29.8.2022 03:20Comment on Vivaldi can’t help falling in love with you. by daletuckerIt looks nice. I'll have to wait a while, though, since the price is a little higher than I'd go at the moment.

1.6.2021 01:17Comment on Superfans start your engines! And bring Vivaldi along for the ride by lilmamachris35I agree, I would expect most people to be either a "light theme" or a "dark theme" person. I personally use dark theme all the time. Occasionally, for nostalgic reasons, I might use a lighter one, and try to make Vivaldi look like vintage non-evil Opera, but I'll very soon change it back. By and large it's dark theme whatever the time of day. I still wouldn't get rid of the feature though. I'd imagine it's pretty cool to sync the browser theme to your hue lighting or whatever. But generally, once you get a program "how you like it", you don't really want to keep changing it. Over in the Gecko/Quantum world, I've been using the same Firefox persona continuously since version 4 (Fall Foggy Forest by Madonna, if anyone's interested).

17.3.2021 15:46Comment on Quiz time! by torotimeI feel that most people are either solidly a dark theme person, or solidly a light theme person, and not many people enjoy both. I myself, while I like the idea of scheduled themes, couldn't stand to burn my eyes out with a light(ish) theme for most of the day.
13.3.2021 18:27Comment on Community Poll: Do you schedule browser themes? by thecultleader666I'll allow myself to repost here my message on the other topic : In my opinion, the 2 problems with "Delete browsing history in Vivaldi" are : 1) When you use the Session only option in the Settings, it will correctly purge the history but it will NOT purge the closed tab list. I suppose it's the same for the other options. 2) The first problem would be minimal except for this second one : The Clear browsing data tool can only purge the closed tab list with a 50% success rate (rough estimation). The Private window is not a relevant solution. One could want to beneficiate from all the history and closed tab options inside a specific session AND not want his data to migrate to another one when opening the browser again (that is the way I use Vivaldi).
6.3.2021 07:39Comment on Community Poll: How long do you save your browsing history for? by henriettI rarely use it. I never clear it, but I don't actually save it either.
5.3.2021 16:47Comment on Community Poll: How long do you save your browsing history for? by sgunhouseYes! By far the most common one is the drag-left to go back a page. I also will use drag-right (forward) and drag-down (new tab) occasionally.
