@Vivaldi Really thinking about switching to Vivaldi now as this is a feature I wanted for years already.. But I dont really want to give Google a complete monopoly on their rendering engine

@mmphosis @Vivaldi
So, Vivaldi is not for you. But the , why are you commenting? Find a browser that is for you, and go comment on there instead.

@leeloo @Vivaldi Vivaldi could be for me. I am commenting here because the web browser for me does not exist. Allow Manifest V2 extensions; use a different browser engine like Servo, LibWeb, or build your own; and if Vivaldi was truly customizable I could turn off tabs amongst other features.

@Vivaldi the new update is amazing! Thank you, team Vivaldi!

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.neti
I think this may be the longest toot on record. Can anyone verify?
Also, nice browser.

[moosader@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@Vivaldi I want to retoot this but the quote toot within is so long

[leeloo@chaosfem.tw]

@mmphosis @Vivaldi
Vivaldi allows manifest V2 extensions, but they don't have the manpower to keep them working once upstream removes the code.

The tab bar can be turned off.

Using a different browser engine basically means a different browser, so if that's a requirement, then no, Vivaldi is not for you. As for building their own browser engine, again, they don't have the manpower.

You could try building your own browser - you're probably the same number of developers short of having the manpower to pull it off as they are.

@Vivaldi As mentioned in your post, the previous implementation of Pinned Tabs never made sense to me. Restricting the pinned tab to a particular domain is a good step. However, I would like to see a keyboard shortcut that returns the pinned tab to the original pinned URL. Dia offers that option.

@Vivaldi So much text in a single post!

[bwacton@mastodon.social]

@Vivaldi just loaded it and going to give it a try, any tips for a new user?

@Vivaldi I love this!️

@Vivaldi
Sigh, it seems like I'm back where I started.
I used the Opera browser for years when first coming to Linux. I just managed to pay to remove the nag banner before It went free
Then when it became just another chrome clone I switched to #Firefox, but given the latest "We heard you and we don't give a shit; here's some more AI" it seems I'll be giving #Vivaldi a try.
I have also been switching to #LibreWolf. Let's do a real A-B test

@Vivaldi New tab features for everyone else, but not for me... try to drag a tab to tile it on a touchscreen and boom the browser locks for about 60 seconds, then just puts it in a new window once it unlocks.

@Vivaldi
Love Vivaldi, just wish the mobile version was a little more feature rich.

[leeloo@chaosfem.tw]

@lebochequirit @Vivaldi @IzzyOnDroid
Until someone manages to convince them to build their own f-droid repo, Obtanium can install Vivaldi directly from vivaldi.com.

[aasengaare@social.vivaldi.net]

@Vivaldi I like this Browser

@ami Let's do it! Feel free to share your feedback with us.

@Moosader I know, it wasn't our intention, it somehow fetched the whole federated blog instead of just showing the link preview 🥲 sorry!

[vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net]

@patxi It wasn't supposed to be this way, it somehow fetched the whole federated blog instead of just showing the link preview 🥲 apologies!

@BafDyce we understand the dilemma, our team is still upset about the demise of the Presto engine, but we eventually had to choose what was best for our browser given the size of the team and the compatibility issues given the state of the internet. We contribute to the improvement of the web in as many ways as we can, but creating a browser engine from scratch was just not a viable option.
