Thanks for those helpful words added to this thread
Since Opera made the move to Chromium I have been using Vivaldi in parallel. It has it's problems too, but they listen to their users and beta testers. I still like Opera and would love to keep using it so I hope they get their "stable" release process straightened out. If I was really "done" I wouldn't take the time to post in these forums to try to get Opera to fix things ...

Thanks for posting this but it has already been mentioned numerous times. Also it only works 1 time -- once Opera updates you will need to do it again. However Opera has told me that they will have the flag to turn it off available in a soon future release (as well as a fix for the "O" menu rendering problem - finally!!)

Did the general post for 102 changelog get deleted? I had it in my opened tabs waiting for the fixes to come and now I'm getting a 404

It's the same link provided in this post

@sklunk I've been using Vivaldi for more than five years, but I gave up to use it as my standard browser a year ago instead of Opera.
I haven't got the same impression as you, actually. I like their ethos and their efforts with a rather small team, not backed by a big company. I trust them with their promise not to track their users and that they care about being transparent.
But in my opinion they keep adding feature after feature that only parts of their users have asked for. I didn't want e-mal and calendar functionality, no feed-reader, no timer, no "pause"-button. I don't even need a mastodon server of their own. Often it's all about features that their dedicated fan-base wants but not the regular user - to whom they don't listen.
I wished they had concentrated their efforts to make Vivaldi more streamlined, flawless and easy. And that they had developed an iOS version years before.
I've seen lots of complaints by people, even begging them: Please, make a light version! For those not wanting all those extra stuff.
That was one of the reason that I've changed to Opera mainly. That when I had all my customization with Vivaldi done, it very much looked like Opera out of the box. And I didn't have to fiddle so much with preferences and wasn't lost with so many options and even themes.
So, to me it's Opera first, still. And with an eye on Vivaldi to see where they're heading to. -
spike666 last edited by@celticcross I tried Vivaldi but I missed My Flow in Opera. People talk about a workaround but it's just a kluge.

@spike666 It has a notes-feature, that syncs between devices. Similar to Edge's collections features. That's handy, but as there's no stable iOS version yet, you need to have an Android handset.

@sklunk my pleasure. They listen to users in Vivaldi?
search how they couldn't make the sidebar autohide for years and a loooooooot of people wants it (including me). Like I said with sarcasm - good luck with your new browser. -

@hexangst I believe they really care about their users, but eventually it's only a very special breed, i.e. those that like to tinker and figure out. They've added so much features for alleged power user that it's difficult to show where Vivaldi stands out in respect to a browser for a more mainstream kind of user who simply wants to browse the web with some extras.
Thus these addressed users don't mind that much if its software has some kind of issues that they can fix by some tinkering.
There's also some appeal for those who were heavy users of Opera before the times it changed to Chromium. So you may find some nostalgic ring around it.
When they added the e-mail client I was aware that I'm not the user they intended to use Vivaldi, unfortunately. But still, it's way better than some other offerings around. -
