We've asked about this many times before, but our new guy @oskar is curious about what everyone's favourite features are (...and since we don't track user behaviour, asking you is the only way for us to get this insight).

@Vivaldi @oskar 1. No AI 2. No AI 3. No AI 4. No AI 5. No AI . Workspaces and hibernating tabs are good too.

@Vivaldi @oskar for me, it's the notes function. Hands down.

[murdoc@autistics.life]

@Vivaldi @oskar
- notes, I use them for so many things
- everything about tabs
- the mail client
- all the customizability
- the great context menu

@Vivaldi @oskar

1. Being European
2. Built in ad blocking
3. All the controls
4. No AI
5. Good tab syncing

[laurikuparinen@mastodon.social]

@Vivaldi @oskar I don't have a top 5, but I really find workspaces to be useful and the ability to group tabs as subtabs (or whatever you call it) has been really helpful in few cases.

[cowman@thecanadian.social]

@Vivaldi @oskar
1. Seperate search and address bar, where address bar does only address things
2. Side tabs
3. Mouse gestures
4. AI Free
5. UBlock

Miss private tabs

Keep up the good work

[birkettm@mastodon.social]

@Vivaldi @oskar being not us tech

[tchambers@indieweb.social]

@Vivaldi @oskar Your configurablity and that almost every UX element can be tweaked is huge. I find I use your RSS reader far more than I expected too. On mobile your clean text only mode works great. Pinned tabs also are something I use daily....

[mxalba@blahaj.zone]

@Vivaldi@vivaldi.net @oskar@social.vivaldi.net

1) not "big tech"
2) European
3) Nested tabs
4) Chrome plugin support
5) windowed tabs

The one big thing I'm dearly missing though is containers so I can sandbox various accounts to only sites where I absolutely need them...

[fablog@mastodon.social]

@Vivaldi @oskar
- tab tiling
- included E-Mail-Client
- focus on privacy
- synching bookmarks and settings
- independence of big tech

[catweazle@social.vivaldi.net]

@Vivaldi @oskar,
. It's European
- Company ethics
- The community
- U can set it to the milimetre to my like
- Privacy

[vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net]

@TheLastOfHisName @oskar wow that's very specific!

[fonant@social.vivaldi.net]

@Vivaldi @oskar Mail!

[evehaswords@toot.cat]

@Vivaldi @oskar Saved Sessions and tiling tabs are my two favorites. Being able to right-click on a selection of tabs and copy their URLs is another.

[dramatispaws@toot.wales]

@Vivaldi @oskar
In no particulat order: side tabs, tab tiling, workspaces, no AI, being asked what we like!

[gumbario@mastodon.social]

@Vivaldi @oskar 1. Compact mode because my mouse is a pixel-precise pointing device. I don’t need spacing like on a tablet.
2. Compact mode because I want as much information on my screen as possible without wasting space on unnecessary UI spacing.
3. Compact mode because the softwares UI shouldn’t dominate the website’s content.
4. Compact mode because too much empty space between UI elements drives me crazy.
5. Compact mode because I hate having to scroll through my bookmark folders.
