Big Tech: "Introducing AI that can hallucinate answers to questions you didn't ask"
Vivaldi: "We made the most advanced tab multitasking system ever built”
Big Tech: "But AI is the future…."
Vivaldi: "Cool. Our future includes a browser the user controls, and it shipped today"
Big Tech: "You're missing the point…."
Vivaldi: "You're missing the download link"
Vivaldi 7.8. No bullshit. Just love for tabs and our users
https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-on-desktop-7-8/
@Vivaldi vertical, collapsible tab panel?
I keep checking, but not going to use it until that arrives.
@Vivaldi what will you do when Google removes XSLT support from Blink?
@Vivaldi is "AI" used when making Vivaldi?
@Vivaldi as a person who always recommends Vivaldi to friends wanting a better browser, I am wonder if the AI-hating niche is a good target for spreading Vivaldi to as many users as possible. 😅
I remember when you announced that Vivaldi would bypass the browser checks on Bing Copilot, that was very welcome news. More choice for people is always a good thing.
@Vivaldi I love this soooo much! Thank you!
@Vivaldi Wow, Vivaldi goes hard. I mean, I agree with them, but still...!
@Vivaldi You have to bring AI features at somepoint. AI is not bad
@Vivaldi This tab drag and drop is so useful, makes tilling so much faster! One off my new favourite features.
@Vivaldi Oh my god, am I dreaming? This snapping feature is just soooo good, only a day since the update and I can't stop using it
Thanks team
@Vivaldi I like this Browser
@Vivaldi
Love Vivaldi, just wish the mobile version was a little more feature rich.
@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.
@ElfDestruct
Please file a bug report on https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/. Thanks! 
@Vivaldi
After update niticed that news client is gone from left panel. Tried to add it again and nothing happened. When is hotfix?
In Settings > General > Productivity Features, do you have only Feeds enabled or Mail, Calendar and Feeds?
If only Feeds then opt temporarily for Mail, Calendar and Feeds.
AFAICT, the bug has been fixed already, but needs to go through its usual rounds of testing before it reaches stable.
@Vivaldi
You're awesome! Enabling mail made a trick for now. Thanks, stay cool 😎
@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 😀
@ami Let's do it! Feel free to share your feedback with us. :)
@Vivaldi just loaded it and going to give it a try, any tips for a new user?
@Vivaldi So much text in a single post!
@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@vivaldi.neti
I think this may be the longest toot on record. Can anyone verify?
Also, nice browser.
@patxi It wasn't supposed to be this way, it somehow fetched the whole federated blog instead of just showing the link preview 🥲 apologies!
@Vivaldi the new update is amazing! Thank you, team Vivaldi!
@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 :(
@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.
@Vivaldi
• Manifest V2 extensions won't work but Manifest V3 AI extensions will "Because Vivaldi is built using the Chromium web browser project, extensions available in the Chrome Web Store can also be installed in Vivaldi."
• if liked the Big Tech browser engine Chromium used by Chrome, Vivaldi, Edge, Brave, etc... that would be okay but I am de-googling so no Google Chromium based Vivaldi for me.
• if liked tabs, I guess Vivaldi would be cool, but I absolutely cannot stand tabs.
@Vivaldi It looks like you're doing great work. Now let's hurl some alt-text on those images so I can boost your posts.
"Outdated SEO tactics can't compete with AI-driven content optimization and technical superiority always wins."
@Vivaldi No offense, but this post actually breaks the official Mastodon client on iOS. Really annoying.
I think something about how it does link previews combined with the way you wrote the post on your website resulted in this outcome?
@Aradayn none taken, we're sorry and trying to figure out what happened, it was not meant to be shown this way.
@Vivaldi Hey, random question, can I sign into a Google workspace account on Vivaldi like I can with chrome?
I don't want to use chrome, but I do need to sign into all my Google Workspace apps for work...
Yes, you can.
@Vivaldi Wow what a massive load of spam in my feed. Scroll scroll scroll scroll, maybe it works nicely on your shit with social media shit baked in. Last time that's happening from this chrome based browser company, to the blocklist you go!
@Vivaldi
Get your Browser into f-droid, Uptodown seems shady and is full of ads.
Host an own repo if you don't want to be in the main repo, or ask @IzzyOnDroid
@Vivaldi OK, you sold me with the tab tiling feature. That's pretty fuckin' cool.
@Vivaldi on one hand - cool
On the other hand - this should've been link to blog, not short novel in my feed.
Less is often more.
@Vivaldi Happy release day. 🥳🎈🎉🎊
This update is a slap in the face for all AI-powered browsers. With it, VIVALDI is making a clear statement about its stance on AI and its rejection of it. This makes VIVALDI a beacon in the AI ocean.
Thank you for your great work, your passion for putting users first, and your fight for a better web. 
@Vivaldi such great new features, thanks to all contributors!
@Vivaldi Very muh looking forward to accessibility for this.
@Vivaldi Love the new ability to restrict my pinned tabs to their current domain. Bravo to the entire Vivaldi team 👏
@Vivaldi I get misunderstood by humans/they answer questions I didn't ask - all the time. I really don't need an AI doing the same thing. I like computers because they are easy to communicate with. I tell it what I want, I get it. End of story.
@Vivaldi your Browser ist greate! Thks for your work and progress !!! 👏
