just want a more reliable, stable, and secure email service for my work. Compared to now, I still like the previous Vivaldi Webmail. At least not so many strings attached. -
@wehhriuedgwe Vivaldi Webmail is still the same. Just a little higher bar to entry. No one can know you are an "ordinary user" until it is seen that you are an ordinary user.
As it stands, you (as this username) joined the community about an hour ago. Hang out a while, engage in some conversations with other users, blog if you want, use sync, in every other way take advantage of what the community has to offer, and after some time and experience you will find that Vivaldi Webmail is available to you.
And, by the way, spam is product promotion, self-promotion, useless and pointless off-topic comments and comments of the sort that really don't engage with other users at all. "Informational" comments on subjects no one ever asked about can also be spam.

@Ayespy Ordinary user reputation collecting request
Please like my post.Are changes still being made to the new rep system, changes that will or won't be publicly announced?
-
@Ayespy I understand, thank you.

Here's a quick way to stop the spammers. Disable access to IMAP, POP3, and SMTP. Once there was a time when this was needed back in the days of dial up because many needed a way to download their e-mails into a 3rd party program and then disconnect and release the phone line. But with broadband and 5G mobile phones now being the standard, most now have quicker access via webmail. Not to mention, webmail does have its advantages like being able to store your contacts in the cloud and not have to worry about losing them when your computer crashes, not to mention your calendar appointments. Not to mention, both Gmail and Outlook.com have task managers. Wish Vivaldi had a task manager, but I guess you can't have everything.

@robbiestewart89 There are any number of agencies, companies and jobs who must have permanent local copies of emails for legal reasons.

So, Vivaldi should offer a webmail service that Vivaldi's own email client wouldn't be able to connect to?
Not to mention, that automated software these days, would let scammers circumvent that and make it possible for them to do mass mailing using only the web interface anyway..I do like the concept of limiting some of the features rather than access to the whole service, though. Maybe a limit on the number of messages/recipients you could send per day, for example, until you gained enough reputation to use the service without any restrictions.

There is the task panel... Rather limited, but I guess you can't have everything (but I still think it falls under task the management category nevertheless)

I might of missed it here, but is there a way to see your reputation points?
Overall swell guy.
-
@m00t Open https://forum.vivaldi.net/me/ (is your forum profile).
-
@m00t
You can only see the reputation points you've received on the Forum (click the link @DoctorG shared
).
It's not possible to see the reputation points you've accumulated on all Vivaldi's services. -
@m00t
You can now create your own signature if you like.Dank an alle hier! Klasse Browser, tolles Forum.
GNU/Linux: 'Q4OS' / Debian 12 'Bookworm', Android 7 / Android 15 ('GrapheneOS', ein Segen! Aber nur für Google 'Pixel' Geräte z.Z. Ist schon irre, um Google loszuwerden)
Dabei seit dem alten Opera Presto. -
I still can't add my Vivaldi email on the browser and this is very sad. Can anyone from Vivaldi please help?

I checked your profile and noticed that your posts here are basically asking about Vivaldi webmail. Is there nothing else you'd like to know or share about Vivaldi? Are you here only to get access to webmail?
I would even dare say that's a spammer behavior :P, change your post's topic to something more alluring...Or (as @jane-n pointed out as this other thread), since usage of all Vivaldi services contribute for your reputation, why not login to Vivaldi Social, search for a subject you like (a hobby, your favorite sports team, you city) and comment some of the posts using your Vivaldi account on Mastodon?
I have no idea what the reputation algorithm takes into account, but at least you'd be using your Vivaldi account to something you like about and focus out from whining into not having access to that one single service out of many others...

@pauloaguia I don’t appreciate your idea of accusing me as a spammer which I am not and obviously I am here to ask about the webmail service since that what Vivaldi wants us to interact? As I said I am introvert and not really into sharing stuff online in this social media age with information being disclosed all the time so webmail is the only thing I would like to discuss about.
Also, to be fair I have no one to spam and I have my own hey.com premium email. I am here simply wanna try it as a new product and provide feedback which I did provide a lot to HEY email but like the OP said the Vivaldi webmail is the glitchiest ever so I am fine with or without having it but just not appreciate being accused of me being a spammer. It wouldn’t make sense to do all these things just to spam for a short time and get blocked. Common sense is not so common…

On that at least we can agree
As for the rest, I apologize for any unintended misinterpretation of my words, and I'll leave it to moderation to edit them out if needed.
But even after rereading them, I see no direct accusations there, only words of advice.
