New Update Vivaldi Desktop Releases

JaneN said:
@oldschool, if you're not using Vivaldi yourself, I definitely recommend giving it a try. Especially after yesterday's update which addresses a frequent complaint with speed users had. 😉 And if you have any questions let me know.

I tried it once again and indeed its speed is good, however trying to set up Vivaldi to my liking was a huge bust. Too many features, cumbersome settings. The virtual fusion of Firefox customization options and chromium settings is so jumbled that initial setup is not familiar to anyone who uses both FF and chromium variants, e.g. adding custom theme wouldn't work, extensions, etc. Some things that are simple in those browsers aren't in Vivaldi. No wonder Vivaldi has its own Help pages. It needs them. I've tried V several times and it's just not for me.

Is it possible to drag or move extensions in Vivaldi, similar to Chrome or Edge? It appears this feature is not yet available in Vivaldi.

Confirmed that doesn't work by design since a long time. I have my own solution to install my favorite browser extension after each other in the order how do you like...

But maybe @JaneN would report this as feature request to developers of Vivaldi, let's see ;)

I turn off the extensions, then restart Vivaldi. After that, I turn on the extensions in the order I prefer. How do you do it?

Vivaldi Stable 6.5.3206.39
We are ringing in the Holidays with a powerful version of Vivaldi wrapped up with new features and improvements you’ll love.

In our latest version, we are introducing the Sessions Panel, a new panel on the sidebar for managing saved sessions – your collections of organized tabs. With the Sessions Panel, you can view, reopen, and even edit your Sessions.

Our Sync (encrypted) functionality now makes your complete browsing history available on all your devices.

From this update onwards, you can find and open your synced tabs from the Address Field or Windows Panel on your current device.

Furthermore, you no longer need to manually move and organize tabs into the desired Workspace. The new Workspace Rules automatically moves tabs to a predefined Workspace based on your easy-to-configure rulesets.

Additionally, there’s a new option to the built-in Notes that helps you add more text to an existing note.
