Close Pinned Tabs Directly in Vivaldi

[raalapas]

Hi Vivaldi Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I'm a big fan of the Vivaldi browser and all the unique features it offers. However, I wanted to suggest a small but impactful improvement that could enhance the user experience.

Currently, in Vivaldi, to close a pinned tab, we need to first unpin the tab, then close it by clicking the cross sign or using the right-click context menu. In other browsers like Chrome, Brave, and Firefox there's an option to close pinned tabs directly from the right-click context menu without the need to unpin them first.

Below are some screenshots of the same.

This feature is really helpful, especially for those of us who frequently use pinned tabs like me.

I believe adding a "Close Tab" or "Close" option to the right-click menu for pinned tabs would be a great addition. It would save time and improve the overall usability of the browser. I hope the team considers this suggestion for future updates.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication to making Vivaldi an amazing browser!

@raalapas There are two simple fixes:

Settings, Tabs, Pinned Tabs:

Close As Other Tabs

Or, create a command chain:

• Pin/Unpin Tab
• Close Tab

Then Settings, Appearance, Menu Customisation, and add the Command Chain to the Tab menu.
