I just tried this for the first time...

They really need to fix bookmarks. Importing them works, however if you try reordering them Vivaldi reverses the bookmark order and it becomes a pain in the rear getting them in the preferred order.

I hate their 64-bit build messing my 32-bit Chromium installation. Also its uninstall sucks.

They claimed that they have improved the tab performance and drawing vastly, you have to try that. Actually it is the first browser in which browser UI is drawn using HTML5 and Web technologies, next would be my guess "Servo" from Mozilla.

Did you try it ? :p  

To be honest, I was excited when I downloaded vivaldi, but when I opened it up for the first time, man that made me run away!

?

 

I use it as my main browser for a couple months now (cause ###### Opera :p) Performance is good for me, it has some issues here and there but there, like speeddial thumbnails not showing up but they have a new build every other week.  I wouldn't recommend for people till the beta comes out though

Yes, its nice browser in functionality wise and can be used as default browser though what makes me irritated that Vivaldi 64-bit caused Chromium 32-bit screwed up. Uninstall only removed Icon from desktop, all stuff remained there like garbage. It was really bad bug.

    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
