Software-update: Vivaldi 6.5

Vivaldi logo (75 pix) Versie 6.5 van de webbrowser Vivaldi is uitgekomen. Vivaldi is een webbrowser die wordt ontwikkeld door voormalige werknemers van Opera. Hij richt zich voornamelijk op powerusers en gebruikers van Opera voor de overstap op Chromium, hoewel ook deze browser daarop is gebaseerd. Vivaldi heeft uitgebreide mogelijkheden, zoals mousegestures, stapelen van tabbladen, uitgebreide keyboardshortcuts en het maken van aantekeningen op webpagina's. De browser is gratis en wordt voor Windows, Linux, macOS en Android ontwikkeld, en tegenwoordig ook voor iOS. De releasenotes voor deze uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.

Introducing the Sessions Panel

Sessions are a way for you to store your open tabs and start over with a clean slate — freeing up memory and resources on your computer. A Session can contain tabs from a single window, all your windows, and optionally your Workspaces too. The Sessions Panel is a new side panel for managing your Sessions. This top-requested feature, lets you quickly manage, create, and reopen your saved Sessions. You can view, rename, and edit the contents of the saved Sessions to selectively reopen some tabs in your current Session. You can also enable Automatic Session Backup from the bottom of the panel. Session Backups are created automatically once every hour for up to 30 days and they contain a snapshot of all your open tabs. Or you can manually save any session at any time at your convenience.

Vivaldi now syncs your full browser history (encrypted, of course!)

New in this release, Vivaldi Sync makes your complete browsing history — the list of web pages you’ve visited — available across all your devices. Never lose that article you read on the bus or that recipe you discovered on your tablet again! Vivaldi Sync used to synchronize your typed history, the searches, and the addresses you typed into the Address Field. The old system was useful for rediscovering webpages and searches you had typed in. However, it was no help when you wanted to rediscover anything you had stumbled upon on another device earlier in the day. In addition to full browsing history, Vivaldi Sync keeps your Bookmarks, saved passwords, open tabs, Reading List, Notes, and some settings such as search engines in sync — no matter which device you are using. All your data is end-to-end encrypted between your devices. We cannot read it on our servers – only you can access your data! We don’t profile or sell your information to advertisers because privacy is our top priority

Synced Tabs are available from the Address Field and Windows Panel

Previously, your synced tabs could only be accessed from the cloud icon on the Tab Bar. Now, you can search through your synced open tabs coming from any device. You can find and filter these open synced tabs in the Address Field. We have prioritized matching against tabs – titles and URLs – that are currently open on your other devices (such as an iPhone, iPad, Android device, or even a car). For example, you want to buy that ugly Christmas sweater or re-read that news story you found on your phone earlier in the day. Now, you can locate tabs that are open on other devices by searching for them in the Address Field on your current device. We have also added synced tabs to the Windows Panel. The Windows Panel lets you see and filter all your tabs from all your Windows and Workspaces.

Workspaces Rules organizes your tabs automatically

Workspaces are a way to organize your tabs where you can keep different tabs in different Workspaces, based on a topic or category. You might, for example, have a workspace for work, another for sports, and a third for travel. Now, we have added automation to Workspaces. What if you accidentally opened a “work” tab inside your “travel” Workspace? Workspace Rules will clean up your tabs automatically by moving the tab into the correct Workspace for you. You no longer need to take the time to manually switch to the correct Workspace. For example, if you go to Amazon to shop for holiday gifts, the webpage will be moved to your shopping workspace. Similarly, all your travel-related webpages will end up in your “travel” workspace. You can set up your rules in Settings > Tabs > Workspaces. Quick tip: Workspaces together with Tab Stacks brings a two-level grouping of tabs that is unique that no other browser offers.

Improved Notes

Unique to Vivaldi, Notes is available across desktop, mobile, and in cars, meaning that you can check and edit your notes at any time and even sync them between devices. Previously, you could select a text on a page and create a new note with that text. But when you research over multiple websites you might find interesting text on several of them related to one note topic. Now there is a new option “append to note” that will add the text to the end of a note you created in the past. For example, all your different gingerbread recipes from around the world can be in the same note with the help of the “Append to Note” option.

Vind Vivaldi een zeer fijne browser mijn veel mogelijkheden. Voor mij is het alleen jammer dat de browser gevoelsmatig steeds trager wordt hoe langer ik deze gebruik.
Wis een keer de cache van Vivaldi en kijkt of dat helpt.

Volgende stap is het aanmaken van een Gast profiel en kijk of de performance beter is. Vanaf dat punt kun je verder kijken. Begin met extensies uit te schakelen en ze één voor één weer in te schakelen. Eventueel kun je met een schoon profiel beginnen.
Ik was groot fan van de browser, totdat deze van de een op de andere dag, ergens in september, niet meer werkte op MacOS. Eerste advies was je user preferences weg te gooien, wat geen oplossing bleek te zijn.
Dus: alles kwijt, of in ieder geval onbereikbaar. Sindsdien is het nog steeds niet gefixt, zelfs na 6 pagina's aan klachten op het Vivaldi-forum: https://forum.vivaldi.net...led-to-launch-on-macos-14

Sindsdien weer terug bij Chrome wat best vies voelt, maar tenminste niet van de een op de andere dag stopt met werken.
Ze zijn zo te zien in de tread wel druk bezig om te achterhalen, waar het probleem zit, met vragen van hun engineers om logs/debug etc. Ze doen er dus alles aan wat je van een klein bedrijf ! met beperkte middelen mag verwachten.
Ze weten toch wel aardig wat dingen toe te voegen wat toch aardig wat waarde kan bieden bij het browsen, ook al gebruik ik zelf niet alles.

Op dit item kan niet meer gereageerd worden.
