I wish I could have used Presto, but sadly that is not an option. The Presto code was much better in many ways that both Gecko and Blink. It was all in one. Very little 3rd party code. It compiled in a couple of minutes on a slow computer.

At this time the Chromium codebase is the best available.

Clearly there is a lot more to a browser than just the core and we modify the core as needed as well, so I hope you see we are providing something special here.

@fluchtkapsel

Indeed, we are using Chromium, but there really is not a lot of choice. I hope you will make the switch. If you liked Opera 12, you will love Vivaldi.

@tedel@writing.exchange

Thanks for your kind words. Did you try Workspaces in Vivaldi as well? Quick commands? The searchable Window panel?

@claridelune@vivaldi.net , glad you like it!

@cassolotl@eldritch.cafe

Have your tried tab stacks and workspaces in Vivaldi?

@VileLasagna@mastodon.gamedev.place

We will do our best to keep you happy. We will not least continue to improve our ad blocker.

@darthkielbasa@vivaldi.net , thanks for your support!

@Mossheart@lemmy.ca

Glad to hear that. Thanks for your support.

Have you tried looking at the Windows panel? You can sort tabs there. The search there is pretty helpful as well.

We continue to work on the ad blocker. It will continue to improve.

@schnedan ,

We have found that having things integrated has significant benefits, but of course there is a bit of getting used to. Give it a try!

As a side note, it is easy to run multiple instances of Vivaldi, so you can run Mail, Calendar and Feeds in one instance and most of your Web browsing in another. There is flexibility here.

@geillescas@techhub.social , I have not tried them, but it looks like they have taken some inspiration from Vivaldi. Even marketing.

@p4@masto.ai , I am very proud of what we built at Opera at that time, but you will find that and more in Vivaldi now.
