Do you use the vivaldi.social shortlink?
-
Vivaldi Social users! How do you access the site? Iโm just curios if people type vivaldi.social, the long-domain, or something else to access the service.

@daniel on Android I just put the standard bookmark on my speed dial https://vivaldi.com/bk/sd-social, and on the desktop I replaced the web panel with a custom button that opens https://social.vivaldi.net/home as a new tab (I don't use the bookmarks bar so I abuse the panel bar with custom buttons for a couple of bookmarks mixed in with actual panels)

I type

Huh, didn't even know that existed. I was always using social.vivaldi.net since that's what I saw in the address bar whenever I was on the home server.
I don't need it for the address bar since I always restore my last session with a lot of tab stacks staying the same, and V.S. is now a permanent presence for me, but I will start using it in those annoying moments when I've opened some post on its original server and then I decide to reply/favorite/boost and suddenly get the popup about switching back to my home server (will Mastodon ever fix it so this happens somehow more seamlessly?).

@daniel I let my Butler type the address
-
@luetage Yes, you're right, leave it to Jeeves.

Here I am, I thought I new everything :sigh. O well...
I guess I am old school. I typed out " https://social.vivaldi.net/ " for a Speed Dial shortcut.
I might take the time to create a Keyboard shortcut (I created, therefore I know where I'm going (hopefully )).
I even use a URL preview extension as I don't know were those shortened URLs are taking me. If it appears as a valid site I will use that to expand that to a full URL... But here I am, getting off topic. -
@daniel, I don't use Social networks on mobile, bad for muy old eyes with a small screen, but I use it in full view on desktop, accesing it with a Bookmark, same as the Forum.

@daniel I use the standard bookmark https://vivaldi.com/bk/sd-social
Never knew that there is a Vivaldi domain vivaldi.social. -
@daniel
Speaking-of, if you want this shortlink to be the better-known version of how to get to Vivaldi Social, maybe it's worth contacting whoever's maintaining the servers directory at https://joinmastodon.org/servers to tell them to replace it? Still says social.vivaldi.net on there. -
@daniel I access it using the Vivaldi Social tile on the Start Page.
-
@zir4n vivaldi.social redirects to social.vivaldi.net

This post is deleted! -
@daniel Sometimes I use vivaldi.social othertimes I use social.vivaldi.net I just type what comes to mind. I need to setup my Speed dial to let me access things quicker.
-
No. Neither one nor the other.
I prefer phanpy-social and elk-zone, popular web clients for mastodon. They are made more interesting than the standard mastodon. And phanpy is also very aesthetically pleasing.And of course, I don't type the address manually, I use speeddial.

I have it in a pinned tab, so I don't type it. I guess if I had to I would use social.vivaldi.net because that is, if I understand correctly, the 'canonical' url
-
I have shortcut for https://social.vivaldi.net/ so I use that.
