Vivaldi's massive update brings tab management and a refreshed UI to its privacy-focused browserVivaldi browser - a brainchild of Opera's co-founder Jon von Tetzchner - has launched its first major upgrade since its initial release in 2016. The company claims that Vivaldi 2.0 has more than 1,500 improvements over the first version. These include encrypted data sync, extensive tab management, and a customizable user interface.

A Year Ago I Ditched Chrome For Vivaldi and Never Looked BackGoogle's Chrome is the world's most popular web browser, but that doesn't mean it's the best. At ten years old, Chrome has picked up some bad habits like hogging RAM or logging in users without their permission. But in the face of Chrome's hegemonic presence, the field of competitors has gotten leaner, faster, and more interesting.

Vivaldi 2.0 browser is even more customizable, plus it now syncs across computersIf you want to step back from Chrome, the Vivaldi alternative browser just grew up a notch with the addition of cross-computer sync and other improvements in version 2.0. Vivaldi, with about 1 million people using it each month, doesn't have anything like the visibility or clout of Google's Chrome, Mozilla's Firefox or Apple's Safari.

@jonsvt @jonmccull Great update! I remember using it in its early days and oh boy! It has dramatically changed now. The only thing missing, so far, is the ability to individually keep certain cookies. I like to keep my cookie setting "session only" but for some cookies, like product hunt, I'd rather want the browser keep the cookie :) Other than that, I'm already planning to make it the default browser

@thatakke Nice, thanks for checking it out @thatakke! We do have a few ideas in the works on cookie management that would also address tracker issues. Feel free to have a look in the Feature Requests area too to check out the suggestions on this front that we're looking at: https://forum.vivaldi.net/catego...

@jonmccull I've been using Vivaldi for two years now and must say I really love it. I first switched when I heard that the previous Opera team founded it, and of course Tab Stacking!!!! Obviously Chrome extensions are a plus and this new account synching will help me sync my settings across devices. Thanks so much for a great browser. I honestly don't know what I would do without it!
