So I've discovered another neat feature of the #Vivaldi browser; Workspaces. It allows you to stay organized without cluttering up your desktop with multiple windows, each with their own set of tabs. Basically I can have a "tech news" workspace where I have news and social media all tiled. I can also have a workspace with its own, different set of tabs. Each workspace stays running in the background and you swap between them with the workspaces button. Kinda like windows within a window.
Around this time, a year ago, I started using @Vivaldi as main browser on my work computer. The tiling tabs and web panels are very convenient for daily tasks. Too bad about the code analysis of websites, which I prefer the way Firefox handles it, but it's legacy of Chromium. Since I work on web design I have to use at least two browsers anyway, so this is a minimal problem.
Been giving the #Vivaldi browser another try and one of its coolest features is the ability to tile multiple tabs in a single window. This makes it easier for me to share news across multiple social networks at the same time.
@cliffwade@mastohost@Vivaldi@marialeal Yes! 👏🏼 Hugo and Mastohost have been so great for us. They are truly the best place to go if you’re looking to spin up a Mastodon instance with minimal effort.
I've recently become an ambassador for @Vivaldi. I can't wait to get started with events and all that, and just working together with all the other ambassadors!
Considering that my followers are mostly Linux, specifically Xfce folks, you'll love all the features and customization options. It also lacks all the AI, crypto, and tracking nonsense you try to avoid.
✨ One #Vivaldi gripe is that I can never remember how to rearrange the icons in my extension panel. They rarely change order, but every once in a while, I need to re-install an extension, and all ordering hell breaks loose.
Turns out, you have to hold down the ⌘ key, then click and drag on the extension icon before letting go of the ⌘ key and then your mouse button.
@cliffwade@Vivaldi@marialeal It was a great meeting indeed. Thanks Maria for having us, and looking forward to contributing to the growth and future of Vivaldi!
I forgot to post about this yesterday, though not surprising due to how extremely busy work has been with the Play Store release of Nova 8.
I applied for the Vivaldi Sopranos program and it looks like I've been accepted. I'll have some accounts setup on Monday for me so I'll be able to dive in head first and see what all is going on.
That means I'm now an Ambassador and a Soprano for @Vivaldi which is pretty exciting!
On the latest update on Vivaldi 6.7, we've amped up Translate, improved the Tracker and Ad blocker functionality, tweaked the Bookmarks manager, and many other features based on YOUR feedback.
🔖 We understand that Bookmarks are one of the most important aspects of your browsing. Now, Vivaldi remembers the last folder you opened in the Bookmarks Panel. We've also tidied up your bookmarks by sorting folders first, making navigation a breeze.
⚙️ We work with Lingvanex continuously to make the built-in Vivaldi Translate more efficient. With an improved performance and the quality of translations, we hope you'll find speedy results.
In addition to the above, we’ve polished the user interface and made improvements to features across the board.
Find out what they are and enjoy browsing with more of these powerful browser features👇🏻
Trying to set up Kagi.com as default search engine in Vivaldi. Pasted in the session link from Kagi in the search settings of Vivaldi but whenever I type in Vivaldi’s search field or search (Ctrl + T and term) I’m just redirected to Kagi.com, no search results show up? #kagi#search#vivaldi
Ik vind dit echt een triestig schouwspel. Eén van onze zogenaamde beste politici van deze generatie die niet verder komt dan telkens maar de schuld bij anderen leggen, anderen schofferen, anderen belachelijk maken of kleineren … en zo iemand moet dan een coalitie vormen?
I guess it is a question of learning a few of the tricks. Some suggestions:
Only show direct mails in the unread folder. Hide custom folders and mailing lists.
Move important mailing lists into the important folder. Close the other folder and only click the parent folder to see what is inside.
Learn to use the view toggles. Use different settings for different folders, depending on what makes sense. I often hide unread mails to only show new ones, for example.
Use keyboard shortcuts, such as T to view a thread and E to view the contact.
Undo is your friend. If you mark a mail as read, use Undo to bring it back.
Personally I queue mails for later sending. I guess it is old school undo sending mail...
Prefetch all mails. That means all the mail gets indexed.
Search is a function you should expect to use a lot. It is fast. Thus you can spend less time organizing your mail.
@jon I tried setting up Vivaldi Calendar yesterday. It seemed to recognize all of my CalDav events fine. The problem is that it does not seem to sync events back.
So now I created a few events that do not reflect in my web calendar nor on my phone. 😢
I have been building browsers for 30 years now. First Opera and now Vivaldi. My estimate is that more than 1 billion have used one of my browsers or both. Have you?
